Читать книгу Reframing Academic Leadership - Lee G. Bolman - Страница 40

Leadership works when relationships work – and fails when they don't. Leaders’ self‐awareness and interpersonal skills are central to their effectiveness, but may be insufficient for the challenges of academic life. When relationships go awry, leaders often know what they intended, but not what they did to contribute to unsatisfactory outcomes. As a result, they often blame others instead of learning how to do things better. The best leaders are persistent and proactive in reflecting on their behavior and in learning from those around them. They seek feedback, test assumptions, work on balancing advocacy and inquiry, and learn about their own habitual patterns of action.
