Leadership Resources

Earlier I wrote about being a bold leader. Here’s a collection of 5 great articles and posts on leadership:

• Eight Leadership Lessons From Martin Luther King, Jr. is great post by Michael Hyatt. Michael breaks down MLK’s famous ‘I have a dream’ speech into 8 qualities a leader must have. Not only does this post teach you something about leadership, it also has a video of the speech.
• The Time 100: Leaders and Revolutionaries, is a look at 20 leaders that had a huge impact in the last century.
• Leadership Lessons from Abraham Lincoln: Great insight regardless of whether you’re a manager, CEO, or the leader of a country.
• Leadership Lessons from Google: a review of the book Googled and a look at the appointment of Eric Schmidt to CEO.
• Now for something completely different. Leadership Lessons from Brett Favre: great lessons from football applicable to business. My favorite: throw a block down field

Only one man in a thousand is a leader of men — the other 999 follow women.
