I have learned more clearly about the different types of leadership styles and how important it is to adapt your leadership style to the situation you are in at that time. Understanding how and when to change the leadership style is significant. I think this will help me to identify which style to use and when based on the risks that happen with each style.
I learned that we can adapt to different group of people and lead them utilizing the right model for that specific grooup
My leadership approach is centered around fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment. I believe in leading by example, demonstrating integrity, and maintaining open lines of communication. By actively listening to team members and valuing their input, I ensure that everyone feels heard and respected. Additionally, I focus on setting clear goals and providing the necessary support and resources to achieve them. This approach not only drives team success but also encourages personal and professional growth among team members.
I am very happy to find out about all those management styles and found out the one that I always been!
By setting a clear vision, fostering open communication, empowering team members, and leading by example, a leader can inspire and motivate others to reach their full potential.
I learned that I'm predominantly 2 styles, democratic and affiliative, but also that I have elements of the other styles as well, though not coercive. I came away with the understanding that it is okay and perhaps important to integrate various styles, dependent on the situation. Applying the wrong style in the wrong situation can have disasterous results.
Leading by example - Pacesetting is my preferred style. I want my team to know that set goals are achievable, and let's get it done. I also want to allow my team members the chance to develop and realize their full potential.
There are so many leadership qualities that create amazing leaders. Being a great listener and an adaptable coach for all of your team members is so crucial so you can coach them at the level that they are at, and in a way that is receptive to their coaching.
Two things came out of my obervations - (1) the different leadership styles and how they are always evolving; (2) the thought of legacy and how this can inspire someone to what to lead.
I was particularly interested in the various leadership styles. I want to be a good leader and not one that my employees do not like or do not respect, from experience I am learning what works and does not work for others, but also understand that I cannot make EVERYONE happy. I have to stay balanced, consistent and fair. I look forward to learning more and always looking at how to improve.
I think there is a fluidity between these styles. Maybe a dominate style but I flow between based on the team and their needs at this time.
I am familiar with leadership as a study and have previously identified my leadership style as a combination of Visionary, Coaching and Democratic. Although different 'styles' are utilized situationally they are all utilized to compel, motivate, visualize, self-empower others.
I thought that I knew my leadership style but have come to learn that those styles can change.
It is amazing to realize the various leadership types and my own approach
In this lesson I learned that we are not limited to one leadership style.
As a leader, I treat my team they way I want to be treated - professionalism, respect, integrity, caring, and engagement. I seek to inspire, motivate and challenge the team to common goals and purposes.
I can certainly agree with the idea being afraid to fail m team or my students in my role. But I will also say my fear of failure is a strength because I care about not only my own success but theirs as individuals as well. I have never been one to volunteer to be team leader, but I also understand that sometimes you have to do what is necessary even if it pulls you out of your introvert comfort zone.
The various types of leadership are interesting to me because I always felt leadership was based on personal style. But to truly be effective the leadership must be based on the given situation.
I find it hard to categorize my leadership style. Based on what is needed, I use aspects of each of the leadership styles presented.
I'm still learning what type of leader I am. This course has made me reflect on my leadership style
