Abstract	In the leadership development sector, it is widely acknowledged that there is a gap between the theory and practice of leadership. Within the field, rapid changes in business, technology, political, and social factors have resulted in a genuine need for knowledge workers to put into practice leadership skills and to draw conclusions about the interplay between their own roles, domain, and organizational context. This article puts forward an arts-based leadership training approach that uses improvisatory theater techniques, which allows knowledge workers to engage reflexively in the concept of shared leadership. The major focus of this approach is to develop shared leadership competencies among participants, which they acquire by acting out different scenarios they are presented with. This paper argues that art-based leadership activities can be an effective means of fostering confidence, being empowered to lead and leading others through change. It argues for the need to steer away from traditional models of leadership towards a transformative model using an art-based approach. This essay also presents key features shared leadership before discussing the proposed model in greater detail. (As Provided).
