I an busy reading the book “Just Enough Anxiety” by Robert Rosen, which proposes the following five tasks of leadership.

1. Leadership: Successful leaders willingly travel into the unknown.
2. Strategy: Successful leaders set an evolving course through ambiguity, complexity, and change.
3. Engagement: Successful leaders inspire and challenge people to perform beyond their own expectations.
4. Growth: Successful leaders learn and relearn in real time by stretching themselves and the business.
5. Innovation: Successful leaders imagine possibilities, discover opportunities, and release creative energies inside their organization.

I thought this a great summary of the five key tasks of leadership. How effectively are you performing these five leadership tasks?
