My message
- Organizations need effective leadership to prosper. We should view leadership from the position of those being led. It is the positive impact that leaders have on those who they seek to lead that indicates their effectiveness.
- The transition from being led to leading others is an underestimated process, as are the transitions to more senior roles that make differing demands. Leadership development means supporting individuals in making sense of the changes required of them, and of their life experience.
- Individuals increasingly rely on their influencing skills to be effective in organizations. An understanding of their behavioral preferences enables leaders to be more flexible and successful in demonstrating the informal leadership that current organization structures require.
- Life usually matches the positive expectations I have of it.
