- “Analyzing–Figuring out what outcomes are desired and how to achieve them.
- Allocating–Establishing a plan to concentrate scarce resources, like money, time, and people, toward their highest and best uses, and away from areas of waste.
- Aligning–Influencing people to behave in a coordinated way, accordingly to the plan, to achieve the desired outcome.” (Smart, 2012, p. 38)
I’ve been ruminating over this framework for a few days now and I really like it. We have a variety of models, frameworks and acronyms for leadership. However, most tend to over-emphasize the role of influence and underemphasize the importance of analysis and resource allocation. Many downgrade such activities as “management” but they do so at their peril. Smart’s three “As” balance out the vital functions of leadership in a clear, but concise manner.
What do you think? Does this framework leave anything out?
