Abstract: Abstract After experiencing the global pandemic of COVID-19, there is no doubt that our world is volatile, complex, and uncertain. In this environment, there is no perfect leader—no ideal set of personality traits or leadership strategies that is perfect for every situation. To be successful, leaders must identify their strengths and weaknesses and then adapt to the situation at hand. Upon the advice of Ancona et al. (Harvard Business Review, 2007) who praise the “incomplete leader,” we must recognize that not only is it acceptable to be “incomplete,” but we can grow stronger together through distributive leadership. A new integrated framework of leader-personality is introduced to help the reader identify their own leader-personality profile and then identify others who can compensate where they are weak. The seven-part framework is grounded in personality psychology and leadership theory and underpinned by a biblical definition of personality.
