Social Leadership is leadership beyond the system. Your formal, structural power is held in the hierarchy. Your Social Authority sits in your reputation, and the trust and belief that others invest into you. Anyone may hold both types of power, but both exist in different contexts.
So in some ways, to understand Social Leadership is to understand where boundaries lie: between systems, between types of power, between tribes and communities.
Use your sixty seconds today to consider this: where do the boundaries lie around you?
And what crosses over them? Friendship? Blame? Responsibility? Stories? Voice? Power? Purpose? Or something else?
I hope you’ve had a great week!
