  7. We considered that some behaviours matched some of the leadership styles • If you need to TELL someone something [ Authoritative] • If you need to SELL a concept to the team [Consultative] • If you want the team to PARTICIPATE then be [supportive] • If you want to ENABLE a team (under caution – see self directed teams) [delegative]

  8. Quotes Leadership is not a position. It is a combination of something you are (character) and some things you do (competence). A leader is someone you choose to followto a place you wouldn't go by yourself If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader. A leader must have the courage to act against an expert's advice The leaders who work most effectively think "we"; they think "team." Good leaders must first become good servants “A leader is best when people barely know they exist, when their work is done, their aim fulfilled, people say: we did it ourselves.” Setting an example is not the main means of influencing others, it is the only means

  9. Leader’s promote creativity in the workplace When we think of leaders we know, how well are they at promoting creativity in the workplace? This means that new ideas are created to come up with solutions to current or future problems.. • In order to promote ownership and a sense of responsibility, allowing a work team to find their own solutions is a key trait of good leadership. • Follow the links on the next page to find out more…
