- Emergent leadership describes the way some professionals get noticed and rise up. Research on groups and teams shows specific make-or-break behaviors position some individuals and eliminate others. This research is originally from the "Minnesota Studies" led by Ernest Bormann that asked the question, how do leaders emerge? And, even the seating arrangement can make a difference as the video shows in the bonus tip.

I'm glad it was helpful, Tee D.
What tips could you use to position yourself as an emerging leader?
Thanks for the information coach ... it's very useful especially for me
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent tips!!
Thanks Alex, Very useful information especially in this digital age 😀
Glad it was useful, John.
The seating tip is one that I will definitely keep in mind and try out! 😁
Great! It's such a simple change that makes a big impact over the long-run.
I love that content 😇💝
I like how we need to sit where everyone can see us if we want to take a leadership role
Ha. Yes. I've chosen seats very carefully after reading this research.
Oh that was interesting - Minnesota studies
What about a circular table?
This can be my problem just because I'm new at meeting with professional people.
As an introvert, I know when you wait too long to speak, people tend to see it as random or an outburst. Also if you wait way too long it's just hindsight, even if you knew it way before.
I found the video very informative. I am watching and listening about these techniques however "Times are a changing!" How about techniques of where and how to act on a ZOOM call. Table meetings are going to become something of the past. Even job interviews start with a video call. Standing by for expertise!
Hi Paul. It'll be some time before there's any quality published research on that. I typically base what I say on research and go from there. So, it's not likely I'll have much to say about Zoom anytime soon. I personally use it almost every day, though, and some version of it will surely be with us for years to come. At the same time, I believe that once the virus is under control and the vaccine roles out, many people will be eager to meet face to face again. So, I'm guessing we'll see a mixture of video and face to face meetings where some people are calling in and some people are there in person.
Thank you for your reply!
Table seating is quite interesting. I found I always sit in the corner. Ha XD
I’m in the process of getting promoted at my job but sometimes we have huddles and I feel this nervousness about speaking when they ask if anyone has anything to add! It’s horrible for me at times
I worked with a client who struggled with that. His strategy became to have one question or point of view to contribute before he ever arrived at the meeting. While he was preparing, he would jot down some notes so when there was an opening, he already had something helpful to contribute "in his back pocket," as they say. More preparation ahead of time will give you more helpful contributions in the moment. And, as the meeting is rolling along, you can take additional notes about what you might say or ask when your boss or co-workers ask that question.
Thank you so much I will apply That for sure!
Is there a private method to contact you and ask a question?
Hi, Michael. You can post any questions in the comments section and I'll do my best to answer them. I don't do any 1-2-1 coaching, tutoring, or email Q&A or anything like that anymore. Sorry about that. I just don't have the time anymore.
Can you help me more about commucation
Yes, that's a main focus for the whole channel. Take a look under "videos" and scroll through to see what we've already posted.
But come to think of it, who needs leaders? We should learn how to be autonomous. This want for a leader may sound like part of that Old American Dream which has been over for quite some time now.
Interesting point of view. You've got me thinking. First, America is only a couple of hundred years old. We've had leaders since the beginning of history and philosophers and ancient historians even have put forward various theories of leadership for thousands of years. Leadership and leadership studies as an academic area have no unique connection to the USA. Second, in terms of not needing leaders, if you can show me any company, culture, or society that doesn't have leaders, then it would be a first. Even when societies or sub-cultures devolve into a leaderless situation or disorganization for a relatively brief time period with no official leaders, we almost instantly see warlords emerge as leaders who rule by force through a _might-is-right_ approach or we see external leaders conquer those cultures. A company without a leader wouldn't last very long either. They'd go out of business or be taken over. So, yes, leaders will always play a pivotal role--for better or worse--whether we want them or like them or not. Let's just hope and pray that we can each be the types of leaders ourselves of our families, communities, and workplaces need, *_good_* leaders. Third, it doesn't have to be just one individual who functions as THE leader. It could be a leadership team. And, it doesn't have to be a centralized approach to leadership. There are lots of approaches to leadership, which is one of the reasons I have this channel, to help people develop good leadership skills so they can lead their teams effectively. Finally, the only way to be genuinely autonomous is to be almost totally isolated and that's not realistic for most of us since most of us live in a society. I would say that autonomy, independence, and individualism are all more closely aligned with the old American Dream than anything to do with wanting or needing leaders. Anyway, interesting point. Thanks for sharing your view on this.
@@alexanderlyon My example is, precisely,The USA.
I hear that that is your point and your example. I don't think we agree but I certainly respect your position on it.
@@alexanderlyon However, your explanation was really sensible and to the point. I will have to reconsider my position, I may have an extreme perspective that I will need to adjust to reality.
1st point. Not talk too much. Nelson Mendela in his village 1 take away gave as a leadership was to speak last.
Great example! Mandela was amazing.
Interesting topic, bad analysis by those guys "leader is the last one to be rejected" lol
Oh that was interesting - Minnesota studies
The seating is now more interesting on Zoom mmmm
The seating is now more interesting on Zoom mmmm
Yes, that's true. I don't know how that would translate (if at all) to Zoom I'm sure somebody will do some cool Zoom research soon.
