We have looked at how colleagues prefer to be communicated with and how they prefer to work (see sessions - Creating positive working relationships - Communication styles and Why does that person prefer to work that way – Leadership and Teamwork)

But do we need to think about how we lead? Is there one way of leading more appropriate to our circumstances than another?

In this session we will look at situational leadership examples of where we can lead according to the situation. But also we will question whether we actually do change our leadership model, or do we default back to one method because it has worked for us in the past? We will examine the implications of each model, what it means for us as a leader or us as a team member.

By reflecting upon how we or others lead, we can question whether or how each method produces results.

A timely reflective and planning session for those moving into new roles or roles with more leadership requirements. It is best suited to those in later stages of their PhD or with employment experience to reflect upon.
