Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to explore the perceptions and characteristics of Servant Leadership in the workplace by business students and their managers using a mixed methods convergent parallel design. In general, Servant leadership is defined as a way of leading which places the needs of others above the leader’s own interests. To research this definition further, qualitative interview questions guiding this study revolved around learning if the construct of love is at the center of Servant Leadership, if there are differences between the words Servant and Service, and how Servant Leadership is perceived in the workplace. The quantitative research involved a survey to determine if business students and their managers perceived differences between the seven categorical characteristics of Servant Leadership including emotional healing, creating value for the community, conceptual skills, empowering, helping subordinates grow and succeed, putting subordinates first, and behaving ethically. A follow-up question examined whether the study participants identified these characteristics with Servant Leadership. The data resulted in little discrepancy in the perceptions of the characteristics by the study participants and that they would not identify these characteristics with this style of leadership. Overall the findings indicated that business managers feel comfortable assigning the specific characteristics of Servant Leadership to their employees but seem to have difficulty with assigning the name “Servant Leader” to them. These results illustrated the importance of word choice when understanding the perceptions around this kind of leadership and how future research of it may involve changing the name to better incorporate the actions within the leadership theory. The implications of the research justified the term “Servant Leadership” continues to be unclear for business professionals even if they are willing to attribute Servant Leadership characteristics to their employees or themselves. Furthermore, they do not seem as open to use the term “Servant Leader” to describe them. Redefining Servant Leadership with a new name such as “Service Leadership”, a new definition, and revised model may provide a clearer understanding allowing reluctant business leaders and business students to adapt this worthwhile leadership theory that so many praise and value.

Book Emotional Intelligence and Leadership Styles

Download or read book Emotional Intelligence and Leadership Styles written by Eniola O. Olagundoye and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 2019 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All around the world, information technology is evolving at an alarming rate, and it could be challenging keeping up with the growing changes that we are witnessing with it. This paper explored the relationship between emotional intelligence and leadership styles among information technology professionals. Does emotional intelligence predict leadership style and do leadership styles predict emotional intelligence components? A total of 185 participants were involved in this study. The leadership styles, which are comprised of transformational, transactional, and passive-avoidant, were measured by the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire - MLQ 5X (Bass & Avolio, 1995). The emotional intelligence components, which are comprised of perception of emotion, managing own emotions, managing others’ emotions and utilization of emotion, were measured by the Schutte Self-Report Emotional Intelligence Test -- SSEIT (Schutte et al., 2009). The demographic areas controlled in this study include gender, age, ethnicity, education, and tenure. Multiple regression was conducted on each of the seven hypotheses in this study, and it was determined that transformational leadership style and transactional leadership style were predictors of perception of emotion, managing others’ emotions and utilization of emotion. This study also revealed that transformational leadership style was a predictor of managing own emotions. Surprisingly, transactional leadership style was not a predictor of managing own emotions. As expected, there was no significant correlation discovered between passive-avoidant leadership style and emotional intelligence. Furthermore, the results showed that emotional intelligence was a predictor of both transformational and transactional leadership styles. This study discovered that gender was a significant variable, and females scored higher than males in the emotional intelligence component of managing others’ emotions. The findings in this study coincide with the body of literature that exists, which revealed positive relationships between emotional intelligence components and transformational and transactional leadership styles.

Book The Role of Emotional Intelligence in Community College Leadership

Download or read book The Role of Emotional Intelligence in Community College Leadership written by Curt Alan Freed and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study explores the role of emotional intelligence in community college leaders using a case study design with mixed-methods, including quantitative and qualitative data. Twenty-one leaders among three cases participated in the study, each completing the Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT) and participating in semi-structured interviews about how leaders use emotional intelligence to accomplish their work. Each case represents a single comprehensive community college in Washington or Oregon. Leaders included presidents, vice presidents, deans, and directors. The study addresses three research questions, including: How do community college leaders use emotional intelligence in their administrative duties? How does emotional intelligence shape organizational management and fulfillment of organizational objectives? What role does emotional intelligence have in leadership during challenging times? Findings identified several factors related to emotional intelligence and community college leaders. First, leaders often lacked knowledge of how they use emotional intelligence. Second, leaders with the highest emotional intelligence focused more on the teams and culture of the institution. Third, presidents were high in Strategic Area Ability on the MSCEIT instrument, suggesting presidents have a strong ability to understand and regulate emotions. Recommendations for future research include an exploration of the relationship between introvert/extrovert personality traits and emotional intelligence; further study on leadership effectiveness and emotional intelligence; and the impact of emotional intelligence among governing boards on community college leaders.

Book Organizational Influence Processes

Download or read book Organizational Influence Processes written by Robert W. Allen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 711 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With more than two-thirds fresh material, this new updated edition of Organizational Influence Processes provides an overview of the most important scholarly work on topics related to the exercise of influence by individuals and groups within organizations. In selecting articles for inclusion the editors were guided by the conviction that the most useful and interesting way to view organizational influence is to take a directional approach - that is, to consider the process from the perspective of downward, lateral, and upward influence. They have organized the readings around this framework, preceded by an introductory group of articles dealing more generally with the nature of influence processes and power. The book includes both classic readings and the latest cutting edge research from some of the most respected experts writing in the field. It will be equally useful for any upper level undergraduate or graduate course concerned with organizational behavior, group behavior, leadership or power and politics.

Book Emotional Intelligence As a leadership Strategy to Make Leaders Great

Download or read book Emotional Intelligence As a leadership Strategy to Make Leaders Great written by Dr. Whitney Stevens and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2011-12-16 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, University of Phoenix, language: English, abstract: Twenty successful leaders in the United States participated in the study to explore the extent to which emotional intelligence supports leadership potential and success. Competent managers with strong leadership skills are scarce (Cafolla, 2008). According to Goleman (2001), EQ might predict up to 90% of the variance in leadership effectiveness by uncovering strong positive effects of leadership commitment and effectiveness that support strong influences on leadership effectiveness. This modified Delphi study extended research on the emotional intelligence competencies to explore future possibilities of improving leadership success at mid- to high-level management tiers. The results of this study provide evidence to support emotional intelligence and leadership potential, validating the need for EQ as a leadership strategy. The Delphi study results recommended training to increase EQ in leaders and asserted that leaders with high levels of EQ are likely to improve overall organizational results, reduce turnover, reduce fraud and low performance, improve moral, and make organizations a better place to work.
