Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership skills are essential for a successful career as a leader, yet many organizational training programs do not offer formal training in leadership development. The Rock Dimensional Consulting firm conducts a one-day leadership seminar that consists of corporate Leaders, Pastors, and lay leaders. The seminar attendees have consistently rated this workshop as highly practical and interactive experience. However, opportunities for structured training in leadership competencies during the subsequent five to ten years are limited. Given the success of the Leadership ReCourseseminar and the need for continuity in this model of leadership training, we also conduct half-day workshops for new and current leaders to foster continued organizational training. The seminar curriculum focuses on the leadership areas of strategy, structure, culture, teams, performance management and assessments, leadership styles, and leadership development, which manages the organizational structure and navigate leadership transitions. Also, the curriculum emphasizes both short-term competencies, such as effective participation as a member of a leadership team, and long-term competencies, such as the leadership of a research team, division, or department. The inaugural leadership seminar, held in April 2018, was assessed by leader participants to be well-organized and highly relevant to leadership concepts and skills. The participants' training manual serves as a tool for future reference and training within the organization. The overall objective of the seminar is to Revisit, Innovate, and Reengage the fundamental aspects of leadership development and the importance of continuously developing leaders well into the 21st Century and beyond.

It also belongs in the libraries of well-being and health practitioners who frequently deal with businesspeople as clients or patients.

Download or read book What is Human Recourse Strategy written by Elisabeth Luger and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2004-02-11 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: A, Trinity College Dublin (Personal), language: English, abstract: The field of Human Recourse Strategy (HRS) is a relatively new area of research and therefore a lot of different approaches and opinions exist. With the emergence of different schools, approaches and frameworks the gap between the academic world and the one of managers and their businesses widened up. Therefore, Wright and McMahan (2001, p.50) suggest the need for a good theory, which goes in line with the business strategy field where Elfring and Volberda (2001) see the need for synchronizing the diverse ideas which have developed (2001). To get the whole picture I will first illustrate the historical background and the value of Human Recourse Strategy (HRS), then go on to the different approaches of HRS and also examine if these approaches are rather a plan, an outcome or a process. Finally, I will conclude with an own perspective on the HRS field.

Download or read book Real Leadership written by Dean WIlliams and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2005-10-10 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too many organizations today play follow the leader: the commander articulates a “vision” and people uncritically go along with it. But this type of leadership—what Dean Williams calls "counterfeit leadership"—generates an unhealthy dependence on an authority figure and relies on dominance, control, and group seduction to get things done. By hampering people's ability to anticipate and react to changing circumstances, it creates a self-limiting cycle. And if the leader's vision is flawed, the entire organization suffers. The true task of a leader, Williams argues, is to get people to face the reality of any situation themselves and develop strategies to deal with problems or take advantage of opportunities. Real leaders don't dictate; they help people face their challenges and make adjustments in their values, habits, practices, and priorities to ensure the enterprise is given its best chance to succeed. Williams details how to apply this new approach to the challenges every organization or community faces. Throughout, he demonstrates the practical application of real leadership in the real world through examples from his own experiences working with organizations as diverse as the government of Singapore, Aetna Life and Casualty, and the nomadic Penan tribe in Borneo, as well as historical examples and the insights gleaned from his many interviews with presidents, prime ministers, and business leaders. At a time when so many “visionary” leaders have led their organizations to disaster, Real Leadership offers a needed, proven alternative.

Download or read book The Art and Adventure of Leadership written by Warren Bennis and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-04-06 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, a top leadership scholar and a top leadership practitioner explore the true duties, demands, and privileges of leadership. Intellectual sparks flew when Warren Bennis, the “father” of modern leadership studies and Steven B. Sample, one of the most accomplished university presidents in recent history, came together for candid explorations of the forces that shape successful leaders and unsuccessful ones. The Art and Adventure of Leadership, their final collaboration, reveals the profound insights that the authors gained together over the 16 years in which they co-taught one of the most popular leadership courses in America. Here, each brings his own distinct vantage point as they address the mechanics and mysteries of leadership. The result is a unique examination of the journey of great leaders from momentary setbacks to ultimate success. It offers profound lessons on what determines the difference between failure and redemption for leaders. And it illuminates important and overlooked dimensions of great leaders ranging from Winston Churchill to Steve Jobs. Together, they explore why: A mature leader must grasp when it’s healthy to risk failure, and when failure can’t be tolerated at any cost Leadership isn’t for everyone and requires a particular set of skills and competencies that are often glossed over in most management literature To succeed in an uncertain and fast-changing world, a shrewd leader must understand which aspects of human society change—and which aspects never change A mature, wise leader must seek a balance between high-minded ideals and the gritty realities and compromises that leaders face in their daily lives Above all, meaningful leadership remains a matter of character With incredible insight, this book examines why George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and other giants were able to recover from failures, learn resilience, and prepare themselves for their moments of destiny. In so doing, it demonstrates and helps cultivate the leadership skills that you need to create your own most meaningful legacy. The Art and Adventure of Leadership is a unique look at leadership, and a critical resource for the leaders of tomorrow.
