Personal Characteristics of the Effective Group Leader (Corey & Corey, 1997)

1.       Courage – it does not mean being without fears but rather it means acknowledging fears and dealing with them.

2.       Willingness to model – leaders teach by example

3.       Presence – being emotionally present is extremely important

4.       Goodwill and Caring – A sincere interest in the welfare of others is essential

5.       Belief in group process – believe in what you are doing and the trust the therapeutic forces within a group

6.       Openness – be open to yourself, open to members of the group, open to new experiences, and open to lifestyles and values that differ from your own

7.       Becoming aware of your own culture – knowing how your own culture influences your decisions and daily behavior provides a frame of reference for understanding the world view of those who differ from you.

8.       Non defensiveness in coping with attacks – Dealing frankly with criticism is related to openness

9.       Personal power – does not entail domination of members or manipulation of them toward the leader’s end. Rather it is the dynamic and vital characteristics of leaders who know who they are and what they want. This power involves a certain confidence in the self and certain charisma.

10.   Stamina – Group leading can be taxing and draining as well as exciting and energizing. Therefore you need physical and psychological stamina and the ability to withstand pressure to remain vitalized throughout the course of a group

11.   Willingness to seek new experiences – personhood is largely determined by the variety of life experiences

12.   Self-awareness – A central characteristic for any therapeutic person is an awareness of self, including one’s identity, cultural perspective, goals, motivations, needs, limitations, strengths, values, feelings and problems

13.   Sense of humor – Although therapy is serious business there are many humorous dimensions of the human condition.

14.   Inventiveness – The capacity to be spontaneously creative, approaching each group with fresh ideas, is a most important characteristic.

15.   Personal dedication and commitment – Being a professional who makes a difference involves having ideals that provide meaning and direction in your life. It also involves humility which means being open to feedback and ideas and being willing to explore one’s self.
