How do I get my Team Leader to open up?

My Team Leader can be moody and we have our disagreements, but generally we get on well. I can't help feeling that the team would interact with her better if she shared a little of herself or came on team nights out sometimes, but she is very reserved and thinks it is unprofessional to let colleagues see much of the real person.

I guess she's really afraid of loosing authority. Perhaps coming up with a more "business" approach, like a team building experience. The best way is to have the team organize it, not the leader (could even be made a surprise).

Yes, they cost some money, but not too much and you have a very good reason for it: better interaction with the team leader.

It seems she wants to stay as a team leader and having said that then there is a restriction of much she can actually open up without compromising herself to her subordinates. If the leader wants an atmosphere of professionalism then the rest of the team should stride to making their team professional.
