Effective inclusive leaders build consensus, coordination and shared structure.

Evidence

First, PBp’s approach was exclusive while DMp’s was inclusive. This is apparent in PBp’s explicit determination to act alone. It is apparent in the substance of the proposals: whereas PBp advocates an exclusive approach based on individual acts of heroic subversion, DMp advocates an inclusive approach in which everyone works together to advance the group position. … Second, PBp’s approach was conflictual while DMp’s approach was consensual. Heroic subversion involves constant acts aimed against the guards whereas the forum involves prisoners and guards working together in a common enterprise. … Third, while PBp advocated an uncertain and erratic way forward which is dependent upon unpredictable acts, DMp proposed a clear structure to implement his cooperative version of guard– prisoner identity and a process by which to achieve that structure. … Thus he initiated structure (Fleishman & Peters, 1962), but critically, this structure was an instantiation of a shared social identity. — Stephen Reicher, S.
