High Quality Leadership Theory© emerged from debates regarding leaders who achieved incredible feats, that potentially were detrimental to others or sacrificed key values. Scholarly peer reviewed, High Quality Leadership Theory© provides a more holistic and inclusive definition of leadership and the impact it has on the quality of an organization. High Quality Leadership Theory© combines technical and moral attributes in a new way and provides a more comprehensive framework to develop multi-faceted solutions for companies.
Acceptance of High Quality Leadership Theory© focuses on enhancing an organization’s culture. Through combining leadership capacity with a moral compass, High Quality Leadership Theory© powers a culture rich in empathy, high in superior results, and brimming with fully utilized people.
Built on two foundational constructs, each supported by four core domains, High Quality Leadership Theory© was developed to be more exhaustive than other current leadership paradigms.
Constructs
Capacity is Technical / Effective Leadership. It is defined as one’s skill to lead and relates to one’s leadership capabilities. Capacity includes four domains, Cognitive Ability, Getting Results, Span of Control and Compensation Attainment.
Compass is Morally based Leadership. It is defined as one’s moral directive to lead and relates to one’s ethical character. Compass is comprised of the four domains of Selflessness, Accountability, Integrity and Spiritual Behavior.
Domains
Cognitive Ability. The degree to which a person is perceived to be a deep thinker, smart, and academically gifted.
Getting Results. The degree to which a person is perceived to have a propensity toward action, risk, curiosity, and courage.
Span of Control. The degree to which a person is perceived as being skilled, well-organized, and can effectively coordinate and control the activities of those they lead.
Compensation Attainment. The degree to which a person perceives that they themselves have achieved successful salary attainment.
Selflessness. The degree to which one foregoes their own self-interest in the interest of others’ wishes, goals, and successes.
Accountability. The degree to which one takes a personal ownership of choices and outcomes.
Integrity. The degree to which one is truthful and trustworthy.
Spiritual Behavior. The degree to which a person is perceived as having a value system and conscience that it derives from a spiritual sense of connection to a higher power.
This new model of leadership bridges the gaps that have existed in other models and presents an assessment tool that is more comprehensive than the dominant leadership instruments.
