What Exactly Is Leadership?

Season 1,   Sep 11, 2020, 10:50 AM

Everyone has a slightly different idea about "Leadership." We all know what a good one looks like, equally we recognise a poor one - So what?

So, what is Leadership exactly? John & Rachael lift the lid on Leadership and in doing so they also draw comparison with management. The terms are often used synonymously, yet we find out that the roles demand very different attitudes, disciplines, and behaviours.

Leadership Essentials

  1. Great leaders inspire action; focussing on the inputs and not just the outputs
  2. Leadership is not management
  3. Cultivate a non-directive and consultative approach

In the Coaching Approach we catch up with Janet who is having a difficult time learning about the impact she is having on her team; transitioning from being the effective manager who was on top of everything, to a growing awareness of her reputation as a new leader.
