Abstract
This is a qualitative study conducted on six managers in different
enterprises both within private and public sector. The managers had

method inspired of grounded theory to understand how leadership

Theories about self-efficacy, successful leadership and learning were
used to understand the result. The difference between a manager and a
leader is also investigated.
The result shows that one of the most important aspects of the
leadership program was the interaction with the other participants.
There were also other aspects that were important for the individual
manager but not for the group as a whole. In terms of what is viewed
as attributes of a successful leadership they all describe different
things but with the common factor that it is attributes of leadership.
When they were asked how they thought they would describe it before
the program they answered with attributes more commonly viewed as
attributes of management. They had as a result of longer time as a
manager and the participation in the leadership program changed their
perspective on what is in fact a leader. (Less)

Resultatet visar att en av de viktigaste aspekterna av ledarskapsprogram var samspelet och gemenskapen med de andra deltagarna. Det fanns även andra aspekter som var viktiga för den enskilda chefen men inte för gruppen som helhet. I fråga om vad som ses som attribut i ett framgångsrikt ledarskap beskriver de alla olika saker, men med den gemensamma faktorn att det är attribut förknippade med ledarskap. När de tillfrågades om hur de trodde att de skulle beskriva det innan programmet svarade de med attribut som mer kopplas till chefskap. Cheferna hade genom längre tid som chef och genom deltagandet i ledarskapsprogrammet ändrat sin syn på vad som är att betrakta som en ledare. (Less)
