Leadership skills are essential for all project team members, regardless of whether the project operates in a centralized authority structure or a shared leadership environment
Factors Influencing Leadership Style:
- Experience with the Project Type: Leaders may need to adapt their style based on the complexity and nature of the project.
- Maturity of the Team: A more experienced team may require a delegative approach, while a less experienced team may need more directive leadership.
- Organizational Governance Structures: The structure of the organization, whether hierarchical or flat, can impact the degree of control and autonomy a leader can exercise.
- Distributed Project Teams: Remote or geographically dispersed teams may require strong communication and coordination skills to maintain alignment
