The 10 capabilities of great leaders

In our experience, leadership and management is about what we do and how we do it, not just what we know theoretically. Leadership and management are a practice – that takes practice.  

Whilst structures vary across organisations, we have found the most important leadership and management capabilities are highly consistent. Managers of people, managers of managers, senior leaders and executives all need these same key capabilities. Naturally, how they practice and demonstrate them will vary, reflecting the scope and nature of the role.

1. Leading inclusively

Evidence shows inclusive teams perform better, are more creative and have superior wellbeing. Being inclusive is more than words, and even actions, it begins with mindset. 

2. Being authentic

Research shows authenticity is associated with greater wellbeing, happiness, engagement, innovation, and retention. 

3. Growing talent

The best managers/leaders have a growth mindset for themselves and their teams. They identify and use the unique strengths of their team to deliver performance. 

4. Nurturing change readiness

Agile managers/leaders proactively read and act on signals of change. They are open to better ways of working and champion innovation.
