Activity 2.2 | Relational Leadership Models for Early years Contexts

John Nicholls (1993) proposed that leadership needed to integrate different aspects of the human experience better. For him, this included inspirational, strategic and supervisory leadership. This translated into the Head, Heart and Hands model of leadership. He proposed that leadership skills be viewed through three dimensions: inspirational leadership (the heart), strategic leadership (the head), and supervisory leadership (the hands). This framework aims to help leaders adopt a more holistic approach to leading people.
