The primary goal of leadership training is to build a base of community leaders. General learning objectives are to increase understanding of the responsibilities of an organizational manager, to develop awareness of human dynamics that affect organizational management, and to enhance leadership and decisionmaking skills. Managing is defined as decisionmaking and taking action in using resources to achieve a purpose. Leadership is defined as an ability to require and inspire people to work effectively and efficiently toward accomplishment of a purpose. Success results from a combination of skill and will and from the acceptance of the responsibility to make events happen. Distinctions between authority and power are noted, with authority being a formal sanction to exercise leadership in group and power being an ability to accomplish goals without any formal authority. Power is related to an individual's personality characteristics and interpersonal skills. Responsibilities of an organizational manager are noted.
