  • Behavioral Leadership Theory
  • BELBIN® Team Roles Model
  • Blake and Mouton’s Managerial Grid
  • CEDAR model (for feedback conversations)

According to this theory, someone can be an effective leader in one circumstance and an ineffective leader in another
  • Daniel Goleman’s 6 Leadership Styles
  • DISC D3
  • Extended DISC

  • Kurt Lewin’s Leadership Styles Framework – three distinct leadership styles: autocratic (authoritarian), democratic (participative), and laissez-faire

  • Satir Change Model – The Satir model is a 5-stage change model that describes each stage’s effects on feelings, thinking, performance, and physiology when an individual goes through change.

  • Strength Deployment Inventory® (SDI)
  • Structogram® – a tool to visualize the result of bi-structural analysis, it shows the genetically determined basic personality structure.
  • Situation-Behavior-Impact (SBI)™
  • Situational Leadership® – builds on group maturity, four situation types, and two leadership behaviours, resulting in a very concrete leadership model with telling, selling, participating, and delegating leadership styles
  • Thomas Kilmann Conflict Model
  • Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI®) assessment – provides insight into an individual’s typical response to conflict situations using one or more of five conflict-handling modes, or styles: competing, accommodating, avoiding, collaborating, and compromising. These modes reflect varying levels of assertiveness and cooperation.
  • Transactional analysis – a psychoanalytic theory and method of therapy wherein social interactions (or “transactions”) are analyzed to determine the ego state of the communicator (whether parent-like, childlike, or adult-like) as a basis for understanding behaviour.
