Definition

  • Leadership is the process by which a leader influences another person or group and focuses the followers' behavior on a goal or outcome. Persuading a subordinate to clean up his or her work area could be seen as a form of leadership, as could convincing hundreds of people to volunteer for disaster relief work.
