Research has shown that authentic leaders are effective and build strong teams. Even with the transparency around the value of diverse leadership styles, assumptions can be made regarding how impactful an individual may be based on their personal style. For example, a team may assume an extroverted, directive leader will be stronger than an introverted, collaborative leader. During this session, we will hear from leaders with diverse styles to gain insight into building an inclusive team environment that leverages personal strengths and backgrounds.
Learning Objective : Upon completion of this session, the participant should be able to:
- Explain the value of diverse leadership styles
- Employ tools to challenge assumptions and confront unconscious bias
- Identify their personal leadership style
