Types of Informal Leaders and Their Impact PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 30-slide 10 Principles of Culture PowerPoint presentation, outlines the concept of informal leaders within an organization, emphasizing their significant influence despite lacking formal titles. It categorizes these leaders into 4 distinct types: Pride Builders, Networkers, Exemplars, and Adopters.

Pride Builders are described as master motivators who act as catalysts for improvement. They take on responsibilities akin to line managers and possess a deep understanding of their colleagues' motivations. Their ability to inspire a sense of excellence is noted, along with their presence at all organizational levels. They also offer valuable insights into the culture and behaviors that can drive enhancements.

Networkers serve as communication hubs, connecting various individuals within the organization. They are characterized by their extensive networks and open communication style, which allows them to bridge gaps between people who may not typically share information. Their role in facilitating the viral spread of ideas is highlighted, showcasing their importance in fostering collaboration.

Exemplars are recognized as role models who embody vital skills and behaviors. They command attention from others and are respected figures, particularly among middle and senior management. Their influence is essential for shaping organizational norms and practices.

Adopters are the innovators who eagerly embrace new technologies and processes. They participate in performance pilots that showcase quick impacts, demonstrating their proactive approach to change.

The overarching message is that informal leaders, regardless of their type, play a crucial role in driving transformation within a company. Their ability to influence and energize others is vital for fostering a dynamic and responsive organizational culture.
