Abstract

This chapter focuses on the experience and learnings of Réal Laporte, senior Hydro-Québec executive, who has grown, developed and gained his management skills in several megaprojects that built or refurbished hydroelectric dams and generation. According to Uhl-Bien, Marion, and McKelvey (2007), we use the Complexity Leadership theory to analyse Mr. Laporte leadership traits and highlights three entangled leadership roles (i.e., administrative leadership, adaptive leadership, and enabling leadership).
