Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book serves as an instructional tool for development of skills related to the organizational leadership of adults. The text offers teaching cases that explicitly partner the leadership and adult development literature bases so readers can work to apply leadership for adult development to real-world scenarios. Case Studies in Leadership and Adult Development: Applying Theoretical Perspectives to Real World Challenges consists of 19 chapters, organized into three parts. Part I includes four chapters drawn from business and industry leaders' experiences encompassing cases from nonprofit, for-profit, and non-governmental agencies. Part II delves into three chapters that focus on the challenges of leading through crisis, including how the Coronavirus pandemic shapes decision making and impacts leadership in both K - 12 and higher education environments. Part III offers a comprehensive view of education through 12 chapters, four of which are drawn from higher education settings. Part III's balance includes cases from elementary, middle, and secondary schools and district-level leadership. Written for graduate level courses in adult education, each case focuses on at least one major theory from both the leadership and adult development domains. Including questions for discussion and reflection, the book allows students to explore the linkages between leadership theories and adult development theories within the context of real-world scenarios.

Book Anchoring Cultural Change and Organizational Change

Download or read book Anchoring Cultural Change and Organizational Change written by Patrick McDevitt and published by IAP. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the organizational processes and changes coupled with leadership changes over three distinct eras from 1995-2015. It illustrates the challenges the college faced, and the actions taken to resolve issues and make changes. The successes, and the barriers encountered as the organization worked toward solutions to the many interrelated and confounding social and financial issues with which the college was facing, are also described. In the book, John Kotter’s Steps of Organizational change and culture is the theoretical context in the analysis of data. Kotter stresses the point that in Organizational change the “Culture” must be anchored in order for change to take place successfully. Kotter understands “Culture” as the Organization’s Identity and the Organization’s attitude for “Change”. The concept of “Culture” also includes how “Identity” and “Change” interrelate to one another. Unfortunately, this “anchoring of culture” does not often happen in many organizations which leads to failure and the dying of Organizations. In general, Kotter’s theory is typically used in for-profit organizations, whereas the All Hallows’ study applies Kotter’s theory to a faith-based and non-profit organization. Although All Hallows enjoyed 172 years of educational contributions, the book will illustrate how legacy challenges, sense of complacency, lack of vision and mission identity at critical times of change failed to inculcate and anchor an Organizational Culture and Identity for Change.
