Leaders as Gardeners

Work In Progress!

A highly adaptive organisation needs to shift the leadership model away from the one that controls and makes decisions to a leader who fosters an environment where teams can do their best work. [1]

✿ Creating a shared consciousness through extreme transparency
✿ Empowering teams to make decisions and pivot without seeking approval
✿ Giving teams problems to solve, not solutions
✿ Deliberately investing time and effort into building trust
✿ Cultivating an environment where teams can do their best work
