Leadership Mini MBA

Day One Situational Leadership

The fundamental underpinning of the situational leadership theory is that there is no single best style of leadership. Effective leadership is task-relevant, and the most successful leaders are those who adapt their leadership style to the maturity ("the capacity to set high but attainable goals, willingness and ability to take responsibility for the task, and relevant education and/or experience of an individual or a group for the task") of the individual or group they are attempting to lead or influence.

The Situational Leadership training program allows employees to understand that effective leadership varies, not only with the person or group that is being influenced, but it also depends on the task, job or function that needs to be accomplished. Students participating in this class also become familiar with the four behaviour types and associated maturity levels. The goal of this session is to give students the necessary tools required in order to become an effective leader in different situations.

  The leader’s role has shifted dramatically in recent years. In the past, the emphasis was more on the leader as “boss.” Today, leaders must be partners with their people; they can no longer lead with position power alone. Leaders must move from the “command-and-control” role of judging and evaluating to a role of ensuring accountability through supporting, coaching, and cheerleading.Situational Leadership® II has endured as an effective approach to managing and motivating people because it fosters a partnership between the leader and the people that leader supports and depends upon. In other words, Situational Leadership® II is not something you do to people; it is something you do with them.

  Coaches are trained to listen, to observe, and to customize their approach to individual client needs. They seek to elicit solutions and strategies from the client; they believe the client is naturally creative and resourceful. The coach’s job is to provide support to enhance the skills, resources, and creativity that the client already has.
