Effective leadership requires flexibility based on goals and situations pertaining to each circumstance individually. Effective leadership also requires self-discipline.

There are always new things to learn, and you must listen and adapt. No two people are exactly alike, and they each need/deserve leadership that helps them reach their fullest potential.

In an institution, no matter what your position may be, everyone demonstrates their own leadership.  Some people lead by example, through inspiring words, or through delegation, whatever it may be, that creates your leadership legacy and how others will remember how you chose to lead.  Leadership can grow through learning and developing skills.  

A shared vision with leaders and audience can influence internal and external challenges.  By modeling great behavior in leadership, this can help the team to reciprocate the same.

Reading the room and evaluating the situation/audience can be beneficial to see if you need to change up your leadership style.  Great leadership also includes the ability to adapt to the situation.

Leadership is comprised of three elements: leader, follower, and situation.  Analyzing each component on its own can help to evaluate the quality of the leadership.  Each element affects the others.

Good leadership will propel people to work harder, therefore creating better outcomes for the institution.  Showing commitment and leading by example are significant for creating an ideal leadership.

There are different types of leadership styles, and leaders can work with any of the different styles, and do not have to be just one style.  The desire to lead is a significant component in leadership.  There are many different personalities you work with, so leaders can adapt to the different leadership styles.

leadership and management is different and most company will need both because leaders are visionaries and managers are the one that make it happen with the team.

I learned that a manager can also be a leader, with the right attitude. the most important thing in both a leader and a manager is considering what needs to be done for the company and relaying the objective to your staff in a professional manner.
