Shared Leadership – leaders, leaders everywhere?
summary
Argues that leadership is an emergent team property supported by studies (75 teams, ~308 people) and by practical experiments, not just top-down authority, and shows concrete actions leaders use to enable it: empowerment, humility and active coaching plus network tactics like boundary spanners, work-out-loud and a simple 4C framework (Connect / Consult / Catalyze / Collective). Reports benefits—higher performance, creativity, engagement and accountability—while warning of lower short-term performance if teams lack competence and of possible power plays.
