Does leadership have an effect on project success?
Is there a difference between management and leadership?
Can leadership be learned?
The answer to all these questions is yes.
In this article, I look at six essential attributes of project leadership. This is not a complete list, but one that provides a good jump start to successful project leadership.
1. Lateral Thinking
The first essential attribute, lateral thinking, represents a variety of methods to get us out of our ?usual way of thinking.? In essence, lateral thinking breaks down the instilled and predetermined patterns we often employ when working on a problem.
Through lateral thinking, project managers try different perceptions, concepts, and points of entry. They consider multiple possibilities and approaches instead of a single approach.
The variety of perspectives used in lateral thinking allows us to solve difficult project challenges more successfully.
2. Empowerment
Often, there is little recognition given to people who spend time solving elementary problems. And yet, it?s those problems that can plant the seed for bigger, more complex problems.
Typically, and because of preset leadership attitudes, employees develop the habit of ignoring an issue until it becomes unmanageable. Often, leaders seek to go on record for being a problem solver.
