Denning’s applications of
leadership are going to prove to be quite beneficial for me in not only a
professional capacity, but also a personal one. These leadership traits and skills
that Denning provides equip me with the tools needed to lead a team to accomplish
a common goal for any organization in any field.
Leadership that Participates – This
leadership dimension may be the most useful to me in the future, being that I
am a relationship-oriented leader who puts significant emphasis on building
relationships and engaging team members. Gaining trust, forming relationships,
and leading by example through engagement and participation are the core
behaviors that I should be displaying in order to be a participative leader.
Leadership that is like
Conversation – Part of being a relationship-oriented leader is communicating
openly and effectively with subordinates and managers. The key here is
communicating as equals rather than two different groups or types of people
that are not on the same level. By communicating as a member of your team,
rather than someone in a position of authority, you and the audience will relive
the story together. Active participation, increased attentiveness, and
engagement are just a few of the positive side effects of conversational
leadership.
Leadership that Fits the Modern
Need – Leaders in today’s workplace need to be dynamic and flexible to adapt to
changing business and organizational needs and wants. I would like to become a
manager by which the rules set forth by the organization are flexible enough
for my team to be dynamic, transformational, and high-performing. Possessing a
multitude of traits and qualities that good leaders should possess will make an
organization and its teams receptive and strong.
Good leadership cannot be summed up in these areas, but I hope to improve on these in order to be more effective and efficient.
