Shared Leadership
A new leadership approach
Michael Makowski
Shared Leadership
Leadership can be explored as a social process -
something that happens between people. It is not so much
what leaders do, as something that arises out of social
relationships. As such it does not depend on one person, but
on how people act together to make sense of the situations
that face them.
Pearce and Conger
Leadership
Leadership has been described as the process of
social influence in which one person can enlist the aid
and support of others in the accomplishment of a
common task.
Leadership is about leaders and followers.
Pearce and Conger
Shared Leadership
Leaderhip:
- focus on individuals taking decisions and
aligning the organization to follow decisions in
order to reach strategic goals
- group processes and teamwork
About the followers:
Transactional leadership is effective in the case of
dependent followers.
Transformative Leadership needs independent
followers and independent followers won’t accept
transactional leadership.
Only followers with a consciousness of inter-
dependency will be able to apply shared leadership.

and this Is not connected to leaders.
