are those who inspire

circumstances; they are
the individuals who lift us
up and get us to the
results we did not see as
possible.”

8. Transformational Leadership
• Power is positional. Influence is
personal.
• Power is wielded. Influence is
granted.
• Power pushes. Influence persuades.
• Power is resented. Influence is
respected.
• Power expires. Influence endures.
