I'm doing my first course on leadership and have to write an essay on my personal leadership style. I was really struggling with it because I've never been in a leadership job role and thought I didn't have a leadership style! Thank you for this video, it's helped me more than any of my lectures have, and it's helped me understand that I do have a leadership style.
I'm involved with a job search assistance program for seniors (SCSEP); and as part of the program we are assigned to do training exercises that involve watching videos that can help us with finding jobs and being more successful at work. In my opinion, some of the videos we watch suck, some are OK, and some are pretty great. This video is one of the ones I thought was really great! I took lots of notes.
Extremely thankful to you for condensing your thoughts and laying out the tenets of leadership and its styles!💜
HI Alex, I would like to say thank you for the video. It helps me to understand easily about all the leadership theories in one plane at one time. Thank you.
The presentation is captive of the essence of each theoretical framework overview and introduction. It is easy to refresh your memory if you are embedded in the scholarly background knowledge of the subject matter. As someone who studied the theory in depth I found it easily refreshing.
Read the entirety of the Northouse and Hackman books because of your video around 6 months ago. Really helped me understand what type of leadership styles best suits me. I'm a soccer coach and your work in communication and leadership has really help me. Thanks.
So great to hear that, Sajjad. That book is a great resource. I'm happy to also hear that you're benefiting from the channel.
Woohoo Sajjad, you're amazing and doing incredible work in sports. Great to hear that.
What a wonderful find! I was guided here through my grad school course work and see it's relevance in my community, professional, and personal work. I will definitely be checking out those books, loved those examples, and just subscribed!
Glad it was helpful!
This is one of the most engaging presentations I've listened to. Well done.
Thanks, P. Clare. I appreciate it.
Thanks for the enlightening lecture.
It came in at the right time when I'm taking a course in strategic leadership.
I have been listening to these YT in the past 2wk since I came across you Prof Lyon. Great work Prof. Thank
I really like and appreciate your style of coaching. Each time I view this video, I learn more about my self and where I land on the spectrum.
I appreciate that!
I had always been taught everyone is simply born with a tendency toward a certain leadership style. It was so HELPFUL to hear you say that the best way to approach management is to know the needs of your team, than use the most appropriate style to meet their needs. Leadership styles can be LEARNED like any other discipline. Yay Greenleaf! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Alex! Fellow New Yorker here😊. A few years ago I was thrown into a leadership position when three mid-management employees quit or/and resigned within two weeks. The existing leadership did not- would not, chose not to, or was not skilled enough ( I still don't know which one applies to this day), to cultivate me to lead my team. Since then, I've turned to platforms such as TH-cam and others to hone my skill. It's been a wondrous, sometimes painfully educational journey..lol. Present-day I turn to you and your gifts of profound and practical leadership teaching. I must say, you've been one of the most impactful Teachers I've come to identify with. I don't know where I would be in my efforts if God didn't lead me to you. Thank you so much for your compassionate confident and thorough style. Your gifts are truly valued with this freshman subbie!!!!💥 I've recently been promoted to a top Management position. I look forward to the challenge and only aspire to lead beyond well and affect positive change. I hope to impact the lives of my followers in a life-changing & empowering way, so that they may also meet their purpose daily and into the future.
Congratulations on your career climb. I'm honored that my videos have helped. Thank you so much for sharing your story.
@@alexanderlyon ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨☀️
This was so informative and insightful! I will be re watching this and taking notes. Thank you!
“Good Leaders”. Are not always Good People. I would rather have an honest leader than a “good leader”.
Here here. Put not your trust on mortal men, we are admonished. Good people are hard to find though. Spotting a lie or recognizing a liar can be considered as almost a superpower these days. Us mortal men can only hope to be more discerning so as not to be led astray.
The most interesting definition of leadership I've ever seen.
Why?
Part of being good is being honest. No such thing as genuinely good without honesty in it.
Hello from Mumbai. Glad i found your channel just 10 days before my competitive State level exam
Thank you for making this. You are an excellent mentor.
Wow, Jason. Thank you. I appreciate that and I'm glad you're benefiting from the channel.
This was an interesting synopsis of a couple of Northouse chapters, well done.
I'm learn in third year second semester course on leadership theory and concepts.Then I love your style as it is very understandable!!
Coming from the STEM fields with no exposure to this subject, this social science lecture was an excellent and comprehensive coverage about leadership. I wish I knew this 30 years ago!!!
Thank you. Your presentation is down to earth
Thank you! Surprisingly engaging, accurate, and concise! Useable information and PDFs. Thank you very much! WOW!
Glad it was helpful, Elizabeth.
This was great and easy understandable presentation. Thank you for your time and effort.

Glad it was helpful!
It was a joy learning these theories from you..Great work and nice presentation.

Cant thank you enough, it was great. I watch the whole video thanks doctor. Much love
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amaizing compilation thank you for the class
Excellence: concise, evidence based and credible. Great video👍
Thank you kindly, Vass. I appreciate that.
This is a fantastic presentation. I love your style as it is very understandable. I have worked in all of these leadership environments. Seeing more of these types of videos I believe would be helpful, as it helps you figure out where you are in the process as an employee or in a leadership role.
Glad it was helpful, Willie. Thank you for your positive feedback.
So many Leadership styles explained so clearly! It was very educational. Thanks for making this video 🙂
Glad it was helpful.
Wahoo, I have been looking for these videos talking about leadership Theories. very concise and to the appoint. thanks
Great work. For me, leadership is mostly distributed among team members, rather than the act of one person. Remember: these theories have little empirical support, and are mostly personal observations of "I did it my way" corporate bosses.
Most of the models and theories in this video were born out of academic research that studied real leaders through empirical research that was initially published in peer-reviewed journals. I cited some of those book and articles in the description and I mentioned them along the way. However, it is true that most of the leadership theories we hear about in popular press books or from professional speakers are from authors who are simply creating a model out of their own individual experience.
Leadership theories well explained. Thank you
Thank you for this great video!!!
Thank you for this amazing course it was so helpful
Glad it was helpful!
This has been a great highlight to me.
I am from India 🇮🇳❤️ its really worth session I had learned a lot .Thank You
Alex, you're my favorite!!
This is nice theory, it would be helpful to have a hands on lecture for every day working environment.
All made sense. thank you
Thank for your amazing presentation. I’m inspired by this and I’m worrying about how to get this course cause for my English, I’m Vietnamese, even I’ve finished Northouse’s book, Leadership theory and practices.
Glad to hear this Ken!!!! Glad you're working on yourself, keep it up.
Amazing presentation
You are great for Leadership. Thanks for your VDO.
It's my pleasure! Thank you.
Thankyou for all this fascinating content
Thank you for your positive feedback, Trisha.
Off the shelf mini course. Great stuff and amazingly presented.
Thank you for your encouragement. It's a pretty specialized topic but I'm hoping the people who are looking for something like this will find it to be helpful.
The meaning of effective Leadership
Effective leadership is the ability to successfully influence and support a team or group of people. It’s important to point out there’s much more to effective leadership than just delegating from the top. A great leader is also a great negotiator. And a negotiator is only successful if they have a deep understanding of what they value, and an ability to convey it to their counterpart(s).
Adapting one’s leadership styles in order to do this is essential, giving a negotiator the opportunity to know when to hold firm to a position and when cede it in the interest of gaining a stronger agreement. Am I reading in Ethiopian Civil Service University Student of development engagement.
I've been digging your videos, thank you for making them. Do you have any about teaching or coaching? I found lots of your topics very applicable to what I do but would love a deep dive on those specific topics from you.
Hi Brenden. I don’t have any specific videos on teaching or coaching. It is an interesting topic and of course I do it personally. In someways, I hope that people will find the basic lessons and then look for a way to apply them to their own situation.
@@alexanderlyon thank you for the reply! I have many years of experience coaching and teaching and was putting together some talking points for a training course and stumbled across your channel. I'm glad I did. Keep up the good work and thank you again!
What a great resource! This video is a wonderful synopsis of what I've studied in my Leadership Theory class. We use Northhouse's textbook; well worth the investment. Kudos and Thank You!
Glad it was helpful. Northouse has a great book.
Great book suggestion about Northhouse, great stuff.
this is simple and comprehensive. can you please explain the three style model where he discusses the participation, authoritarian and delegation to be a a perfect leader.
I think for the 3 leader styles of autocratic, democratic, and laissez-faire, using some combination of this, tailoring it to a situation, seems to be the best strategy, rather than rely on one or identify solely with one, though one can have tendencies toward one of them due to one's situation/environment.
I think an error was made though in classifying the leader styles. I think laissez-faire should really be two categories: (1) mentor-hero and (2) laissez-faire or libertarianism. The mentor-hero style means the hero is the one in charge, but he gets help and advice from the mentor. This is more of Warren Buffett's style, from what I have heard, as being an "over the shoulder" approach to management. So, I would rather there be 4 leadership style categories than 3.
Great 👌 Simply Anything is possible if we work together.
Thanks you a lot may God bless you, I am a charismatic one.
Thank you so much
The Blake, Mouton, and McCanse Managerial Grid reminds me of a video clip I'd seen of Jordon Peterson describing the clashes between persons high in Conscientiousness (task oriented) and high in Agreeableness (people oriented), and the challenges faced by individual persons who, within themselves, are both highly Conscientious and also highly Agreeable. I suppose the persons like those have the potential to grow into highly adaptive leaders (Situational Leaders?), but it's definitely not going to be easy; those are hard concerns to balance.
Thank you so much, amazing material
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for the encouragement.
@@alexanderlyon I'm taking my masters in public health, doing public health leadership module now, this lecture has been really helpful
Thank you soooo much... Really helpful.
Glad it helped!
Honourable Halifa Sallah of The Gambia fits well the Leadership traits described.
This is amazingly valuable!
Hi, I cant find the link to your references as you mentioned. Thanks for the good job.
Outstanding
This is amazingly valuable!👍
Glad it was helpful, Frances. Thanks for the feedback.
This is helpfull. Thanks
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Very informative and interesting! I noticed that I didn't hear one "uhm" or "ah" in the videos. Outstanding!
Thank you, Claudia. I used to have more fillers when I first started public speaking but I made an effort to get rid of them. In fact, I made an old video about how to stop using filler words. By the way, I'm sure I still use fillers once in a while. A small number of fillers is totally fine and can add a conversational feel to a speaker's message. When people start to notice and count them, then that's a big distraction.
@@alexanderlyon I will definitely check out your other videos. Your presentation is very interesting and to the point. Already shared your page with my fellow students as well. 👌🏼
Beautiful explaination.
Glad it was helpful!
very good presentation.
I learned a lot from you. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
This looks fascinating!
Thanks! It's not going to go "viral" but I'm hoping this will be helpful for the right viewers.
Thanks. Important and perfect .
So nice of you.
Wonderful explanation!!!
Glad you think so!
Thanks Alex because your contribution can give us so much pieces of advices on personal trait styles of our behaviours of leading how to manage ours and others to be an originise our motatives as born qualities to be more progress on our reign to our public and many intellience leaders and high level personalities leaders and born geniues
Most time I think people oriented whatever like self directed personalities
Time to time go on process on is situational leadership I think
Transational leadership I think prize and punishment are accompanied to be motivated as a good great personalties
Bill Gate
Transformation leadership can shape most of personalties on political and religious leaders or preAch
John F kennedy , princess Dina, Gandi are I think the ideal roles for this leadership personalities
I am listening, hoping I can pick up quickly some tools/help dealing wiith severe family conflict, that needs to be confronted, in the midst of one member with terminal health problems. I'm sure I am a part of our problems. However, I seem to be the one who is blamed for all of it, literally all. Looking like the proverbial "common denominator". I have been willing to look at my roll, take responsibility for my part, but, I am the only one willing to do that. Life for me has to change. I started with listening to the communication compilation Coach put together, it's very good. My communication skills are weak. It's strange, I think I am the leader here, not by choice. I do not think a couple of TH-cam vids are going to fix anything, but, I hope I can pick up quickly some bits and pieces to aid conflict resolution, and maybe a coming together differently, better than before. I have to be willing to accept that, my goal/hopes may not become reality. To fail, for all of us to fail, is a devastating possibility to contemplate.
Democratic Leader is positive reinforcement to the followers. Leaders always set an examples and create leaders too. Even they leave the other person will take over
¡Gracias!
Thank you so much! I appreciate that.
good explanation
Great presentation sir
Thank you!
Hi Alex, I've been following your channel for a few months and have found it very helpful with public speaking, as well as direct communication, both formal and informal. I was wondering if you would please help me gather information about how to change my approach from less direct and blunt. There's nuances that I'm still not getting, even though I'm engaging people, rallying support and collaborating really well. These qualities are developing into leadership traits, but I'm still not satisfied.
Thanks in advance
Hi, Elaina. I think the theories I'd point out in this long video that might help are as follows: The section on "Leadership Skills" and both Vertical Dyad Linkage Model and the Leader-Member Exchange area of research. Those all talk about how to develop better interpersonal relationships and related dynamics with followers.
So glad to hear this Elaina, Alex rocks!!!!!
From 38:00 i believe using word 'Production' doesnt give enough clarity...I would have prefered using 'result'....but this video was highly helpful and really opened my eyes to different leadership models
I hear you. The term production is the one various researcher teams used at the time. But results is a fitting synonym.
Good topic I like it.
this is soooo goood.
Thanks!
Wow! Thank you, Katharine. That is very kind and generous. I appreciate it.
The best 👌 💓
Thank you, Faisa.
Prof this is a very good video
Thank you!
awesome
good work budy x
Very helpful
Glad you think so!
i feel down when everytime I'm searching about leadership theories, because I don't understand any.
I’m an innate servant leader, how should I prepare myself to be the best leader for my employees?
Higgens on Magnum PI seems a lassaiz-faire leadership style person, with sometimes expensive results.
That'a a great example. I'm only familiar with the original show but Higgins does fit that profile.
How telling that the 'trait' of Integrity listed examples from the past rather than any current or living leaders.
Would you consider transcendental leadership as a theory? If yes, do you know who started it? I have been reading about it and I cannot point out the main proponent of it.
Don't know much about it. But, from what I can tell, it's a leadership philosophy more than a theory. I don't know how many data-drive studies test its effectiveness. I could be wrong about that but I do know that it's not included in most of the credible leadership books out there. It seems like it mainly takes aspects of already-existing theory and research and combines them.
@@alexanderlyon Thank you so much for the reply.
man how can I find the script for the video?!
Where does collaborative leadership theory fall under?
❤❤❤
"Laisser faire": tip to anglophones: think of reading laisssssser fair".
(No francophone will agree that these words spelled out correctly resemble hearing "laisy". Forget the "i" you spell in laysi, but that might be too difficult, but thinking ssssss will do the trick. It took me a wile to recognyse my mother tongue expression of "let them do".)
(BTW, I think that way of governing(!, nevertheless), relies on accomplished specialists ". Democracy implies perhaps "let's BECOME scientific together. ? )
