a new vision of what they can be, then mobilize the organization to change toward the
32
new vision. The leader is not only to lead people to achieve the goal and also to change
them, to commits them to action, and to convert them into leaders. This is the one of
characteristics of a successful leader refer to as transformative leadership. But leading

is not simply showing the way, maturity is also important for a leader. Every leader
needs to have empirical skills through capable of working with others, learning to be

dedicated, observant, and learning from others.

2.3.1.2 The principles of Bennis’s strategic leadership

Bennis dedicated the principles of leadership to the society, especially for
business leaders by encouraging them with the concepts of the vision, empowerment,

and organizational learning, and the trust and linking with four strategies: attention

through a vision through communication, a trust through positioning, and the
deployment of a self through a positive self-regard.

Strategies I: Attention through vision:

Management of attention through vision is the creation of focus. Leaders are
the most results-oriented individuals in the world, and results get attention. Their

visions or intentions are compelling and pull people toward them. Intensity is the
battery for their attention. And attention is the first step to implementing or

33
orchestrating a vision external to one’s own actions. To influence people every leader
must have a new vision for preparing what necessarily can be, mobilizing the resolution
to help their future community. The leader is not only to create a vision for certain

things that everyone can do, and also manage the future circumstances of what is going

to happen for himself and his group even it is not accurate.

T. E. Lawrence: All men dream; but not equally...but the dreamers of day are
34
dangerous men, that they may act their dreams with open eyes to make it possible.
