Is leadership an art or a science? This is a debate that’s raged across the centuries. Turns out it’s neither. Leadership is a process that occurs when shared values foster collaborative relationships that lead to collective action intended to elevate (or, create positive change) in an organization, cause, or community. How, then, do you do leadership? It is a collection of behaviors, not innate abilities. It is what you do, not who you are, and can be learned and practiced. APWA’s leadership framework defines those behaviors into five practices and this session will dive into what those are and how to implement them into your own experience. The five practices are: Model the way, Inspire a Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, and Encourage the Heart.
