Understanding The 360-Degree Leader
A Comprehensive Approach to Ensuring Support from Others in Your Management Hierarchy and Beyond
Overview
The most effective leaders know how to influence everyone they come in contact with--not just the people who report to them. Traditional managers' power is based on "being in charge" and "being the boss," and can't be used to manage up or manage across. In contrast, 360-degree leaders can use their influence in all directions, and anyone in any position can gain and apply this influence. This Federal Executive Institute (FEI) program focuses on helping you work with those around you, enabling you to:
• Lead Up—Influence the boss and others above you in the agency hierarchy
• Lead Across—Influence co-workers in your organization and associates in others
• Lead Down—Influence subordinates and those below you in the agency hierarchy
• Lead Out—Influence those who do not work for your agency
