Traditional Leadership vs Collaborative Leadership

This is a comparative look at eight major differences between the traditional leadership approach and collaborative leadership. Collaborative leadership has a lot in common with transformational leadership  and  servant leadership.  

One of the ways in which I used collaborative leadership was decision-making through the leadership team.  Advantages of this approach include more involvement and responsibility in implementation.  The open-process of collaborative  leadership helped build trust among my leadership team and entire staff.

Collaborative leadership also encourages ownership and builds commitment to the mission and vision.  As a collaborative leader, you must lead the process, not the people. You become a master facilitator.
