Leadership
, Chapter one : introduction to leadership
1.1 Definitions
Leadership = the process of influencing others towards the realisation of a shared goal.
Leaders = individuals who have a differential influence on the initiation, direction and coordination of group
activities, over and above the influence associated with formal authority.
Are leaders born or made? → discussion about this is very present.
• Leadership is a dynamic influential process, not a position or a static label.
o e.g. a CEO isn’t necessarily also a leader
• Everyone exercises some form of leadership.
• Leadership can be developed.
• The effective leader behaviour/ styles are context specific.
• Women and men are equally effective as leaders.
• Many leadership practices are universal, and some are culturally specific.
• Being a leader contains certain pitfalls.
1.2 Training versus development
Leadership training versus development → dev. has more complex and holistic challenges associated with changing
the inherent behavioural tendencies of human beings.
“Compared with relatively straightforward skills acquisition through training interventions, leadership developmental
initiatives take on more complex and holistic challenges associated with changing the inherent behavioural
tendencies of human beings”
The individual development of a leader is lifelong, based on the fact everyone experiences life differently and leaders
follow different growth patterns.
The 70-20-10-rule
• 70: challenging assignments e.g. job transitions, obstacles
• 20: developmental relationships e.g. coaching, mentoring, feedback programmes
• 10: coursework and training e.g. classes, reflection, “knowledge”
