Leadership Metaphor Explorer

The Leadership Metaphor Explorer is an interactive tool that sparks meaningful conversations about leadership culture and style. Using vivid metaphorical images and thought-provoking captions, it helps teams and leaders explore the differences between dependent, independent, and interdependent leadership, revealing how authority, autonomy, and collaboration show up in your organization.

Overview

Created by the Center for Creative Leadership, this hands-on game uses metaphorical images and captions to open a dialogue about dependent, independent, and interdependent leadership cultures to help you evaluate what changes need to be made in your leadership approach.
