Strong and capable leadership is what inspires others to action. Effective leaders appreciate the distinction between assertive and aggressive leadership- and use the difference between the two in their advantage. Let’s explore the distinction …
Assertive Leadership - is bold and confident (not pushy). People are inspired by follow the assertive leader because she has a confident “presence” that makes you feel that she know what she’s doing, where she’s going - and can lead you there. Being assertive is often the most productive way to inspire others to action.
Aggressive Leadership - is forceful and can be perceived as combative. Aggressive leaders often exhibit a disregard for others in a “determined” pursuit of their goal. While aggressiveness certainly has its place in the toolbox of an effective leader, this style must be used in a conscious and purposeful manner to accomplish the intended effect of getting a job done - while inspiring your team and colleagues by your action.
Discriminating use of assertiveness and aggressiveness in your personal leadership style will go a long way in (i) validating your credibility as an effective leader and (ii) increasing your ability to motivate and inspire others by your action.
Until next time … Take Great Care!
