Transformational leaders encourage group work, as they connect each follower’s identity and self to the project and collective identity of the corporation. They are role models for other staff and this inspires them and makes them

Leary isolated Chung from the beginning by having him solely manage the Taiwanese market. Instead, Leary should have involved other employees to work on a team with Chung to help develop new business with the Taiwanese market. By building team collaboration, Leary would have helped Chung assimilate into the organization’s culture and feel a part of the team.

Step 4 is to communicate the Vision. When everyone in the company understands and believes in what the company stands for, it creates a sense of unity and will reduce resistance to change. Communication is the key. Training will be implemented, but if there are any additional

As her company grew and she hired employees her leadership began displaying “supportive behavior” as well. She was a compassionate leader who would “show concern for the well being and needs of her employees”.2. When describing her leader ship style Wang stated “I try to share a tremendous amount with my staffers. I feel everything: the tribulations of business, the responsibility to people who depend on me to feed their families. Those things are always in my decision-making processes.”

“The images, metaphors, or frames that we hold, both of managing and of change, influence our ideas of what we think managing change is all about” (Palmer, Dunford, & Akin, 2009). As people we all see through our own eyes, we call see a different perspective and have a different reaction to what is coming next. As human beings we react differently to situations. Situations of change are transitions that some are able to adapt to quickly while others have a hard time. Being the leader of that change can be difficult and helping make a change does not come easily or effectively. Keep and Newcomer (2008)

I was one of the few employees that were willing to ride the waves and give the new changes time to develop and work themselves out. The leadership could have avoided falling into the same trap of employee turn over, if they had put the effort to provide the necessary support during the stages of change and refreezing. (Nahavandi, p. 284)

A useful model when looking at different approaches to change is Tannenbaum and Schmidt’s (1958, cited in Leatherbarrow et al, 2010, p414) Continuum of Leadership. This model explains a scale of various levels of delegated freedom and the subsequent effect on the employees. It details ‘telling’ where the manager decides and announces the decision, ‘selling’ where the manager decides and then sells the decision to the group, ‘consulting’ where the manager presents the problem and asks for suggestions before making a decision, and finally ‘joining’ where staff are involved in all stages of the decision making process. The model argues that ‘joining’ is the key to implementing change successfully as when employees are part of the change they are more likely to engage with it in a positive way. At E.ON the change

The police do not always have to have a warrant to conduct a search or arrest. If the police officer has reasonable suspicion that a crime is taking place they can arrest the suspect. However, they need substantial visual evidence to conduct a search or an arrest. As well if the suspect gives the officer consent they can search the suspect. Warrant is also not needed if the illegal possession is in plane sight, in this case the police officer can use the evidence in court and to arrest the suspect. A police officer does not always need probable cause to make an arrest. Based on Terry Vs Ohio the idea of stop and frisk was put place. In this case a off duty police officer noticed these men wanted to possibly hold up a store and were acting

Change is a double-edged sword (Fullan, 2001). Change is a word that might inspire or put fear into people. Leadership is challenging when it comes to dealing with change and how individuals react within the organization to the change. Marzano, McNulty, and Waters (2005) discuss two orders of change in their book School Leadership that Works; first and second. Fullan (2001) also adds to the discussion in his book Leading in a Culture of Change, with regard to understanding change. In Change Leadership, Keagan and Wagner (2006) discuss many factors of change and the systematic approach to change. Change affects people in different ways. Leaders need to be able to respond to the individuals throughout the change process.

One strength good leaders bring is to switch their leadership styles depending on the situation (Darling & Heller, 2012). This is like situational leadership and it is important in organizational change as well. Situational Leadership is a model designed by Dr. Paul Hershey in the 1960s which focuses on how managers can develop competencies to diagnose, adapt, communicate, and advance the situation they are in (The Center for Leadership Studies, n.d.). Hershey stresses the importance of relationship of the approach of the leader and the readiness of the followers for a specific task (The Center for Leadership Studies, n.d.). This is the same as a change manager. Although dominant forces are often the initial go-to for change managers, good change managers must assess the situation and apply the needed ideal change manager to the situation. Because of this, regardless of the dominant change manager, it behooves an effective organizational leader to understand the different images of change and how they can influence a change’s successful

In order to move forward and keep ahead, I believe an organization need change leaders who have capabilities to have their workforce go from change avoidance to change acceptance. “One of the most significant strengths of an effective leader is the ability to create a positive work climate where people are energized to do their best work, free of unnecessary distractions” (Cronkite, n.d.). During this part of the change process I feel the change leader would have better success if he would be tactful and harness the skills of others by working in a collaborative rather than hierarchical way. Leadership in an organization involves instilling motivation and enthusiasm in the employees. An effective leader knows how to manage and tackle difficult situations and people. Many reasons can cause a force of change in organizations but I feel it’s up to change leaders to manage these planned and unexpected changes. (Word count: 548)
