A person in charge is in a position of authority, true. In other words, people will do what he/she says because they have to comply in order to keep their jobs, etc. That ain't leadership, though. A leader will inspire people to WANT to do things. In other words, they inspire commitment and don't rely only on their authority to demand compliance. Following a person's orders is not the same as following a person. Not so, Wally! A person in charge is in a position of authority, true.

He said, "You aren't a leader just because you get promoted." But the fact is that you are. Just about the only thing that all of us leadership folks agree is common to leaders is that leaders have followers. And when you become responsible for the performance of a group you immediately have followers. The people you're in charge of will treat you like a leader. They will pay attention to what you say. They will modify their behavior based on what you say and do. The question isn't IF you're a leader when you get promoted. It's what kind of leader will you be.
