simply put, leading is setting direction and guiding others to follow

The European Industrial Relations Observatory (EIRO) is a monitoring
instrument offering news and analysis on European industrial
relations. A project of the European Foundation for the Improvement of
Living and Working Conditions, EIRO began its operations in 1997. Its
aim is to collect, analyse and disseminate high-quality and up-to-date
information on key developments in industrial relations in Europe. It
aims primarily to serve the needs of national and European level
organisations of the social partners, governmental organisations and
EU institutions.

TUC's partnership agenda wins qualified support from government and employers
In recent years, the TUC has been advocating a "partnership" approach
to industrial relations designed to promote improvements in employment
security, flexibility, training and competitiveness (UK9903187F). ?.
The TUC has therefore been keen to emphasise that the key element
trade unions bring to a partnership is an independent employee
"voice".
-------------------------------------------------
http://www.tuc.org.uk/partnership/index.cfm
Trades Union Congress
The TUC has a longstanding commitment to partnerships between unions
and employers. Partnerships at work can deliver higher productivity,
improved performance and successful changes to workplace organisation.
Partnership enables unions to play an active role in shaping an
organisation's policy and strategy, and increases union involvement in
organisational change.
