Relational Leadership RELATIONAL LEADERSHIP Non-positional leadership comes from the theory of relational leadership, as described by Komives et al. (1998). • - Relational leadership is defined as a relational process of people attempting to accomplish change to benefit the common good, and is deeply focused on the building and cultivating of relationships. It is comprised of two models: 1. positional 2. non-positional. •
Positional Leadership Positional leadership: when one strives to take on a traditional leadership role, assuming the duties associated with what they believe to be “leadership at the top” to obtain such a role. • This approach centers around the title and perception of leadership.
Non Positional Non-positional leadership: occurs when individuals seek to deepen their involvement in an organization as a member, with no particular interest in establishing a “leadership at the top” role. • -This approach centers around the qualities that relate to leadership, such as supporting the forward momentum of the group and providing vision for the future, without necessarily the interest in the title and perception of leadership.
