Some creative ways to encourage people to follow your leadership without formal authority include being someone who is an ideas catalyst - brainstorm, listen, and share ideas that show you're open to everyone’s; developing your ability and the ability of those around you – provide coaching when possible; allowing everyone an opinion and making sure it gets heard (whilst still keeping order & creating safe space); demonstrating a passion for continuous learning; staying present with team members despite the absence of direct ‘tangible’ rewards; encouraging critical feedback from team members; providing social recognition for those who make an effort in following your leadership guidance.
