In this assignment I aim to outline the advantages, disadvantages and overall effectiveness of the different styles of leadership.
A leadership philosophy helps to define and let others know what you expect, what things you value, and how you act as a leader. Different styles of leadership are needed for different situations. Every leader needs to know when and how to display a particular approach of leadership within a group. Leadership strategies define every leader’s personal leadership style. Three leadership styles of a counselor are the following: authoritarian style leaders, democratic style leaders, and laissez-faire style leaders.
As complex leaders, healthcare administrators need to develop competencies in initiating three fundamental activities that enable managing turbulence in a nonequilibrium environment:
Today a lot of the things we talked about really hit home with me, and I actually cried in a room full of strangers as I told them my story and why I chose to be a leader.
will become stronger and have more depth, which will allow the entire team to move forward in attempts to achieve their ultimate goals.
The three concepts that I found the most valuable during my academic lessons at Non-Commissioned Officer Academy Intermediate Leadership Experience would be the three elements of flexibility, the five traits of followership, and leadership influencing styles. These concepts are very important to me because they will make a positive change in myself and my leadership style. My goal to change my flexibility and, my overall adaptability, would be to change my default setting of dispositional flexibility to a more positive outlook. I currently may have a stand-offish/negative outlook when it comes to change. To be a more effective leader I must will myself to maintain a positive disposition to a changing environment. The next goal would be
There’s increasing need for new leadership and helping organizations develop innovative ways to build rapport with workers and improve their management skills. In the health care field, the development of compelling and inspiring leaders is critical. During this age, when the health care field and life in general are surrounded by clouds of uncertainty, medical professionals need encouragement in taking on responsibilities to the full extent of their capabilities. Health care advocates support a three-fold concept of vision, organizational culture and operational excellence to support this kind of work environment. With the right vision and encouragement, health care leaders can create rising
The 21st century healthcare worker should have characteristics and leadership styles that will fit the needs of the company. The different leadership qualities that need to be instilled in a good leader can be hard to find in one person. I started to research this topic and found there are several of the same qualities that generalize what an effective leader presents. According to our textbook “The well managed healthcare organization” by Griffith and White, a good leader will empower their associates, listen effectively, support excellent service and have good negotiating skills.
Leadership isn't for the faint of heart. There is a lot of responsibility involved. Plus, the success or failure of the work falls on the leader's shoulders. If a project or event was successful, the leader is praised. If the project was a failure, the leader is often viewed as a failure. If you're the leader of a company or would like to become a leader, it's best to know yourself well and identify who you are outside of the work you do. Otherwise, you run the risk of attaching your self-esteem to an organism that's forever-changing and inconsistent. In order to be the best leader you can be, implement these nine tips.
Leadership style research has been conducted examining multiple variables and settings, but the review of literature shows a need for more analysis of how such styles are being viewed by teachers in both high poverty and low poverty settings. School climate differences also need further examination to determine if teachers perceive their school climate differently in high poverty and low poverty schools. Chapter three describes the sampling procedures, research methodology, instrumentation, data collection, data analysis and procedures for the study of leadership styles and school climate differences in schools of different poverty levels.
Schien,(1992) has been identifies that how leaders do shape culture, embed and identity through primary mechanism such as role modeling, leader reaction to critical incidents, what leader pay attention to measure or control and observed way of allocating rewards, selection, promotion, and communication. Also, mentioned by (Lian et al, 2011) a great leader with positive influential personality will give a positive effect on the job satisfaction and the performances of the employees. Perhaps, it can be assumed, poor work culture at ward X, may shaped by an autocratic leadership over a long term, consequently affecting works performance and quality of care. (Manthey, 1991) mentioned that staff under bureaucratic had a poor performance and quality in performing a task.
Nothing beats the summer’s heat than being able to provide service for local organizations while engaging in great learning experiences that could expand the knowledge of a specific field. During the summer of 2017, I decided to volunteer and commit one hundred thirty hours to a local, nonprofit hospital that contributes excellent care to their patients and families. I knew that it would take a lot of personal commitment in order to achieve this goal especially since it was during the summer time, but I pushed myself to put my heart and mind into it until I successfully reach the goal. What really made me to join the volunteer team was the mission and the desire to make a different in patients’ lives. The story of how the hospital was founded
Strong leadership is vital to the success of any business, institution, school, team, or even church. Leaders that are considered effective encompass a leadership style and qualities that work to influence and motivate their followers. Joel Osteen, an evangelical pastor from Houston, Texas is truly one of the 21st centuries most captivating leaders. So much so, that he as selected by Barbara Walters as one of her 10 Most Fascinating People of 2016 (ABC News, 2006). His appeal is a phenomenon that is unmatched by any other current leaders in his profession. Over the past 15 years he has built a church, where he ministers one of the largest and most diverse congregations in America (Romano, 2005). Aside from his 45,000 attendees at his weekly services, his sermon is broadcasted in every television market in the United States and in over 100 other nations around the world (“About Joel,” n.d.). Joel Osteen is a prime example of a compelling leader who practices an effective leadership style that resonates with people on a personal level.
During the following year, I will be facing major changes in my life, and clearly what is expected from me is discipline and hard work so I will be able to achieve my goals. Based on my “Leadership Style Analysis Paper” I realized that sometimes I am extremely relaxed, carefree, and unable to stay focused on formal studies so I knew I had to change. In the future, I don’t want to be recognize by those “attributes”. I want to be known for being efficient, proactive, thorough, committed, trusting and determined and my desired identity is defined in three two-word phrases: 1. efficiently proactive, 2. thoroughly committed and 3. trustingly determined. At the end, my leadership brand statement end up as follow: “I want to be known for being efficiently
In reflecting on my one specific leadership style is difficult because my leadership style sometimes changes depending upon the particular employee I am leading, the situations I am faced with and what I am trying to accomplish. Being the second in command of a small police agency with only twenty-two sworn officers, as well as six non-sworn employees, they all have small differences from one another. These employee differences vary widely from generational, skill sets, needs, wants and personal motivations. One particular leadership style may work well with one employee I am trying to get to complete a specific task while that leadership style may cause another employee to resist or shut down. I believe one of the true characteristics of a strong leader is the ability to recognize and appreciate the differences between my subordinates and then lead them based upon the style that they will best respond to in order to succeed.
