What are some models for effective leadership?

Some models for effective leadership that can be adapted to multiple situations include the situational and servant leadership model. Other models that have been used successfully over the years are the Blake and Mouton’s Leadership Grid and the Emotional Intelligence model.

Some common traits of leadership models involve caring for people under leadership and remaining adaptable to new situations.
