The “Leadership Style” Myth

The subject of Leadership has been exhaustively covered over the decades. From Jim Collins’ Good to Great excellent research on the 5 levels of leadership to Kurt Lewin’s basic research that led to the 7 Leadership Styles:

• Autocratic. …
• Authoritative. …
• Pacesetting. …
• Democratic. …
• Coaching. …
• Affiliative. …
• Laissez-Faire.
• But are there other more foundational attributes of leadership that must exist to support a successful organization where there is fulfillment for both leaders and workers and where success is achieved in a joyful & exciting environment?

I believe there are!

In the coming blogs I will cover:

THE 9 critical “Human Attributes” that must exist if we wish to create an environment where Leadership Effectiveness, Employee Satisfaction & Loyalty, Customer Delight and ultimately Business Success and Excellence thrive:

1. A Loving & Caring Environment
2. A Joyful Environment
3. A Peaceful Environment
4. A Patient Environment
5. A Kind Environment
6. A Good Environment
7. A Faithful Environment
8. A Gentle Environment
9. A Self-Controlled Environment

In other blogs I discuss each of these “Human Attributes” and how each impacts the success of the organizations we lead.
