The nature of leadership is changing

Leadership has changed during the last decade. In Ontario when we worked on literacy, numeracy and high school graduation in 2003–2013, we learned a great deal about capacity building for individuals and groups. Such capacity focused on pedagogy, collaboration, spreading what works, and assessing impact. We learned about transparency in the context of relative non-judgmentalism. There was a lot to learn but the agenda was somewhat straightforward—capacity-building linked to results.
