Read Online THE 15 MINUTE GUIDE TO ESSENTIAL LEADERSHIP SKILLS IN THE WORKPLACE (15 Minute Guides to Workplace Skills) DOC
Different businesses in different situations often require different styles of leadership. In our experience, many managers of small to medium enterprises have excellent technical skills but often lack the ‘soft skills’ required to get the best performance from their team. In this short guide we lay out some basic theory and key leadership behaviours which managers and others can apply in the context of their own business or job. You will learn the difference between leadership and management and appropriate leadership styles you can apply in the workplace. We explain why emotional intelligence is important, and you will read what some very successful and influential industry leaders say about their own leadership styles. Also included is what you can do to become a more effective leader along with a quick self assessment quiz to test your current level of leadership skill.
