What Does Managerial Leadership Look Like? A Requisite Approach

By Michelle Malay Carter on July 2, 2008 

Requisite Organization Leadership PracticesElliott Jaques’ Requisite Organization model does a great job of defining a set managerial leadership behaviors which, within a Requisite Organization leadership framework,?would become explicit accountabilities of all managers.?

Simple?? Yes.? Practiced?? Maybe
These practices are simple on their face, but remember, systems drive behavior.? Therefore, an organization’s leadership system (or lack thereof) has a huge influence upon whether these behaviors can occur and do occur.

I’m OK.? You’re OK.? Let’s fix the system.

Does your manager carry out these practices?? Do you?? Does your leadership system specify and reinforce these behaviors?
