Introduction[edit | edit source]

“We do not learn from experience…we learn from reflecting on experience” -- John Dewey[1]

Effective leadership requires formal and informal leaders to assess the situation, select a leadership approach, implement this approach, and reflect and learn on this process. The first three steps are discussed in the linked articles. The fourth step of reflection is discussed below.

What is Reflection (Reflective Leadership)?[edit | edit source]

Vilkinas et al.[2] proposed that effective leaders need two attributes:

  1. They must be able to "read the context or environment accurately to exercise the most appropriate behaviour"[2]
  2. Then, they must be "both willing and able to learn from their experiences, to consider the implications of their behaviours and make appropriate adjustments in future interactions"[2]

Reflection is a structured and deliberate process that helps individuals consider, examine or evaluate a situation, decision, event etc in a constructive way.[3] It enables individuals to “learn from mistakes; to identify skills and strengths; and to develop options and actions for change and future success, promoting a lifelong process of learning and development."[4]
