This model of leadership is based on an understanding of what transformational leadership looks like in practice.
Avidus appreciates the distinctions between management and leadership [pdf], however, we believe that organisations today require excellent leadership. Management is associated more with the maintenance of the status quo, whereas leadership is aligned to driving change and innovation. Avidus supports managers in demonstrating leadership in action and through the application of our model managers are transformed into leaders.
