Spanning structural boundaries, establish broad networks across existing hierarchy and work them directly, making opportunistic use of meetings. Making transitions , use transitions as opportunities to learn new skills, look for alternatives/ role models, tend to dive in and enter quickly, stay focussed on needs being served, facilitate major change through lots of communication, set new expectations, and build trust. Communication skills , engage in building shared meaning, focus on the need of others and anticipate questions, the real communication tends to go on outside meetings, Problem solving, look at the whole situation (out of boundary or lateral thinking) or the big picture, and coaching others. Power relationships, treat bosses as coaches or mentors, as supporters or as people who could add value to an idea. Play leaderships roles without authority
