Leaders, in the form of authorities, have been assigned to that role. Their title may give them power over others but rank does not automatically transform someone into a person who leads. That requires the respect and support of other people.

Thanks for sharing Dr. Pope! Learning about these different styles of leadership and when they are most and least effective was really interesting.
This was very informative! My best work environment was when the doctors and management thought as “we” and asked how they can help the technicians learn and improve. Being a leader helps foster a positive experience for staff, which in my experience, has helped them want to learn and improve – allowing for improved patient care and less staff turnover.
Learning about different leadership styles was very insightful! I was unaware of how many different ways there were to effectively lead. I have worked in a practice where the leadership was control freak/high-paced and it hurt my self-confidence and the office morale. I agree that the best leaders encourage their staff and coach them to do improve, which in my opinion made people want to work harder and learn more.
This was a great explanation of various leadership styles and the pros and cons that accompany them!
