Leader humility: modelling how to learn
Where expertise is capital, how can an expert leader keep learning in front of the team?
The research
Bradley Owens and David Hekman (2012, Academy of Management Journal) identify three humble leader behaviours: admitting mistakes and limits, spotlighting followers' strengths, modelling teachability.
The limit
Inductive qualitative study: a model, not a causal estimate. (our executive and employee training programmes)
