    High Performance Leadership

    Uploaded by

    Mack JM Ray
    This document discusses high performance leadership and how to develop it in organizations. It argues that effective leadership is distributed and shared among many leaders at different levels of the organization, not concentrated in one individual. High performing leaders focus on developing other leaders, set ambitious goals, and build professional learning communities rather than prioritizing themselves. They also resist complacency and work to continuously improve and sustain high performance over time through distributed models of leadership.
