Do You Have The Qualities of an Innovative Leader?

We're back for part two of three in our Leadership Qualities Needed In Today's Work Environment series. Last week the conversation focused on being a humble leader, review part one here.  

My question for you this week... Do you have the qualities of an innovative leader?

According to recent quantitative research reported by McKinsey, there are roughly 20 fundamental components of leadership that correlate closely to organization performance.

Progressive leaders who demonstrate these components are better able to support change and innovation in their organizations.

McKinsey discovered in their research that four key leadership attributes help organizations stand out and move forward at a distinctive pace.

The four attributes are Insight, Integrity, Courage, and Agility.
  1. Insight helps leaders calibrate and see what matters in operations and with people.
  2. Integrity helps leaders build conviction and deep trust within the organization.
  3. Courage supports leaders in taking on important and challenging opportunities quickly.
  4. Agility helps leaders know when they need to change course and keep going.
Here are how the 20 research-supported traits integrate with the four leadership characteristics that are seen as essential for the future by the interviewees who participated in the research.

As you read through the list below, do a mental assessment as to how well you demonstrate each of these traits. Then pick one or two that you’d like to strengthen.
