Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book was written with one idea in mind: to provide newly appointed or promoted managerial leaders with the knowledge namely the MOST Effective Managerial Leadership Framework to quickly become more effective managerial leaders. It does this by quickly laying out for the reader a set of principles that can be immediately applied to their daily work life to increase their effectiveness as managerial leaders (Or even (grandparent)parents, older siblings, student project group team leaders). The critical knowledge is encapsulated in a mnemonic device to aid in quick recall and application. The book itself is then written in crisp, clear language that is easily understood. In addition, bearing in mind that people learns differently, the book is split into two halves. The first half of the book illustrates the mnemonic device The MOST Effective Managerial Leadership Framework using a storybook/fairy tale approach for those who learn best through exploratory narratives. The second half of the book explains the mnemonic device in simple, clear, unadorned instructional guide forms. It is left to the readers himself or herself to decide which learning method to use. Next, the book is designed as an "atomic" self-guide book that could be read in a short sitting perhaps an hour. Finally, it is intended that the book can be substituted for the annual Company Christmas Party useless-table-ornament-costing-less-than-ten-dollars Gift Exchange item. Senior Managers may also purchase it as a present for entry level or newly appointed or promoted managers or even staff identified as potential future managerial leaders.

Download or read book The Practice of Managerial Leadership written by Nancy R. Lee and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-08-31 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Practice of Managerial Leadership describes the comprehensive, science-based set of principles and practices called Requisite Organization, developed by Dr. Elliott Jaques and his colleagues through consulting research work over 55 years in 15 countries. Nancy Lee worked with Dr. Jaques for more than 20 years. The book is written for managers at all levels and is focused on the managerial role because this is where guidelines are most needed to accomplish the goals of the organization. The use of these ideas results in increased productivity and profitability, enhances trust and provides employees with a healthy working environment conducive to personal growth. His thinking was a monumental reformulation of the basis of human capacity and organizational structure, reflected in thirty books. Jaques not only posited different levels of conceptual thinking among human beings but also elaborated the curves of that thinking over an adult lifetime. In turn, his conceptualization gave rise to a new logic for organizational structure, an area that had had no logic for organizational leadership and accountability. Jaques work requires readers to take the necessary time to grasp his innovation. It also requires radical change in how executives are chosen and companies are organized. Like all new thinking his work necessitates testing the applications in ones own organization. But grasping complexity need not be an overwhelming task. In this book Nancy Lee, herself an organizational consultant long immersed in Jaques conceptualization efforts, has made his thinking much easier to grasp. That, in turn, should make this volume, highly useful to executives, consultants and graduate students who seek to make organizations more effective. Dr. Harry Levinson, Emeritus Clinical Professor of Psychology at Harvard Medical School has provided a brief background on Dr. Jaques.

Download or read book The Practice of Managerial Leadership written by Nancy R. Lee and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2007-05 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Practice of Managerial Leadership describes a total system for managing organizations. This practical system is made up of a integrated set of principles, practices and procedures. The concepts in the system are logical and consistent and have been developed over 50 years by Dr. Elliott Jaques and his colleagues in 15 countries, through continuing consulting research work in organizations. Dr. Jaques called this system Requisite Organization. He chose the term 'requisite' to describe this integrated theory of how organizations work best because requisite means 'as required by the nature of things'. The ideas contained in Requisite Organization theory and practice flow from the nature of things--the nature of people, the nature of work and the nature of the relationship between the two. Nancy Lee worked with Dr. Jaques for more than two decades and he edited the material in this book for accuracy in providing a detailed description of Requisite Organization. Managerial hierarchies exist to get work done in order to achieve their goals. Achieving these goals requires an organization that is appropriately structured, competent individuals at each organizational level, and procedures and practices that facilitate the work. This book deals with organizations that employ people--managerial hierarchies where accountability is delegated through the organization from the owners/board members. People are employed within these managerial hierarchies as individuals (not as teams or as partners) to do the work required. The material in the book is largely focused on the role of the manager because that is where most of the guidelines are needed in order to accomplish the work of the organization. It is the work of managers that determines the results achieved with the available resources. Requisite practices enable decisive, accountable, value-adding managerial leadership throughout the organization. There is also information on the roles and accountabilities of non-managerial subordinates. Each employee needs to understand fully his or her own role and the organization's structure and practices. All of the principles in Requisite Organization are intended to enhance trust between employees in the organization and employees and the organization. Trust and understanding are further enhanced in Requisite Organization by the explicit definition of commonly used business terms such as 'work'. 'role' and 'manager' that are generally ill- defined and ambiguous. Describing requisite practices and procedures in a consistent language that everyone understands provides clarity about what should be done and how to do it. The book contains a glossary defining important words and concepts used in managerial work. This book is written for managers in all types of managerial hierarchies including commercial, not-for-profit and governmental. The ideas are equally useful for managers at all levels in organizations. The principles and practices about managerial leadership described in detail in this book have been tested and put into practice in organizations throughout the world. This book introduces the material contained in Dr. Jaques' books, Social Power and the CEO and Requisite Organization: A Total System for Effective Managerial Organization and Managerial Leadership for the 21st Century, as well as his series of video tapes about Requisite Organization. The chapters in this book are organized in a manner similar to the videotapes so that they can be used together, if desired. The videotapes can be ordered from Cason Hall Publishers at 800-448-7357. Chapter One describes the Basic Concepts of Requisite Organization. Chapter Two deals with Human Capability, Chapter Three describes Working Relationships and Chapter Four discusses the Organization Structure required to establish work and functions at the right level in the organization and Chapter Five describes

Book excerpt: Who will lead your workforce during rapid change? Gallup research reveals: It’s the manager. While the world’s workplace has been going through historic change, the practice of management has been stuck in time for decades. The new workforce — especially younger generations — wants their work to have deep mission and purpose. They don’t want old-style command-and-control bosses. They want coaches who inspire them, communicate with them frequently and develop their strengths. Who is the most important person in your organization to lead your teams through these changes? Decades of global Gallup research reveal: It’s your managers. They are the ones who make or break your organization’s success. Packed with 52 discoveries from Gallup’s largest study of the future of work, It’s the Manager shows leaders and managers how to adapt their organizations to rapid change — from new workplace demands to the challenges of managing remote employees, the rise of artificial intelligence, gig workers, and attracting and keeping today’s best employees. Great managers maximize the potential of every team member and drive your organization’s growth. And they give every one of your employees what they want most: a great job and a great life. This is the future of work. It’s the Manager includes a unique code to take the CliftonStrengths assessment, which reveals your top five strengths, as well as supplemental content available on Gallup’s online workplace platform.

Download or read book Effective Leadership and Management in the Early Years written by Janet Moyles and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2006-11-16 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Effective Leadership and Management in the Early Years … is the best analysis of leadership and management that I have come across. It is a highly practical tool and a resource that will enable early years practitioners at different stages of professional development to explore, understand, rate and develop their leadership and management expertise.’ Jillian Rodd, Educational and Developmental Psychologist There has recently been an unprecedented focus on early years care and education, particularly on the impact of the various adults who work and play with children in the birth to five/six-years age range. Staff in early years settings have had to adapt to many changes and demands, locally and nationally, from local authorities and national government, and none more so than those who suddenly find themselves in a leadership and management role in increasingly complex small early years businesses and settings, often without formal training or qualifications. The book is unique in providing not only a thorough analysis of the leader and manager’s role and presenting it as a typology, but also in offering a clear and in-depth view of that role. It also presents ways in which the leader and manager can undertake self-evaluation or work alongside a peer to understand their own strengths and challenges more readily. The book conceptualises effective leadership and management as a tree, with the four key ‘branches’ of effective leadership and management defined as: Leaderships Qualities Management Skills Professional Attributes Personal Characteristics and Attitudes Effective Leadership and Management in the Early Years is an essential tool for all those who lead and manage within early years settings, which they can use for evaluating their effectiveness.
