Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construct validity of a leadership behavior rating system used by the U.S. Military Academy (USMA) was examined as a prelude to a longitudinal program of research on leadership development. Their system centers on Cadet performance Report (CPR) ratings made by superior, peer, and subordinate raters. CPR ratings include individual scores on 12 leadership behavior dimensions and a global score of performance. Two CPR dimensions, duty motivation and military hearing, were found to be most strongly related to the CPR global score and the leadership grade, which is USMA's official evaluation of a cadet's overall performance in a leadership role. Although this finding was consistent for each type of rater, the relationship of other dimensions to the global score and leadership grade suggested different types of raters focussed on different dimensions when evaluating overall leadership performance. Additionally, four broader factors were found to underlie the 12 CPR dimensions, based on a synthesis of the results from principle components analyses. Consistent with other leadership behavior taxonomies and other research concerning the effects of rater position on the leadership evaluation process, our findings offer some evidence of the construct validity of the CPR dimensions for measuring cadet leadership performance.

Download or read book Assessing Organizational Behaviors written by Magno Oliveira Macambira and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-13 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book fills a gap in international literature by providing critical reviews on variables of organizational behavior and the main psychological instruments developed to measure them. Measuring instruments developed with theoretical and methodological rigor in the field of Organizational and Work Psychology can contribute to the development of diagnostic analyses to enable organizations to implement the evidence-based changes required for their survival. These changes demand diagnoses based on precise assessments of organizational and individual variables, but many times the professionals responsible for conducting these assessments are not sure of what is the best measuring instrument available. This book is intended to serve as a guide to these professionals. The volume is divided in two parts. The first part brings together chapters dedicated to the following micro-organizational variables: Job Crafting, reactions to organizational change, Psychological Wellbeing at Work, Bridge Employment Assessment in the Work-Retirement Transition, Resilience at Work, and Leadership in Organizations. The second part presents the state-of-the-art of research on the following macro-organizational constructs: Quality of Life at Work, Organizational Climate for Creativity, Values and Organizations, Assessments of Organizational Support, and Contributions by Social Networks Analysis and Organizational Effectiveness. The last chapter presents a critical discussion about the nature and future of organization behavior measuring. Assessing Organizational Behaviors: A Critical Analysis of Measuring Instruments is intended to help market professionals select the diagnostic instruments that best fit into their organizational reality in order to correctly assess organizational behavior. The book will also be of interest to researchers and students in the field of Organizational and Work Psychology as it provides comprehensive overviews of a wide range of instruments developed to measure different variables of organizational behavior.

Download or read book Leadership Styles and Spiritual Traits of Catholic Priests written by Rev. Fr. Francis Aning Amoah, . Industrial PhD and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-07-26 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aning Amoah's Leadership Styles and Spiritual Traits of Catholic Priests explore the relationship between leadership styles (transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire) and spiritual traits (self-directedness (SD), cooperativeness (CO), and self-transcendence (ST). The quantitative correlational study sampled 93 catholic priests from Ghana in active ministry. The results showed a statistically significant correlation between transformational leadership and spiritual traits, a nonstatistical correlation between transactional leadership and spiritual trait variables, a negative statistically significant correlation between laissez-faire leadership style with self-directedness and cooperativeness, and a positive statistically significant correlation between laissez-faire leadership style and self-transcendence. Thus, the more catholic priests provide guidance, counseling, teaching, and shepherding among congregation as a transformational leader, the more likely they will be reliable, mature, effective, helpful, compassionate, and spiritual. Contrary, the more catholic priests become laissez-faire leader, the more likely they will be weak, blaming, ineffective, emotionally unstable, lacking internal organizational principles (low SD), self-absorbed, intolerant, critical, revengeful and self-regarding (low CO), and absorbed in what they do, spiritual and capable of adapting to situation of pain and suffering (high ST).
