Situational Leadership (Part 2): Moving from Theory to Practice

In this episode of Stepping Into Your Leadership, host Christine Courtney and producer Tatiana Dominguez take a deep dive into Situational Leadership—one of the most powerful leadership models for managers and rising leaders.

Leadership isn’t one-size-fits-all. The Situational Leadership Model helps leaders adapt their style based on their team's competence and commitment levels. But how do you actually put it into practice?

💡 In this episode, we discuss:

✅ How to assess where your employees are in the leadership model

✅ Why coaching (not just directing) is essential for success

✅ The biggest mistakes leaders make—like delegating too soon or micromanaging

✅ How check-ins & trust-building prevent leadership breakdowns

✅ A real-world framework for applying adaptive leadership styles

This episode is packed with practical techniques that will help you build stronger, more effective teams—whether you're leading one person or an entire organization.
