Vision is the essential ingredient for successful leadership. There’s no substitute. Without it, influence fades along with the crowds. This is especially true in business. Unless you, as a leader, have a clear picture of the destination where you want your company to be in three to five years, you’ve got nothing that will inspire people to follow you. “Leaders create things that didn’t exist before,” Seth Godin says. “They do this by giving the tribe a vision of something that could happen, but hasn’t (yet).” This is the primary difference between leaders and managers.
The Vision Driven Leader
Michael Hyatt
The problem is the inability to close the gap between what we genuinely, even passionately, want and what we are actually able to do. Closing this gap is a central learning problem of the twenty-first century.
Immunity to Change
Robert Kegan, Lisa Laskow Lahey
Languages differ not only in how they build their sentences, but also in how they break down nature to secure the elements to put in these sentences….By these more or less distinct terms we ascribe a semi-fictitious isolation to parts of experience. English terms, like ‘sky, hill, swamp,’ persuade us to regard some elusive aspect of nature’s endless variety as a distinct THING, almost like a table or chair. Thus, English and similar tongues lead us to think of the universe as a collection of rather distinct objects and events corresponding to words. Indeed, this is the implicit picture of classical physics and astronomy—that the universe is essentially a collection of detached objects of different sizes.”
