Systemic Leadership Organisation Studies
-
Systemic leadership takes a postmodern / systems-based view of organisational life and the dynamic range of internal and environmental forces that determine the outcomes of projects. The systemic approach is multidisciplinary and dialogic in practice. It utilises a variety of creative, participatory dialogue-based and affirmative techniques for working with individuals, groups and teams to identify opportunities, snags and emergent patterns of behaviour. It is an incisive, effective and generative approach to creating / managing change and addressing 'stuckness' in organisational / service settings.
