• Dealing with Instructions, Invitations, Cancellations, Correction
  
• Direct and Indirect communication styles - what's not being said?
• Explore the different tree types' Forest Fires

Leaders know where to stand

• There is an idiom about the highest trees catching the most wind. That is true! Leadership always entails challenges and resistance. When the tree is, however, planted in exactly the right spot, the wind makes it a strong, supple tree that offers other trees shelter and spreads its lifegiving seed on the wind. A tree that is placed in the wrong spot will be damaged, will cause damage and will have to be supported with great trouble.

The task determines the leader

• In any company, the nurturing and development of a person who has been planted wrongly will demand long programmes at very high cost. The employee is developed and driven in a direction that goes against his grain. In schools, this causes frustration and damage to the (children’s) self-image. In a family, this means role conflict and the loss of mutual respect. All of these are the result of a leader appointed in the wrong position.
• At Tall Trees we do not, therefore, develop a set of “preferred leadership qualities” because each task and context demand unique leadership traits. Tall Trees place the same emphasis on leadership with a task focus and leadership with a human focus. Our task is the discovery of every person’s unique, inborn leadership style. This highlights specific tasks and situations that suit the leader to a T.
