A project that suits my inclinations. "Distributive leadership" can be defined as "the distribution of power through a collegial sharing of knowledge, of practice, and reflection." In that context, this report finds "Distributive leadership is most successful if the leadership roles and responsibilities are negotiated rather than delegated; distributive leadership harnesses individual strengths and abilities appropriate for the required leadership, irrespective of formal position; and a distributive approach provides [individuals] an opportunity to take a leadership role, ascertain capability, and further develop these aptitudes before acquiring a formal position."
