Robert W. Terry affirms that leadership is a subset of action. In Authentic Leadership: Courage In Action, he shows how this shift in perspective carries enormous consequences for consideration of courage, vision, ethics, and spirituality as they relate to leadership.
Terry shows that the central organizing principle of leadership is authenticity. And he shows how authenticity and action together form a sure foundation for effective leadership.
The Action Wheel Leadership Model was developed by Dr. Robert Terry and has been used for more than 30 years in organizations worldwide. The Action Wheel is an issue and action-framing tool that was created to provide the answers to two core leadership questions:
What is really, really going on?
What are we going to do about it?
The ability to frame an issue correctly is essential to leadership. As we correctly frame issues, so too will we solve them. Without a reflective answer, action is misdirected, misunderstood and mismanaged. Unless we know what is really going on, we misconstrue the issues and act with unanticipated, even dire, consequences.
