Leadership Effectiveness
This chapter discusses the functional, or career development, stages of design professionals and the associated interpersonal and leadership skills they should have in each stage, as well as strategies for leaders to provide appropriate direction and feedback to them at each state of their development. Leadership is a mindset, skill set, and set of behaviors that can be exercised by individuals in teams regardless of their position or authority. Leadership theory has evolved in the twenty first century to suggest that effective leaders exhibit specific behaviors or styles of leadership that may or may not be tied to personality traits. Researchers study ways in which process is linked to product in terms of leadership effectiveness, as assessed through the perceptions of others rather than through self‐identified personality‐based metrics alone. Leaders in project delivery teams influence complex and uncertain situations with an expectation for a positive outcome. Recognizing and embracing complexity is a necessary attribute for leaders in and related to the design and construction profession. The chapter also presents an interview with Patricia (Patti) Rhee, AIA DBIA, is a partner at Ehrlich Yanai Rhee Chaney Architects (EYRC), the 2015 AIA Architecture Firm Award recipient.
