My reflection is that leaders flourish according to situations. Followers adapt to different leaders in different situations. 

Depending on the situation, I've learned that as a leader I have to be prepared to switch up my leadership style. 

I learned that I need to take time to look at my own leadership style.  I have also noted that the leader, follower, and situation all interact together and it is through this interaction that can make things run unsuccessfully or smoothly. 

Comment on Adriano Parisi's post: Spot on - purpose and creating trust and hope are all vital.  Which leads to the forth pillar: getting results. 

 

A leader should continuously monitor purpose, inspire an environment of trust, communicate hope to the team and evaluate result results to celebrate achievements or do adjustments to increase performance.

The qualities of a manager and a leader definitely overlap; but a there's a lot of confusion when defining the two roles. I will apply this information by paying closer attention to the attributes of each and choosing my language in a way that improves clarity when discussing the two roles. 

Update current plan

50% of employees leave jobs because of bad managers.

I agree - leadership is about the ability to influence people and can occur at any position - it does not automatically come with a title change or promotion. 
 
 
 
 
 

It goes both ways some managers cannot influence their team and some leaders know how to influence but not manage their team.
