From Leadership Techniques to Leadership Style: Developing Leadership Capabilities that Make a Difference

Join our MBA masterclass delivered by Prof Christian Linder who will talk us through the different leadership techniques and styles, as well as their impact on one's success as a leader.

Leadership techniques can be seen as useful toolkits for addressing leadership challenges in daily business life. Typically, such toolkits answer the question on what to do in a given situation. As every technique, leadership techniques can be taught and learned easily. Thus, the standards leadership techniques are widely known and often applied. Leadership style, however, is a personal expression of values involving elements of taste and aesthetics. Style is a pattern on how things are done.

This masterclass will argue that leadership techniques are necessary to survive in a leadership role, but they are not sufficient to be successful. It is a unique and distinct leadership style that will determine one's leadership success.

This masterclass will also provide a further overview on leadership style elements and how to develop them in professional life.
