ACTION-CENTRED leadership model

John Adair’s action-centred leadership is a hands-on approach to leading and managing teams. 

It focuses on three main areas: setting objectives, motivating people and developing skills. 

Here are the steps for implementing this style of leadership:

1. Set clear objectives that are linked to team goals. Make sure everyone understands their role in achieving them.
2. Establish roles and responsibilities within the team so that each member knows what is expected from them. 
3. Use motivation techniques such as rewards and recognition to encourage team members to be more productive and engaged in their work.
4. Develop a plan for providing training and development opportunities so that every team member can reach their full potential as an individual contributor.
5. Monitor progress and give feedback to team members on a regular basis in order to ensure that the objectives are being achieved.
6. Leverage all available resources and provide support when needed to help the team reach their goals.
7. Celebrate successes together as a team, and use any setbacks as learning opportunities for future improvement.
8. Finally, recognize individual effort and contributions as well as collective achievement within the team.

John Adair’s action-centred leadership is an effective way to get teams working together towards a common goal – and enjoying the journey along the way!
