Conclusions

So ends the dialogue among people with differing perspectives and practices. Stereotypes can easily be elicited, and constructive behavior can often be misunderstood. Yet, the dialogue must take place. Biases and untested assumptions must be unearthed, so that all of us might gain from the assistance of those who are different from us. It seems that these differences can complement our own understanding of the world in which we live. They can add depth and breadth to the actions we must take to improve the world of health care.

In the next two essays in this series, I offer a set of leadership styles that help to bridge the divide that may exist among these three fundamental styles. DISC provides a description of one of these “hybrid” styles, while the Leadership Spectrum provides four styles of leadership that combine two or even all three of these styles—creating a new world of leadership colors: Royal Purple, Tangy Orange, Verdant Green – and Rainbow.
