The Leadership Model 2.0 – Online Book Circle
BOOK CIRCLE OVERVIEW
You will read the book “The Leadership Model 2.0” alongside Carl Starendal and other participants over the course of 10 weeks. During this time, you will dive into the research-based Leadership model, learning how it bolsters and improves leadership within teams, teams of teams, and whole organizations.
Every two weeks, you will meet with Carl and the group for a 90-minute online session. In these sessions, we will explore the chapters you’ve read, engage in discussions about the content, and reflect on the material covered in the book.
Please note that this book circle will be conducted in Swedish.
FACILITATED BOOK CIRCLE FORMAT
- The book circle is held online in Swedish with 6–12 participants.
- It consists of 5 sessions, every other week via video conference in the Discord application, from 14:00–15:30 Swedish time.
- Each session includes a lecture part from Carl, related to the content, followed by an open discussion with questions from the participants and a review of what we are reading for the next meeting, as well as the reflection task for the coming week, which is done offline at one’s own pace.
- During and after the book circle, you have access to a common group chat in the Discord application, where we share additional articles, ideas, and reflections from the material, and where you can also reach the other participants and Carl Starendal during and after the book circle if you have questions or want to discuss something.
- You need to order the book yourself, which costs 400 SEK online so that you have time to read the first part before the first meeting. You will receive instructions on how to do this when you sign up.

BOOK: THE LEADERSHIP MODEL 2.0
The book “Leadership Model 2.0” is about models and theories of leadership based on research from the Swedish Defence University. It provides a focused and summarized description of various tools, models, and training used in leadership and is very useful for learning about leadership from a research-based perspective.
“The central hypothesis of the Leadership Model is that leadership is shaped through an interplay between the characteristics of the leader and the external social and cultural context. The Model consists of three main components: leader characteristics, contextual characteristics and leadership styles. The complex interplay between these components is described in detail and illustrated using a large number of examples. The Model also serves as the basis for three of the most widespread leadership programs in Sweden based on academic research: Developmental Leadership (UL), Understanding Group and Leader (UGL) and Indirect Leadership (IL).”
The Leadership Model also forms the theoretical basis for the very popular research-based leadership course Developmental Leadership (UL) that we offer through We Are Movement.
