What Are Leaders Really For?, HBR Blog Network
 









Excerpt: By refusing to name a leader, Occupy Wall Street presents a challenge
to this view. With no one figure to credit or blame, with no face to put on a
sprawling inchoate movement, and with no hierarchy of power, we simply don't
know how to process what "it" is, and therefore how to think about it. And
because this absence of a familiar personality-centric narrative makes us
uncomfortable, we are tempted to reject the whole thing as somehow not real. Or
instead, we insist that in order to be taken seriously, the movement must first
change to reflect what we expect from serious organizations �" namely a
charismatic leader to whom we can attribute everything.
