Pitfalls of Leadership

THE PITFALLS OF LEADERSHIP - are you more like a bee or a lion?

Much has been written about leadership - its nature, its capabilities, its scope, its power and possibilities. In organizations we experience the impact of leadership - both in what it brings and what is missing - on a daily basis.

When thinking about your own exercise of leadership and the way you and other leaders shape your organization, you might like to reflect on the pitfalls of some leadership actions and consider their impact on your effectiveness and on your organization.

How are you building your capacity as a leader?

How are you assisting others to improve their management and leadership?

Are you strengthening your self-awareness, your values and your relationships?  Are you getting more skilled at thinking about your work?  Would you like to improve your management style or your ability to resolve conflict?
