Action-Centred Leadership

An approach to leadership in which three interconnected actions, for which a leader is responsible for, must be applied and met for success to be achieved. John Adair developed this model (called the three-circle model) which consists of three partially overlapping circles (Task, Team, Individual) in which each of the requirements must be balanced for a successful or optimum outcome.
• To Achieve the task this needs to be well defined, planned and executed.
• The Team needs to be built and maintained, being motivated throughout.
• Each Individual needs to be developed and encouraged to improve and progress.
