The goal of this volume is to capture that diversity, and thereby convey the breadth and excitement of small group research by acquainting students with work on five fundamental aspects of groups. The volume also includes an introductory chapter by the editors which provides an overview of the history of and current state-of-the-art in the field. Together with introductions to each section, discussion questions and suggestions for further reading, make the volume ideal reading for senior undergraduate and graduate students interested in group dynamics.

This book was released on 1975 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current trend within the Department of Defense is to reduce the force structure without impairing mission accomplishment. To this end, emphasis is being placed upon improving the management of people. Managers are being asked to do more with fewer personnel. If they are to be expected to achieve more with fewer people, then there should be an organized effort to provide those managers with methods to improve managing human resources. This paper briefly traces the emergence since the end of World War II of certain aspects of behavioral science as they apply to the manager. The result of the post World War II studies led social scientists to seriously consider the possibilities of the inter-action between leaders and groups in various situations as a fruitful area for extensive research. Within this general research area this paper reviews one contemporary theory, Fiedler's Contingency Model of Leadership Effectiveness, to determine its possible applicability to the program manager.

Download or read book Resonant Leadership written by Richard Boyatzis and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2005-09-14 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The blockbuster best seller Primal Leadership introduced us to "resonant" leaders--individuals who manage their own and others' emotions in ways that drive success. Leaders everywhere recognized the validity of resonant leadership, but struggled with how to achieve and sustain resonance amid the relentless demands of work and life. Now, Richard Boyatzis and Annie McKee provide an indispensable guide to overcoming the vicious cycle of stress, sacrifice, and dissonance that afflicts many leaders. Drawing from extensive multidisciplinary research and real-life stories, Resonant Leadership offers a field-tested framework for creating the resonance that fuels great leadership. Rather than constantly sacrificing themselves to workplace demands, leaders can manage the cycle using specific techniques to combat stress, avoid burnout, and renew themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally. The book reveals that the path to resonance is through mindfulness, hope, and compassion and shows how intentionally employing these qualities creates effective and enduring leadership. Great leaders are resonant leaders. Resonant Leadership offers the inspiration--and tools--to spark and sustain resonance in ourselves and in those we lead.
Download or read book The Contingency Model of Leadership Effectiveness and Its Implications for Military Managers written by David I. Brown and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research was an effort to assess the validity of Professor Fiedler's Contingency Model of Leadership Effectiveness within an operational military organization. The model and the theory that it represents postulate that leadership effectiveness is contingent upon the leadership style (motivational structure) of the work group leader and three situational variables: the favorability of leader-member relations (group atmosphere), the degree to which the primary group task is clear or ambiguous (task structure) and the degree of formal authority which the organization bestows upon the leader (position power). The three situational variables establish the degree of situational favorability for the leader with good group atmosphere, a structured task, and high position power being the highest degree of situational favorability. Leaders can be identified as being primarily task oriented or primarily interpersonal relationship oriented. (Modified author abstract).
