Reflection, Desires, and Strategic Thinking are very important factors when mastering ourselves. Leaders have ambitions, but measuring and testing those ambitions will make them real. Our desires are just desires if we dont do any actions. Leaders are capable of putting ideas in context and perspective. When we have ideas that we consider a good ones, we should communicate to others to make them happen and be real, because if we dont, it will stay just as an idea. When we attract and convince people of how good are our ideas, we are being successful and leaders at the same time. Leaders have inspiration, vision, and empathy which makes them have a better judgment on their actions.
In terms of Team Leadership, it has become very popular in organizational leadership. Teams that are well structured habe better chances of meeting their goals and being successful. Based on the chapter, team leadership is critical to achieving both affective and behavorially based team outcomes, so its very important to understand the functions of leadership. Effective team leadership falls into the leader’s mental model. One of the strenghts of the team leadership model is that it provides a cognitive guide that helps leaders design and maintain effective teams and specially when performance is below standards.
Deploying ourselves and knowing some tools to help make decisions in a team is very helpful to achieve our goals.
