Question

Leadership positions within teams can often be fluid and dynamic. Circumstances may require an individual to step forward and lead in some situations and then adopt the role of follower in others. As a leader, how do you know when it is appropriate to lead and when it is appropriate to follow? How can you foster leadership skills in your team members so they too feel confident enough to lead when the situation calls for it?

Answer 1

Ans)Leaders lead. We all know that. We always see them step up and effortlessly take charge.

- Look a little more closely at a good leader you know and you will notice there are times when these good leaders don't lead; they let others lead. They become followers. They become followers who are every bit as good at following as they are at leading when it's time for them to lead.

- Seven techniques will help you build a more confident, competent team:
• Treatthem with deep respect. No one wants to feel like a project.
• Be specific about what's right.
• Have them teach others.
• Help them prepare.
• Celebrate incremental improvements.
• Scaffold achievements.
• Encourage them through mistakes.
