Leadership facilitates people moving forward.
Representation, at best, manages to the lowest common denominator or at worst, represents only the people who put him/her in position.
Leadership accepts the hard realities and shows a way through those, most times through their own actions.
Representation practices 'ole' management'. A tough reality comes to them and they pass it on to the next person down the line without providing any assistance at all. " . . . travels down hill"
Leadership believes that his/her highest calling is to enable the success of those who look to him/her.
Representation views their team's role as ensuring his/her well-being and success.
Often Leadership is unaware of its value because they concentrate on building the value of others.
Representation mostly sees their own value and anything that might build or threaten it.
Leadership builds an enduring path for its shareholders and team members.
Representation builds a path for itself.
Leadership is about others.
Representation is ultimately about itself.
