abstract = {Although excellent tools and methodologies for developing leadership skills/ competencies exist, there is an absence of a practical and easily teachable model for the development of leadership that is research-based, yet practical, and can be easily understood and applied by leaders, managers, and administrators. Starting with a definition of leadership that focuses on getting results rather than on idealized and abstract processes, this article presents an approach that provides a framework for developing a strategy for applying leadership skills/competencies to achieve organizational objectives in a wide variety of situations and contexts. Furthermore, the development of leadership skills is best achieved when this teachable model of leadership is introduced using pedagogical principles that (a) employ inductive, inquiry-based/ discovery learning that emphasizes “homegrown” theories; (b) provide opportunities for realistic and real-world practice; (c) provide opportunities for real-time feedback and process debriefing; and (d) ensure participant accountability. The success of this approach is illustrated by describing a leadership-development program where it was used.},
