Leaders are bombarded with countless theories, methods, and styles that promise to be the key to successful leadership. From transformational to transactional, from gentle leadership to traditional leadership, the choices are plentiful.
Choosing a leadership style that suits a leader’s personality and the company’s culture can be a challenge in itself. However, a crucial nuance that is often overlooked is that even when a leader finds the “perfect” style that suits him or her, it does not automatically result in effective leadership.
The danger lies in confusing being busy with productivity, with effectively making progress. The essence of effective leadership goes much deeper than just the chosen style; it is about the ability to distinguish between what is really important and what is just noise, and to tailor all activities accordingly.
