LEVELS OF
LEADERSHIP
The Big Idea
To be aware if the different levels of Leadership, where you, as a leader, are now, and how to develop your skills in order to move to the next levels
Learning Goal
We will learn the levels of leadership & recognize where we fall as a leader
Success Criteria
What are the “look fors”?
How will I (as the teacher) know that you have met this goal?
LEADERSHIP QUIZ
What is leadership? How do we define it?
Dictionary: “The position or function of a leader”
• Too vague
So, then ask: What does a leader do that others do not?
Criteria for effective leaders?
DECISIONS!
Leaders make decisions.
Followers follow those decisions that are made.
The kind of leader one is, depends on the kind of decisions that are made and the actions that flow from these decisions.
Think about the quiz you just took!
FOUR LEVELS OF

Four Levels of Leadership
Level 1: The Doer

The Doer
Decision: Responsibility
