The complex, dynamic, competing, and convoluted demands on leaders call for them to possess an awareness of the use of multiple approaches to guide institutions of higher education. The manner in which leaders navigate these demands determines whether or not leadership is effective or ineffective. When leaders understand the usage of multiple leadership theories and styles, it allows them to be grounded and responsive in order to identify the best course of action to advance effective leadership. A heightened awareness of the four leadership approaches can help leaders pull together a clear depiction of their leadership strengths and weaknesses and allow leaders the ability to more accurately predict trends, actions, and behaviors of people. It can also inform leaders on what is the most appropriate course of action in aligning resources, people, policies, and structures to facilitate positive institutional outcomes. This consciousness can lead to purposeful planning on the part of the leader to minimize their weaknesses and capitalize on their strengths.
