The meaning of the word Mastery as defined by Art Kleiner, “Mastery, as we use the word today, reflects maître. It means the capacity not only to produce results, but also to “master” the principles underlying the way you produce results” – -from The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook by Peter Senge, et. al.

In his book, The Servant, author James C. Hunter defines Leadership as “the skill of influencing people to work enthusiastically toward goals identified as being for the common good”.
