In this video Dr. Torben Noerby introduces insights from his research into Contextual Leadership. The video introduces the five layers of leadership context and relates it to contextual leadership. Leadership context is the sum of factors holding the potential to influence leadership or its outcomes. Leadership outcomes are defined as the work performance behaviour and the engagement drivers behind the behaviour, which are most suited to promote the organisational culture, intentions and ambitions. The global leadership context study involving more than 125 leadership experts confirmed a range of factors with guiding, helping and hindering effects. The factors organise themselves into five layers of leadership context, which interact in a force field.
This series is based on my doctoral research studies into the leadership context, involving more than 125 leadership experts. My research identified contextual factors that can significantly help or hinder leadership or organisational performance. It also gave me insight into the contextual dynamics and how to handle these challenges.
My blogs and media aim to inspire leaders to exercise more effective contextual leadership, and assist companies and consultants in developing better recruitment, leadership and talent programmes. Please get in touch if you have ideas, queries or wish to contribute to promoting insights about context and leadership.
