Parkdale Project Read (PPR) has been providing adult literacy programming in the Parkdale neighbourhood west of Toronto, Canada since the 1980s. The staff at PPR work as a collective in which everyone shares the same title and pay rate as part of a commitment to equality, democracy and collaboration. The collective structure serves as an alternative to hierarchical models. Three research questions guided this study to understand leadership in a collective structure: (1) How do the staff members who work in a collective organizational structure share the work of leadership as a group; (2) What is considered the work of leadership in a collective in terms of the staff members' day-to-day work; and (3) How does the collective organizational structure influence the staff members' understanding and performance of the work of leadership as individuals and as a group. Using narrative inquiry as methodology which included interviews, observations and a group writing exercise, I worked with eight participants representing all four of the current collective members at PPR (at the time of the study) and four former collective members. The participants told their stories of working in the collective and of sharing leadership with others in the collective. In retelling the stories shared with me by the participants and drawing from Bourdieu's thinking tools of habitus, capital and field, I discuss how the collective structure influences the understanding and performance of leadership by the collective members as individuals and as a group through the way they relate to each other. At the same time, the collective members change the way the collective operates with their actions and relationships. The results from this study highlight how a collective shares leadership among its members and challenge how we typically conceptualize leadership by illustrating the dynamic interactions between agency and structure.
