Excerpted from the Guardian, written by Dr Jem Bendell, professor of Sustainability Leadership at the University of Cumbria:
"Instead of a focus on heroes with great traits, to develop

develop leaderful groups, where senior role holders act as hosts not
heroes, and enable leadership to emerge from within the group. It means
insights on group facilitation, group dynamics, system change and
personal mindfulness...."
