Alan Dayley says: As a leader, Empowerment is not enough.

Empowerment sounds like a good thing - right? What Alan is sharing is that this isn't enough. We talk through a leader/follower spectrum and identify different styles of leadership, and the types of followers that they help create. Alan makes a strong case for the manager to be a catalyst that inspires co-leaders. If you are a manager ( in almost any capacity/environment) this discussion should provide you value. How you lead, helps create behaviors in those you lead.
