Culture Bytes: Many leaders aren’t really leading
In this Culture Byte solo episode, Sue discusses the concept of the leadership bundle and its importance in the organization's future success. She explains that leadership is about activities that make something better for the future and recommends defining and practicing a bundle of core leadership tactics. Sue emphasizes the need for leaders to focus on proactive, positive, and results-oriented practices rather than getting caught up solely in supervisory or management tasks. She also highlights the benefits of adopting a leadership bundle at both the individual and organizational level.
- A leadership bundle is born out of the questions “what is leadership?” “what do leaders do?” and “how do we lead around here?”
- Leadership is about engaging activities that make something better for the future.
- The Capstone recommended leadership bundle consists of nine core leadership practices that work together synergistically.
- To support improvement and growth initiatives, leaders engage in proactive, positive, and results-oriented practices over supervisory or management tasks.
