research into leadership and what makes an effective leader.\u00a0 This has given rise to a whole category or leadership styles.\u00a0 Which one is yours?<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>There are a variety of leadership models today, each having some shared characteristics but also having their own individual slant. \u00a0For simplicity, let\u2019s focus on three predominant styles and consider how they could apply to certain situations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Transactional:<\/strong>\u00a0 This style is based on the assumption that people are largely motivated by money and simple reward and so their behaviors in any situation are deemed to be predictable.\u00a0 Transactional leaders are likely to create clear structures based on rewards and punishments and operate through a clear chain of command.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Transformational:<\/strong>\u00a0 This type of leader assumes people will follow a person who inspires them.\u00a0 They believe a person with a vision and passion can accomplish great things; the way they get things done is to inject enthusiasm and energy.\u00a0 A transactional leader is likely to develop a vision for the future that will excite their followers.\u00a0 They are always visible and through their actions act as role models.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Quiet:\u00a0<\/strong> Don\u2019t underestimate the quiet leader.\u00a0 They believe action speaks louder than words and that people are motivated by being given credit rather than taking credit themselves.\u00a0 In other words, ego and aggression are neither constructive nor necessary.\u00a0 Quiet leaders are known to combine professional intent with personal humility, putting others before their own personal needs.<\/p>\n<p>In today\u2019s frenetic business environment, successful leaders must be able to be chameleon-like to be successful.\u00a0 Tomorrow we will explore the advantages and disadvantages to each style.<\/p>\n<p>Lisa DiTullio, Principal, Your Project
