Leader-Leader is a leadership movement that advocates the philosophy that all people at all levels of an organization can act as leaders.

The movement was begun by David Marquet. While Captain of the fast-attack submarine USS Santa Fe Capt Marquet initiated new mechanisms of behavior on the ship. These mechanisms created a structure where every member of the boat began to act as leaders. The boat proceeded to advance from "worst to first" in the fleet (squadron? Pac Flt?).

The philosophy is comprised of three parts, Competence, Control, and Clarity.

Competence: Control: Clarity:

With all three of these pillars in place an organization can move into Leader-Leader and become much more effective. An organization that follows Leader-Leader also produces leaders naturally from within. These leaders go on to run the organization for as long as the Leader-Leader philosophy persists. Thus the organization remains effective despite the tenure of "the person at the top."
