The simpler an idea or tool, the better.
I keep using this simple concept in my leadership trainings:
Daniel Goleman's six leadership styles.
And the leaders I work with have so much to chew on. Things like:
'I never really thought there is another way to lead'
'What comes naturally to me, is not necessarily what is most effective'
'I'm happy with how I lead in most situations, except when ...'
It's not just insights. From there, you easily get to action plans.
It's a simple, powerful concept that has served me and others. And so I built a quiz based on it.
The quiz is short: 18 questions. You need <2 minutes to complete it.
Key insight:
You have your preferred, default way of leading - and you need to be flexible to shift to a different style if the situation requires it.
This is what you’ll get:
✅ Find out your preferred leadership style
✅ See how you score on each of the 6 leadership styles
✅ Get next steps for your action plan
