Leadership comes in many forms and is often defined in just as many ways. These teaching resources define leadership as the ability for individuals or groups to guide others ethically and effectively in order to bring about positive change. These resources offer insight into the particular biases that leaders face as well as the biases and pressures that affect group dynamics. It also includes best practices for leaders. Everyone should develop the tools and skills necessary to become effective, ethical leaders regardless of their role within their organization.
