The last day of the symposium began with a workshop and analysis of leadership led by Robert Terry, Ph.D., a renowned expert in the field of leadership training. Using humor and wit, Terry provided a formal way to think about leadership. He asked the audience to determine for themselves how they define leadership according to eight dimensions of leadership as discussed in academic literature. In a robust discussion among participants, an awareness of distinct styles of leadership emerged. Every person is born with different capacities for leadership.
Leadership is learned.
Shared or collaborative leadership. Leadership is a process of interaction that occurs between leaders and followers to determine goals. Leadership may entail the exercise of force. It is not leadership if you have to use force. Leaders see possibilities where others do not.
