What is a beautiful article. It made an awesome comparison about Good Leaders and Great Leaders and will really make you assess yourself to see which category to full in. In the article, author, Brent Gleeson, highlighted what these two types of leaders focus on. 

Good leaders focus on: 

•  Managing more than leading
•  The task not the result
• Commanding from the top
•  More talking and less listening
• Developing others not themselves
• Transactional leadership

Great leaders focus on:

•  The result not the task
• Leading and following
• Serving from the bottom
• Allowing creativity and innovation
• Developing themselves then others
• transformational leadership
