Characteristics of Effective Leaders
Outstanding leaders understand their strengths, recognize their blind spots, build productive relationships with co-workers, and regularly learn new skills to complement their natural ones. That’s the core philosophy of The Bailey Consulting Group.
Based on this leadership philosophy, we help prepare leaders for future success by helping them develop three core competencies:
Maturity
Developing self-awareness and self-management to gain perspective on one’s own behaviors and recognizing the role they play in reactions to events in and outside of the workplace.
Versatility
Understanding and becoming comfortable using multiple leadership styles: both forceful (taking stands, making judgments, leading personally) and empowering (showing compassion or flexibility, encouraging collaboration).
Relationship-Based Leadership
Recognizing the importance of engaging others, and becoming willing to do so, in order to achieve results, both through individual relationship-building and through team leadership.
