Leadership is the application of soft power to
influence individuals and groups towards
the achievement of a goal.
![Page 45: Leadership Theory](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102921/5458142eaf7959de728b6634/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Leadership takes place at multiple
levels at any given time,
where-in one situation may
require multiple styles of
leadership.

Leadership is a self-referential
learning process, and happens as much within the self as between
people.
