Winner - 2022 Global Book Awards: BRONZE MEDAL / Business Development What kind of a leader are you? Supervisors get paid for the results they achieve through organizing and leading employees. That’s easy to understand. What isn’t so clear is how leaders go about getting results. New leaders tend to wing it by addressing the biggest fires first and hoping for the best, while leaders with limited experience tend to keep doing what seems to work, even when circumstances might call for a different approach. Part of figuring out how to lead is that not all situations call for the same type of leader, which is why seasoned leaders have many ways of perceiving and responding to people and events. So, what kind of a leader are you? Do you do well in some situations but flounder in others? Do you wonder if you could do better but don’t know where to begin?
