Book Leadership  Leaders and Leading

Download or read book Leadership Leaders and Leading written by Ronald R. Sims and published by IAP. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why with hundreds and hundreds of books on leadership to choose from, why another one?” The answer is simple. Given the importance of leadership and leaders in organizations there will always be efforts to try to improve our understanding on how we can improve the leadership process. Leadership, Leaders and Leading focuses on the age old reality that successful organizations will continue to need effective leaders at all levels. The book is based on the premise that effective leaders need to be able to establish a shared vision and accompanying strategy that other members of the organization strongly believe in and are willing to help execute. The book argues that we can continue to learn from traditional and contemporary theories and myths about effective leadership & leaders and how they can successfully lead an increasingly diverse and demanding workforce, consumers and the broader society. The book discusses foundational leadership skills like motivation, communication, building leader-follower relationships, groups and teams, developing others, conflict, negotiation and organizational politics along with highlighting the important role leaders should play in the areas of human resource management, ethics, crisis and reputation management, sustainability/sustainable development, and cybersecurity. Each chapter offers the opportunity for the reader to increase their understanding of leadership, leaders and leading in an increasingly dynamic world of work. This book is written for those who are interested in the continued effort and dialogue on what effective leadership, leaders and leading should entail in the coming years.

Book Management and Leadership Development

Download or read book Management and Leadership Development written by Christopher Mabey and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2007-12-12 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `This is the first really thought-provoking book that I have read on management development. It is a book primarily addressed to students, but in this field, we are all students. It merits a wide readership both among practising managers as well as among those responsible for developing them′ - Max Boisot, ESADE `Mabey and Finch-Lees inject a breath of fresh air into the management development field by expanding upon its heretofore functionalist base. They offer an informative critique of mainstream views, featuring alternative discourses to examine such hard questions as why management development hasn′t quite delivered on management′s considerable investment in it. As a veritable tour de force in its absorbing integration and review of a large tract of literature, the book informs both management scholars and practitioners what might be expected from management development′s intended but also unanticipated outcomes′ - Joe Raelin, Northeastern University `In a well-written, accessible and yet sophisticated text, Mabey and Finch-Lees show themselves to be as familiar with the latest in management development practice as they are with the sometimes arcane theoretical literature that surrounds it. Its great strength is to recognize the plurality of discourses - some overlapping and complementary, others distinct and oppositional - about the subject. This book can be recommended as a unique resource for students and scholars of management development′ - Chris Grey, University of Warwick This book represents a significant step forward in the theory of management and leadership development. It offers an international perspective in this era of globalisation and a new and questioning perspective on the common belief that leadership is something completely different to, and more important than, management. This book will be of great help to the serous theorist and researcher of management and leadership development. It is an invaluable point of reference for a broad range of theory and research in this area, which it summarises with admirable brevity and clarity′ - John G Burgoyne, Lancaster University Management School and Henley Management College Management development is a potent and high-profile human resource activity, involving some of the organizations′ key players and attracting huge hopes and investments from governments, organizations and individuals alike. Yet at several levels, the high expectations often remain unfulfilled. So why is this a subject and activity that continues to command such intense interest from scholars and practitioners alike? Chris Mabey and Tim Finch-Lees provide a fresh analysis of the concept and practice of management and leadership development (MLD). Grounded in research, the authors set out the current state of management and leadership development practices, before introducing readers to competing theories of MLD and offering them a more critical perspective. Throughout the book, ideas are illustrated by international case studies and vignettes that evoke the perceptions and interests of the whole range of stakeholders in the management development process. Management Development has been written for upper level undergraduate and masters level students pursuing courses in HRM, HRD, Leadership Development, Organizational Behaviour, Management, Organization Change, Personnel Management, and training and development modules.

Book Personnel Management and Leadership Styles  A Look at the Leadership Styles Found in Practice and Their Effects on Employees

Download or read book Personnel Management and Leadership Styles A Look at the Leadership Styles Found in Practice and Their Effects on Employees written by Thomas Berger and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-02-17 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject Leadership and Human Resource Management - Leadership, grade: 1,7, Helmut Schmidt University - University of the Federal Armed Forces Hamburg, language: English, abstract: The primary goal of every company is and remains profit maximization. In times of advancing globalization and the newly emerged international financial markets, companies are forced, in the context of the current financial crisis, to rationalize, to engage in detailed financial planning, to cut costs and to think through each of their steps carefully. It is not uncommon for companies' tight cost-cutting programs to have a direct impact on their employees, who are often forced to make concessions and accept restrictions. You don't have to look far for current examples of this in recent days and months. Temporary and short-time work characterize everyday life in many companies. This is, of course, bad for the motivation and the general willingness to perform of the staff, without whose manpower, economic success cannot be achieved. However, if one assumes that long-term profit maximization of an organization also presupposes the unrestricted willingness of the employees to perform, this is obviously in contrast to the respective cost-cutting measures with regard to personnel. It is therefore very important, even in difficult times, to encourage and motivate staff in such a way that they are prepared to back the company in the market, despite the restrictions outlined.

Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Management Styles, University of Southampton, course: Human Resource Management, language: English, abstract: A large variety of approaches has been suggested to the topic of leadership, which in organizational sciences, is positioned among the most explored and discussed theories (George, 2000); and indeed, leadership has been found out to have considerable effects on companies’ performances, playing a major role in organisational development, change, and rejuvenation (Clarke & Higgs, in press).

Book Tools and Techniques of Leadership and Management

Download or read book Tools and Techniques of Leadership and Management written by Ralph Stacey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-06-25 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of today’s books on the tools and techniques of leadership and management provide descriptions of long lists for use in decision-making, leading, coaching and project management. This book takes a completely different approach. It contests the claims that the tools and techniques are based on evidence and explains why human activities of leading and managing are simply not amenable to scientific proof and consequently, why long-term futures of organizations are unpredictable. The book undertakes a critical exploration of just what these tools and techniques are about; showing that while they may lead to competent performance they cannot go further to expert performance because expertise involves going beyond rules and procedures. Ralph Stacey investigates the many questions that are thrown up as a result of this new approach. Questions such as: How do we apply this new way of thinking? What are the practical tools and techniques it gives us? What is the role of leaders in an unpredictable world? How does complexity affect the way organizations are structured and function? This book will be relevant to students on courses and modules that deal with leadership, decision-making and organizational development and behaviour as well as professional leaders and managers who want to develop their own understanding and techniques.
