Adaptive leadership

Adaptive leadership, introduced by Marty Linsky, is a model that helps individuals and organizations effectively respond to change. It emphasizes the need for flexibility, experimentation, and smart risk-taking. Adaptive leaders embrace uncertainty, lead with empathy, and focus on building effective relationships. They are open to new ideas and prioritize organizational growth over personal gains. Real-world examples like Kodak and Barnes and Noble illustrate the consequences of failing to adapt. Key principles include emotional intelligence, organizational justice, and character. Self-assessment questions help identify adaptive leadership qualities.
