Leadership & Solve
A great leader always tells their team what to expect.
Has clear expectations
This leadership style involves giving strict orders and expecting them to be followed
Coercive (Yell, tell, & the hard sell)
This involves celebrating successes throughout the process of an activity.
Small wins
I don't care about conflict; I'm sure the situation will sort itself out.
Nothing (Avoiding)
I try to imagine how others may interpret and feel about what their role encompasses.
Trade positions (Empathize)
Before solving a problem, a team should first do this.
Set roles and clarify goals
If someone is confused about their job responsibilities, they are experiencing this stressor
Role uncertainty
As a team member, I just do the bare minimum of what I'm told without question.
Lazy & disengaged (sheep)
When I am discussing an issue I have, I specify why and how the behaviour was problematic.
Name the impact
As a leader, what I say ultimately goes, since I'm in charge.
Use formal authority
A good leader is honest and does the right thing.
Shows integrity
A leader who pushes their team to move quickly and meet high goals follows this style
Pacesetting (Energize & push)
Each team has its own way of doing things that has to be accounted for throughout the process
Member norms matter
Own your statement
During decision-making, I look to social norms and expectations.
Society says...
When solving a problem, it’s important to think of many possible solutions
List multiple strategies
When people feel like they have no control over a situation, they experience this stressor
Extreme lack of control
As a team member, I stand up for the leader, suggest my ideas, and put all my energy into the process and addressing any potential conflicts.
Fully engaged
At the end of a confrontation, I ensure to include this expression.
Thank you
Doing this can lower the heat of a situation.
Listening
A strong leader understands their own emotions and how others feel
Emotional intelligence
A leader who teaches and helps their team grow follows this style
Coaching (Teach & Coach)
When leading, it is important to be fair and welcome a variety of ideas and approaches from my team members.
Equity, diversity, and inclusion matters.
When things are tense, I intervene before an issue can arise.
Obviating
I consider how my decision-making is influenced by my associations and commitments beyond the competition.
How do loyalties affect you?
