Leadership
2. Leadership from the Top
The managing director has a wider leadership role, which includes leading other leaders.
As a managing director, you should be aware of the following leadership responsibilities.
2.1 Create the vision, based on an understanding of strategic shifts and opportunities.
- The vision need not be something you can methodically plan your way towards.
- It must be worth the effort or it will not attract people and provide motivation.
2.2 Form the team and a structure that helps you deliver the vision.
- For a new line of business, you need to decide your business model: this will determine the infrastructure, people and level of investment that you will need.
