There are so many flavors of leadership. Many are packaged and branded this way by the leadership gurus. This potentially implies that my approach is right and yours is wrong. Just think about some of the variety for a moment: - Servant Leadership - EQ Leadership - The Marine Corp Way - Disney Institute Leadership . . . . and the list goes on. All have validity is certain situations. Deciding how to lead in the moment is the true measure of an experienced leader. The context in which we work and lead is not all clear cut black and white. Leadership is about navigating the grey stuff. This is a harder concept to teach! Thanks for your thoughts! Jim

Thanks for making me think. There are so many flavors of leadership. Many are packaged and branded this way by the leadership gurus. This potentially implies that my approach is right and yours is wrong.

Just think about some of the variety for a moment:

- Servant Leadership
- EQ Leadership
- The Marine Corp Way
- Disney Institute Leadership

. . . . and the list goes on. All have validity is certain situations.

Deciding how to lead in the moment is the true measure of an experienced leader. The context in which we work and lead is not all clear cut black and white. Leadership is about navigating the grey stuff. This is a harder concept to teach!

Thanks for your thoughts!
