Leading for the Future Module 4 

Pre-work

As for the previous modules, please read the following articles and prepare your questions and comments about them:

  • Policing the Drumcree Demonstrations in Northern Ireland : Testing Leadership Theory in Practice (2007) by John Benington & Irwin Turbitt. The original article is in 'Leadership' Issue 3 (Volume 4), pp. 371-395. However, Irwin Turbitt has kindly given us permission to use an adapted version of the article. 
  • The Work of Leadership (Harvard Business Review. Jan/Feb1997, Vol. 75 Issue 1, p124-134) by Ron Heifetz & D Laurie in Harvard Business Review - which provides an explanation of the theory of "adaptive leadership".  Please note that Google sign in is required to access this article.

In addition:

Review the 7 Principles of Adaptive Leadership slides.  You can see on the first slide that the details of each Principle are included and on the second slide the details have been removed.  The headings on the second slide are editable to add text during the session if you wish.  You need to ensure you have access to your own copy of this for Module 4, or you can draw a copy, whichever suits you best, so you can use it during the session.   

Optional supplementary material building on themes explored in Module 4
