Week 1

Who is a Leader?

• A leader is anyone who influences a decision.
• The size of the decision or who is deciding doesn't change a leaders role.
• A leader can be anyone, sometimes being a follower is being a leader.

This is a picture of my influence, and who influences me.

• In order to fully explore an idea, use a group of diverse people. 
• Empathise with the customer

• Can be useful in any discipline
