How do I lead correctly? Many people ask themselves this question. But it is much more important to ask: Is my leadership style authentic? Because authenticity is the key to a competent appearance and the successful leadership of employees.
In the context of the further training to the care service line (PDL) the author Nadine long argued intensively with this topic. In her book, she shows which leadership styles exist and how they should be applied. In addition, she explains which resources and instruments are available to achieve set goals. The focus is on one's own personality, because it must fit the chosen leadership style. Frustration on both sides is thus a thing of the past.
