The salmon story provides meaning, impart values and promote desired behavior (Johnson, 2016). By continually telling stories that illustrate the organization’s values, everyone will be clear about where the organization is going and how each can contribute to, and benefit by, achieving the goals (Clark 2013).

Jim Sinegal, co-founder, CEO, and president of Costco, uses the salmon story to convey Costco’s corporate vales and to illustrate how those values are being brought through the company (Clark.

The author suggests that leaders in educational programs should adopt the values of a Social Change Model in conjunction with digital leadership competencies. According to the article, the Social Change Model is a leadership development model composed of three levels, including individual, group, and community and is primarily used in higher education to train college students to become agents of social change. With this in mind, digital leadership requires reflection on online self-awareness and congruence, grappling with the controversy that comes with cyber civility and how to be a digital citizen prepared to inspire positive change in modern society. In addition, these leaders should be adept in digital literacy, which includes a concatenation of technical (online interfaces, applications), cognitive (critically thinking), and social/emotional (netiquette, safety) (Ahlquist, 2014). These competencies give leaders the leeway to quickly address rapid changes in technology by being creative and collaborative in hope to facilitate a better

My project team for 610 consisted of me and another person in an HR management role. We both work with line managers on a regular basis. We discussed how some managers seem to have more engaged staff than others: less turnover, fewer staff complaints, higher attendance, use of discretionary time for work, and a greater percentage of staff perceived by leadership as high potentials. We believe from our interactions with staff and managers, and from our observations, that the managers with more highly engaged and successful staff interacts with their employees on a more frequent basis. The engagement surveys from both our companies pointed out a lack of communication as a red flag. Although there are many factors that contribute to employee

Management Skills: I have strong management skills which I acquired when I was managing the cerebral palsy unit of a physiotherapy clinic. Later I served as a senior officer (lieutenant) and was responsible of nearly 300 elderly residents onsite and 150 soldiers within the Turkish Armed Forces Military Senior Center.

Furthermore, Novak promotes frequent personal development through constant self-assessment and self-examination. His leadership approach resembles a participative style where leaders stress a positive, team environment. Teamwork – moving from ME to WE.

Each leadership session we have could be cut in half. The individual could come in, share their nuggets of wisdom, answer a few questions, and then leave. Instead, each nugget of wisdom is placed within layers of life experiences. Roberts didn’t shy away from explaining the unconventional beginnings of his career. He explained how GPA, and other common metrics used for evaluating people can be misleading. “I was on an upward trend,” he argued back to the recruiter. This drive and confidence put him in the fast lane for his career. He initially sounded just as unconventional when he shared, “Disruption is the center, and you are going to disrupt or be disrupted.” This seemingly contrarian piece of advice has followed him his entire life, even into our lecture room in the book he was reading. He continued on to break many long held stereotypes of a leader. “I don’t feel like people work for me, I believe in the idea,” said Roberts. This leadership style embodies the “I to We” leadership

To implement a corporate advertising program at JetBlue would be beneficial in their public relations issues stemming from the customer service snafu they experienced while planes sat on a tarmac. However, in JetBlue’s situation a corporate advertising program would not be sufficient to overcome the customer service and communications issues stemming from the Valentine’s Day crisis. What JetBlue needed was an overhaul of their company culture which needed to start at the top. David Neeleman recognized this when he discovered how many employees lacked the necessary training to assist during a crisis. This lack of training, combined with the weather, is what ultimately caused all of the delays in getting people

Warrenton, Missouri is a town made up of about 8,000 mostly middle class Caucasians located in Warren County, MO. The county is home to two school districts, Warren County R-III School District and Wright City School District (Warrenton, 2014). This is a rural county and covers 431 square miles, much of which is forest and farmland (Warren County, 2014). Warren County R-III School District has a little over 3100 students enrolled and mirrors the city and county in that it is mostly Caucasian, with a small percentage of minorities including African Americans, Asians, Hispanics, and Native Americans in attendance (Missouri Comprehensive, 2014). Warrenton has been one of the fastest growing cities in Missouri as westward expansion out of St. Louis continues. However, in the last few years, many businesses have been leaving the area causing the growth to slow. The average education level in Warrenton is below the national average (Warrenton Missouri, 2014).
