Whether you’re a CEO, an entrepreneur, a sales executive, a professional, or you don’t have any leadership title at all, you can be a leader and a good one. It does involve certain kinds of risk, and a vision and passion for something important, but it is possible. With the right mindset, it’s even likely.
