Training for Creative Leadership

Piers Ibbotson

Chapter Chapter 13 in The Illusion of Leadership, 2008, pp 119-124 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Most of the skills of effective leadership and good management are embodied knowledge, not intellectual: charm, decisiveness, compassion, enthusiasm, persuasiveness, the ability to listen, to be firm, to establish boundaries for others, to inspire. Such activities are mostly to do with being expressive, with being able to induce, in others, feelings and emotions aligned with the actions required of them. Encouraging patience and thoughtfulness in others is also an action that needs to be partly embodied. In the arts, it is only after mastery of the embodied skills has been achieved that a practitioner transcends their training and innovates.
