...Leadership And Change Management Leadership is "a sequence of multidirectional, reciprocal influence processes among many individuals at different levels, in different subunits and within executive teams" (Yukl 1994, p. 459). It is the way to acheive the gaol and motivate the people to do best. Leadership is the source of inspiration and it shows the action and way of acts to do. Leadership is considered as a product of complex social relationships (Dachler 1988). Current theoretical approaches on leadership research is concern about a greater extent role of leadership research which describe and give some understanding and recommends for effective leader behaviour and normative models. They focus more on explanations of leadership processes, describing leader behaviours, and present why behaviours occur in certain situations. If there are behavioural recommendations are available it means this is usually done more carefully and rarely without any philosophy that anything is possible. Current leadership theories are accepting the limits which have leader influence. "The best leaders are those most interested in surrounding themselves with assistants and associates smarter than they are. They are frank in admitting this and are willing to pay for such talents."(Amos Parrish). Leader is a "person who rules or guides or inspires others"(Andrew, 2007). A leader is a person having personality which others want to follow him. They may not always make right decisions but they...

Educational leaders are important to the accomplishment of the school and universities. Were they were the one who make decisions in enhancing and improving the organization. A lot of author said that, in educational organizations there is an assumption that leaders of educational change should be both leaders and managers. Guthrie and Reed (1991) observed the following about superintendents and principals that as managers they must ensure that fiscal and human resources are used effectively in attaining organizational goals. As leaders they must display the vision and skills necessary to create and maintain a suitable teaching and learning environment, to develop school goals, and to inspire others to achieve these goals. On the other hand, the change of management is also important in the context of the educational system. Change management aims to improve the performance of the schools, achieving quality education, and enhancing customer satisfaction. Hanson (2003) defines management that involves decisions about how things should be done; that is, the role is directed toward controlling and using resources to achieve organizational goals.

...Strategic Leadership and Change Initiative The study of leadership is a complex and often controversial subject. Essentially every angle of leadership has been studied and thus exists many theories and perspectives on this widely reviewed topic. The oldest and perhaps most widely studied viewpoint on leadership is from a leader-centric model, that is, leadership is a function only of the leader, his traits, personality, and competencies. With nearly a century of research to support this leader-centered view of leadership, it is foundational to the understanding of leadership. More recent studies of leadership however, have expanded our understanding to include leadership as a dynamic, fluid process involving leaders, followers, relationships, and situational contexts. Jon L. Pierce and John W. Newstrom suggest that underlying the various perspectives on leadership exists a commonly agreed upon idea: “[leadership] is a sociological phenomenon involving the intentional exercise of influence by one person over one or more other individuals, in an effort to guide activities toward the attainment of some mutual goal, a goal that requires interdependent action among members of the group” (Pierce & Newstrom, 2008). The mission of the typical organization is to achieve it’s goals and objectives through it’s leadership of people, processes and systems. How then, does the leadership of an organization effect it’s overall success? Through my research, it can be demonstrated...

...JOURNAL ON EDUCATIONAL MANAGEMENT JOURNAL ON EDUCATIONAL MANAGEMENT DR. ELSA E. GUMIRAN PROFESSOR DR. ELSA E. GUMIRAN PROFESSOR MELISSA F. PANAGA M.A ED. STUDENT MELISSA F. PANAGA M.A ED. STUDENT THEORIES OF EDUCATIONAL MANAGEMENT INTRODUCTION: Education is the key to change the traditional way of living and to open the gate of modern way of life. As a result, the management of educational organization is regarded as one of the most important management angles in the society. Educational management, according to researcher Tony Bush argues that education management has to be concerned with the purpose or aims of education. These objectives or aims serve to provide a crucial sense of direction in managing educational institutions. At the heart of education management is the process of deciding on the goals and objectives of the educational institution. In some schools, universities and colleges, it is the principal or the president, whichever is the title of the organization’s highest official that decides these goals and objectives. Often, this is done with the help of the principal or president’s senior colleagues and even the school board or its stakeholders, in the case of a private corporation. However, in many educational institutions, education management with respect to goal setting is a corporate activity done by formal bodies or informal groups or individuals. The other...

...Strategic Leadership In An Organizational Change Process Management Essay 10/12/15 13:51 Strategic Leadership In An Organizational Change Process Management Essay The following essay will critically discuss the role of strategic leadership in an organizational change process using relevant theories and example. The objective of this paper is to come up with a solution of the many challenges that occur in the process of organizational change through implementing proper leadership. Organizational change refers to a situation whereby an organization adopts a new strategy in the way it carries out its activities and management for better or removes a major section or an operational department (McNamara, 2011). Strategic leadership on the other hand refers to the implementation of strategies in the management of workers in any organization. Organizations always go through change, at times gradual and other times drastic throughout their normal life cycle whereby organizational leaders may create change driving forces within the organization. For example, radical changes may take place in an organization leading to structural transformation through which organizations attempt to revitalize business orientations through changing the reporting structure. Other changes, for instance, merger and acquisition, transforming the top management of an organization, reorganization and restructuring of the company may affect the organization culture and processes. Most of these...

...With the change of society, an increasing number of women have engaged in work and their roles as leaders in work have also caused people’s attention. The purpose of this bibliography is to find the changes of gender in leadership. With the development of society, the number of female leaders is increasing in recent years (Michelle and Elaine, 2008). According to (Stewart, 2009), there are more difficulties facing female leaders than male leaders, which makes it difficult to involve more females in the leading positions. A research (Hilary, 2009) indicated that although the number of female leaders is increasing, the ratio of female leaders in leadership is not balanced and more females should be involved in management positions. According to Kaycee (2010), the changes of gender in leadership have been in the process, which can be proved by the changes of people’s attitudes to female leaders.

...: Leadership and Management Leadership and Management 1. Introduction The origins of management can be traced back to the age of mediaeval mercantilism or even earlier, yet the nature of business management as an applied science only really developed in the last century. In the modern context, business management is limited to one component of the economic system, namely the individual organization, whether it be a private business, a government corporation or, to a lesser extent, a non-profit seeking organization. Contemporary society consists of diverse organizations, including business enterprises, schools, hospitals, sport clubs, churches and political parties that contribute to the functioning of the community. The profitable performance of these organizations is dependent on attaining pre-designed objectives and to make its services as productive and efficient as possible. However, organizations do not achieve their objectives automatically. In addition to the human resources, physical resources and special know-how in a business organization, there is still one element that is necessary to direct all these resources and activities effectively towards the goals of the enterprise. That indispensable element is management and without it, no purposeful action is possible. The question that is raised within this context of traditional and contemporary views of leadership is how does this aspect coincide and interact with the practical ideals...

...Studies 6 Why Do Change Management Strategies Fail? ---Illustrations with case studies Xiongwei SONG∗ Department of Politics, University of Sheffield ABSTRACT: Change management is crucial to the survival and development of organizations, the more effectively you deal with change, the more likely you are to thrive. However there are a large number of failures of change management. Organizational change itself is a considerably complex activity; any tiny mistake in change management could lead to the failure of organizational change. Consequently this paper is impossible to encompass all factors that could result in the failure of change management. This paper attempts to explain why change management strategies fail from four perspectives (leadership, culture, people issues and quick response) that are major factors to determine whether change management is successful or not. INTRODUCTION Change for organizations both large and small, whether in the private, public or voluntary sectors has been inevitable for the past decades or so. Such trends of organizational change are increasing in frequency, pace, complexity and turbulence under current situation, and there appears to be no sign of abatement. The concrete purposes of change management for different organizations are probably not the same, but the ethos of change management is the same, that is, making the organizations more effective, efficient, and responsive to the turbulent environment changes. Through the comparison...

...Role of Leadership and Management in Organizational Change There are many roles of leadership and management within organizational change; however it is required of a leader to acquire certain skills and knowledge. A leader with the right skills, knowledge and characteristics can persuade and influence change within an organization. They can influence other employees the change that is taking place within the company and give guidance through the change that is taking place. These skills that are required of a leader must be developed and learned over time. I will be analyzing two leadership strategies that have been used to successfully motivate organizational change during the past 10 years and I will be analyzing the effectiveness of each strategy and relate how effective management strategy alone may well be challenged to achieve desired change. One type of leadership is participative that is sometimes called Democratic leadership this type of leadership focus on the participation of other; I believe participative leadership is important because it involves everyone in the team. When the team is involved it demonstrations, the usefulness of others viewpoints while creating leadership opportunities; this allows others to be a part of the decision-making process. Participative leadership can be effective if there is time to allow other in the team to brainstorm and come up with ideas to help the decision-making process. Also, participative leadership can be effective if the...
