Executive leaders often help create the consequences they try to avoid. Facilitative leader approach helps leaders create the consequences they say they want and reduces unintended and unwanted consequences. The Facilitative Leader approach is a practical, values-based, systemic approach to leadership. It lets leaders use a clearly defined set of values and assumptions and create strategies that improve the quality of decisions, increase commitment, reduce implementation time, and improve working relationships and personal satisfaction. To minimize the chance that people will express negative emotions, these leaders ease in by asking questions or making comments designed to get others to understand what they're thinking without them having to say.it.
