Leadership isn't about your job title - it's about behavior. This revolutionary insight forms the foundation of "Spark," a book that has transformed organizations from FedEx to the military by revealing how anyone can become a catalyst for positive change. The military has perfected the art of creating these catalysts - people who step forward saying "I'll lead this" regardless of rank. In today's volatile, uncertain world, organizations desperately need these Sparks at every level, not just in management. While the military trains everyone to be a leader from day one, most civilian professionals never receive this crucial development. The result? Managers who lead without preparation and talented individuals who don't see themselves as leaders because they lack formal authority. Many would-be leaders are held back by persistent myths. The first myth - that leaders are born, not made - crumbles under scrutiny. When Courtney joined the Marine Corps seeking transformation, she discovered leadership wasn't about innate talent but character development. Training pushed her past physical exhaustion to mental endurance, proving she was a "made" leader who developed through deliberate practice. Another dangerous myth is that leaders should trust their instincts. In reality, effective leaders challenge their gut reactions, which often lead us to avoid conflict or procrastinate on decisions. True leadership requires cognitive flexibility and discipline to inhibit instinctual reactions. When people start viewing themselves as leaders, they stop feeling constrained by hierarchy, take initiative with complex challenges, and quit waiting for direction.
