Description:
Developed by Petra Kuenkel, Executive Director of the Collective Leadership Institute, this model is a “guiding structure that helps navigate complex settings collaboratively and implement more outcome-oriented and constructive co-creation on a day-to-day basis – for individuals, teams, an entire organisation, and cross-sector co-operation initiatives” (Kuenkel, 2013).
The compass suggests six competency areas (or rather impact areas) that as leaders we need to attend to and develop further in the way we lead collaboration and the way we contribute to collective action. For each of the six competencies to come to life there are three elements requiring attention. They all contribute to strengthening the individual capacity for navigating the challenges and help a group of leaders stay on track in complex multi-actor settings.
I’ve listed this model here rather than in the category of competency-based models, because the way this model is defined is directional in the way it aims at developing sustainability through collaboration. However, as with many models here, its classification can be overlapping more than one category.
