Leader is concerned with the interaction of 3 areas:
• Task – goal setting, methods and process

Transformational Theory (Bass and Avolio, 1994)
• Leaders inspire individuals, develop trust, and
encourage creativity and personal growth
• Individuals develop a sense of purpose to benefit
the group, organisation or society. This goes
beyond their own self-interests and an exchange of
rewards or recognition for effort or loyalty.
Leadership Skills

Job descriptions
• What are the key responsibilities of the team
leader role?

teamwork and motivate individuals
2. Provide structure for team – set mission and purpose,
clarify roles and responsibilities, allocate tasks and set
objectives
3. Clarify working methods, practises and protocol
4. Focus on performance – anticipate challenges, monitor

Leadership Skills
Key Team Leader Responsibilities
Responsibility Vs Accountability?
What does having authority mean?
Leadership Skills
• Accountability the state of being accountable, liable, or answerable
• Responsibility (for objects, tasks or people) can be delegated but
accountability can not – buck stops with you!
• A good leader accepts ultimate responsibility:
– will give credit to others when delegated responsibilities succeed
– will accept blame when delegated responsibilities fail
• Accountability can not operate fairly without the leader being given
full authority for the responsibilities concerned
• Authority is the power to influence or command thought, opinion or
behaviour
• Cross-functional team – less authority - more difficult to manage
Accountability, Responsibility, and Authority
Leadership Skills
Group Exercise
When have you experienced an issue as a leader
that you did not have the authority to resolve?
How did you know you did not have the authority?
Who did you refer to for help?
Use examples from your own current experience –
work, volunteer, club /society
Leadership Skills
Team Leader authority will vary from role to role dependent
on the scope of duties and organisational structure
A Team Leader may refer to line management or other
authorities for the following:
• HR (staff recruitment and training, performance and
discipline, racism or bullying)

working practises)
• Budget & resources (allocation and management)
• Organisational objectives (strategy, targets)
• Managing change (department restructure, office move)
• Line management (support and advice, own CPD)
Leadership Skills
