Introduction to Leadership

The 4D Leadership Development Framework defines the roles, functions, and relationships essential for all leader levels (supervisors, managers, middle management, and executives). This module addresses leadership from a holistic and comprehensive approach.

We must consider a leader's leadership style, relationship-building techniques, and ability to adjust to the problems and challenges that today's fast-paced world presents. In this module, you will be introduced to four innovative leadership styles and how they can affect an organization’s goals and strategic initiatives. You will also take a leadership assessment to learn our leadership styles and the advantages and disadvantages of each leadership style.

Navigating organizational uncertainty, change, and chaos is one of the most important challenges facing profit and non-profit leaders today. In the past, leaders dealt with uncertainties but frequently waited for complete information with predictable outcomes before deriving strategic decisions. Now, in an environment of rapid change and uncertainty, leaders must not only anticipate and embrace change but make decisions with little information in an unpredictable environment. There is nothing more challenging than leading during times of organizational change, uncertainty, crisis, and chaos. That said, leading in a world of complexity and uncertainty requires new leadership with a different mindset, fresh perspective, and innovative skills.
