 Focus on the ProcessSteven S. Taylor Chapter Chapter Two in Leadership Craft, Leadership Art, 2012, pp 15-30 from Palgrave Macmillan Abstract: Abstract Imagine that you have just been promoted to be the director of consulting services at the small software company where you have been working as a client manager for the past couple of years. It is a newly created position, and the four client managers, your former peers, will report to you. What sort of leader should you be? Should you be participative as you recognize that things aren’t very different from last week when you were one of five client managers and you suspect that most of your time will be spent continuing to mange the client relationships you are personally responsible for? Or should you be authoritarian to establish yourself as being in charge? Or should you try to be charismatic or authentic or transformative? Should you focus on crafting a strong vision for the newly formed consulting services group? In short, what will it mean on a moment-by-moment basis for you to be the leader? What will you do as a leader, or in other words, what should the (creative) process of leading look like for you?
