The Definition Of A Poor Leader!
It’s always fun to read leadership quotes and hear the varying opinions on the definition of a great leader. It’s one of those concepts, in which everyone seems to have an opinion about. Instead of defining what a great leader, we are going to define a Poor Leader. If you go to Webster and see how they define these two words separately, here is what you get:
- Leader- A Person or thing that leads
- Poor- Deficient or lacking in something specified, lacking in skill, ability, or training, deficient in desirable ingredients, qualities
If you combine the two you get something like: Poor Leader- A person in a leadership role that lacks the necessary skill, ability, and overall qualties to effectively lead. Although that is a “definition of a poor leader” it doesn’t necessarilly communicate my definition or your definition of a poor leader.
If I were to ask you to give me a definition of a poor leader, we could come up with some amazing quotes, thoughts and definitions. Instead of asking for a definition, I am wanting you the BigIsTheNewSmall thinkers to define a poor leader in one word. We did this same exercises with Great Leader, not long ago. Just like there is power in a quote, there is power in one word. These words will be unique to you, how you think, who you are, what you’ve experienced…
The Rules: Define a “Poor Leader” in one word. (You can use the same word that someone else used) You can’t use your boss or anyone else’s name!
I’ll go fist… Everyone please join in and who knows, you may see these words pop up in another post or somewhere else at a later date.
