"The first step is to distinguish leadership from management. “Management is about handling complexity,” explains Docker, while “leadership is about creating simplicity. It’s about cutting through the noise, identifying what's really important, making it personal for people, bringing them together and connecting them.” ~ Peter Docker in Venteur Magazine January 2023
