"[L]eadership involves setting or clarifying goals for a group and 
mobilizing energies of others to pursue them. Leaders engage in a 
number of different kinds of activities to accomplish this work, 
including making decisions, devising and implementing strategies, and 
assembling resources. Leaders deploy power, yet not all power holders 
are leaders. And although we can distinguish between leaders, 
managers, and governors, these forms of behavior are closely related 
and often intertwined. Some features of public leadership and 
leadership in higher education are distinctive, but 'family 
resemblances' can bring both public and private leadership under the 
same general rubric as types of human behavior. Leaders are involved 
in both admirable and deplorable enterprises and can be appropriately 
described as good ro bad depending either on their degree of 
effectiveness or on the moral quality of the goals they set and the 
methods that they use."
