7. Discussion
As per the findings it was noted that four main processes had led to effective team
leadership in green building projects that achieved LEED certification (see Figure 1).
These processes are proactive planning and visualization; collective implementation;
teamwork for win-win; and, continuous learning and knowledge sharing. In all the
four processes, it was evident how the team shared the leadership roles between them,
rather than relying on the project manager or the LEED consultant to perform
such role.
