Seven perspectives. One way.
Leadership, team, values, strategy, power, dilemmas and society: seven blogs about good leadership. Freely accessible, practical and connected with each other.
Seven blogs.
One goal: good leadership.
Each blog sheds light on one side of leadership: with explanations, real-life examples and tools you can apply right away.
How do I lead myself and others?
The 21 principles and 21 qualities of good leadership, explained and backed by more than 200 examples.
How do individuals become a strong team?
Trust, collaboration and shared responsibility: with models, examples and exercises for everyday teamwork.
What do we stand for, and how does it show?
Clarify, live and pass on values: for you, your team and your organisation. With a values check and your own values crest.
Where do we want to go, and how do we get there?
Clear direction instead of busyness: principles, reflection questions and tools that help leaders develop and implement strategy.
How do I handle power responsibly?
Understand power and influence, use them wisely and never abuse them. For leadership that builds people up instead of cutting them down.
Which way do I go when both are right?
Leadership dilemmas and paradoxes such as closeness and distance or control and trust. Every entry with a source, an example and the question: decide or hold the tension?
How do we help shape society?
Faith, family, education, government, media, business, and arts and sports: what good leadership achieves in the seven spheres of society.
How the blogs connect
Leadership works from the inside out: from you through your team and your organisation into society. Values carry the whole. And on every level you encounter two themes: influence, and tensions for which there is no simple solution.
Choose a level, a pillar or the foundation.
