GREAT MAN THEORY 1840s Thomas Carlyle Highly influential, individual with personal charisma, intelligence, and wisdom

Leaders are born and not made & possess certain traits w/c are inherited *Characteristics Instrumental and supportive Charismatic Theory (PPT) *based on personal qualities 1. Charm 2. personal power 3. persuasiveness 4. self-confidence 5. extraordinary ideas 6. strong convictions Examples: 1. Mahatma Ghandi 2. Alexander the great 3. Cory Aquino SITUATIONAL THEORY Kenneth Blanchard and Paul Hersey First introduced as Life cycle theory of Leadership Mid 1970s Fundamental underpinning of this theory: NO SINGLE BEST STYLE OF LEADERSHIP 2 fundamental concepts: 1. Leadership style 2. Individual maturity (4 Leadership styles S1-S4) Telling or Directing one way communication decisions are made by leader Selling/Coaching two-way communication; leaders made the decision but seeks suggestions to the members Participating/ Supporting leader takes part on making decisions but the control in the follower Delegating the follower decides when & how the leader will be involved

Assumptions: Charm & grace to create followers Self-belief is the fundamental need of leaders follows who they admire Style: gather followers through dint of personality & charm, rather than any form of external power or authority

Traits: 1. Passion 2. Extraordinary 3. Persistence 4. Determination 5. Optimism ---------------------------------------------------------------------------TRAIT THEORY 1930s Stogdill Top 5 Qualities 1. Honest 2. Inspiring 3. Forward looking 4. competent 5. Intelligent *Strengths and advantages Natural... *Limitations a leader possess or a person man to be leader It can be a leader or experienced ---------------------------------------------------------------------------(Individual maturity level) The right leadership style will depend on the person or group being led- the follower. The Hersey-Blanchard Situational Leadership theory identified four levels of maturity M1 through M4 M1-lack the specific skills required for the job in hand, unable to or unwilling to take the responsibility for the job or task M2-unable to take on responsibility; however, they are willing to do the task M3-experienced and able to do the task but lack the confidence to take on responsibility M4-experienced at the task and comfortable with their ability to do it well. They are able and willing to not only do task, but take the responsibility for the task as well.

Developing people and self-motivation

A good leader develops, the competence and


commitment of their people so theyre self-motivation rather than dependent on the others for direction and guidance.

4 important ideas of contingency theory

According to Herseys The situational back. The


leaders high, realistic expectation causes high performance of followers: The leaders low expectations lead low performance of the followers

According to Kenneth Blanchard, Four combinations of


competence and commitment make up what call development level. D1- low competence and high commitment D2- low competence and low competence D3-High competence and low/ variable commitment D4-high competence and high commitment In order to make an effective cycle, a teacher needs to motivate followers properly. SKILLS: 1.Diagnosing 2.Adaptive 3.Communicative Variable that effectiveness of leadership style are factors: 1.Personality of the leader 2.Performance requirements of both leaders and followers 3.Attitudes, needs and expectations of the leaders and the followers 4.The degree of interpersonal contact 5.Time pressure 6.Organizational structure 7.Nature of the organization 8.State of the organizations development 9.Influence of leader outside the group *The type of leader depends on the situation* ---------------------------------------------------------------------------CONTINGENCE/CONTINGENCY THEORY Fred Fiedler leadership style is effective and ineffective depends on the situation Leaders ability to lead is contingent upon various situational factors including the leaders preferred style, the capabilities and behaviors of followers and also various other situational factors. Contingency thoughts are a class of behavioral theory that contend that there is no one best way leading and that a leadership style that is effective in some situations may not be successful in others. An effect of this is that leaders who are very effective at one place and time may become unsuccessful other who transplant to another situation or when the factors around them change.

from the process of becoming integrated human.

Oneness- the integration of our intent, thoughts, feelings and actions in alignment with a higher intent that leads to a state of flow psychologically, and a state of grace spiritually. Leaders need to be aware of.

Four principles of Scientific Management: Replace working by rule of thumb, or simple habit and common sense, but instead use the scientific method in to study work and determine the most efficient way to perform specific tasks. Rather than simply assign workers to just any job, match workers to their jobs based on capability and motivation, and train them to work at maximum efficiency Monitor workers performance, and provide instructions and supervision to ensure that theyre using the most efficient ways of working Allocate the work between managers spend their time planning and training, allowing the workers to perform their tasks effectively. -Propose higher wages to higher productive workers Designed the quickest and best method of becoming -He conclude that productivity will increase through careful systematic design of workplace condition and proper training of workers

All managers, regardless of the type of organization or their level in the organization, have essentially the same tasks: planning, organizing, issuing orders, coordinating and controlling. -He believed in the division of work and argued that specialization increases efficiency. Fayol recommended centralization through the use of a scalar chain or levels of authority and unity of command and direction so that each employee receives orders from only one superior. - He believed that although individual interests should be allowed to think through and implement plans and should be adequately remunerated for their services. - Fayol encouraged development of group harmony through equal treatment and stability of tenure of personnel. A firm believer in order, he advocated a place for everything and everything in its place. He also urged that management be taught in the colleges. Management Principles developed by Henri Fayol:

1. 2. 3. 4.

Fundamental principle of Scientific Management: The development of true science of management e.g. The best method for performing task will be determined The scientific selection of the worker so that each worker will be given responsibility for the task that he will be distinguished Scientific education & development of worker The intimate friendly relation between management and labor ---------------------------------------------------------------------------GILBRETH LEADERSHIP MODEL Frank Bunker Gilbreth (July 7, 1868-June 14, 1924) Lillian Evelyn Maller (may 24,1876-January 7,1972) The management theory of Frank & Lillian Gilbreth can be summed up by the following: Reduce the number of motion in a task to increase efficiency Focus on the incremental study of motions & time to understand an entire task The goal of increased efficiency is both increased profit and greater worker satisfaction Therbligs combination of 18 basic motions *Grasp *Transport *Loaded *Hold emphasizes the benefits job specification and establishment of work standards and the effects of wage plans and fatigue on workers They accomplish more in a shorter time

1. 2. 3.

1. DIVISION OF WORK: Work should be divided


among individuals and groups to ensure that effort and attention are focused on special portions of the task. Fayol presented work specialization as the best way to use the human resources of the organization.

2. AUTHORITY: The concepts of Authority and


responsibility are closely related. Authority was defined by Fayol as the right to give orders and

the power to exact obedience. Responsibility involves being accountable, and is therefore naturally associated with authority. Whoever assumes authority also assumes responsibility.

(1864-1920) -a German sociologist -father of organization theory -he conceptualized a structure of authority that would facilitate the accomplishment of the organizational objectives

3. DISCIPLINE: A successful organization requires


the common effort of workers. Penalties should be applied judiciously to encourage this common effort.

4. UNITY OF COMMAND: Workers should receive


orders from only one manager.

5. UNITY OF DIRECTION: The entire organization


should be moving towards a common objective in a common direction. 3 Bases of authority: >Traditional authority > Charisma > Rational legal authority -Weber recognized that if subordinates do not believe a person is qualified for the position, they may not accept that persons authority -He suggested the avoidance of traditional and charismatic leadership through systemic selection of personnel -administrator are appointed, not elected all personnel are selected for competence; -the division of labor -authority and responsibility is clearly defined -positions are organized into hierarchy ---------------------------------------------------------------------------JAMES MOONEY THEORY >Coauthored the 1931 classics on the nature and development of organization entitled ONWARD INDUSTRY >Alan C. Railey (1884-1957) They stated that organizations should be studied from two view points: (1) The Employees who create and utilize the process of organization; and (2) the objective of the process. Mooney believed management to be the technique of directing people and organization the technique of relating functions. Organization is managements responsibility. Mooney enumerated the four universal principles of organization as follows: A. The Co-ordination Principle; Co-ordination was considered the first principle and it contained the other two. It involved individuals performing activities together to obtain a common goal. B. The Functional Principle The functional principle was defined as the differentiation between various kinds of duty. C. The Scalar Principle

6. SUBORDINATION OF INDIVIDUAL INTERESTS


TO THE GENERAL INTERESTS: The interests of one person should not take priority over the interests of the organization as a whole.

7. REMUNERATION: Many variables, such as cost of


living, supply of qualified personnel, general business conditions, and success of the business, should be considered in determining a workers rate of pay.

8. CENTRALIZATION: Fayol defined centralization as


lowering the importance of the subordinate role. Decentralization is increasing the importance. The degree to which centralization or decentralization should be adopted depends on the specific organization in which the manager is working.

9. SCALAR CHAIN: Managers in hierarchies are part


of a chain like authority scale. Each manager, from the first line supervisor to the president, possess certain amounts of authority. The President possesses the most authority; the first line supervisor the least. Lower level managers should always keep upper level managers informed of their work activities. The existence of a scalar chain and adherence to it are necessary if the organization is to be successful.

10. ORDER: For the sake of efficiency and


coordination, all materials and people related to a specific kind of work should be treated as equally as possible.

11. EQUITY: All employees should be treated as


equally as possible.

12. STABILITY OF TENURE OF PERSONNEL:


Retaining productive employees should always be a high priority of management. Recruitment and Selection Costs, as well as increased product-reject rates are usually associated with hiring new workers.

13. INITIATIVE: Management should take steps to


encourage worker initiative, which is defined as new or additional work activity undertaken through self direction.

14. ESPIRIT DE CORPS (Spirit of cooperation):


Management should encourage harmony and general good feelings among employees. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------WEBER THEORY

It was described as the rating of the duties involved for different members of the organization according to the degrees of authority and corresponding responsibility D. Authority into a hierarchy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- URWICK THEORY -Bureaucratic Theory -focused on organization -Was founded by Lyndall Fownes Urwick, an influential business management consultant and thinker in United Kingdom. -Urwick mainly focuses on the ideas of scientific management with the ideas of classical organization theory -Urwick 10 Principles of Organization by Lyndall Urwick. According to Urwick (Notes on the Theory of Organization, 1952), an organization is built on ten principles: 1. The principle of the objective - Every organization and every part of the organization must be an expression of the purpose of the undertaking concern. 2. The principle of specialization - The activities of every member of any organized group should be confined, as far as possible, to the performance of a single function. 3. The principle of co-ordination - The purpose of organizing where as distinguished from the purpose of the undertaking, is to facilitate co-ordination: unity of effort. 4. The principle of authority - In every organized group the supreme authority must rest somewhere. There should be a clear line of authority to every individual in the group 5. The principle of responsibility - The responsibility of the superior for the acts of the subordinate is absolute. 6. The principle of definition - The content of each position, both the duties involved, the authority and responsibility contemplated and the relationships with other positions should be clearly defined in writing and published to all concerned. 7. The principle of correspondence - In every position, the responsibility and the authority should correspond. 8. The principle of span of control - No person should supervise more than five, or at most, six direct subordinates whose work interlocks. 9. The principle of balance - It is essential that the various units of an organization should be kept in balance. 10. The principle of continuity - Re-organization is a continuous process: in every undertaking specific provision should be made for it." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- BARNARD THEORY -Chester Irving Barnard (18861961) -was the president of the new Jersey Bell Telephone Company, -he helped advance thinking about organizations when he published The Functions of the Executive in 1938 - an influential 20th century management book. -He focused on creating a new theory around organizational structures, focusing on the organization as communication system -He stress the importance of cooperation between management and labor -Formal channels of communication must be known

-Authority depends on acceptance by the followers -Small units are the building blocks for complex organization Functions of the executives: -Defining objectives -Acquiring resources -Coordinating activities Barnards key concepts: -Importance of an Individual's behaviors -Compliance -Communication -Focused on importance of communication in informal organization. The communication system is grounded in seven essential rules:

The channels of communication should be definite; Everyone should know of the channels of communication; Everyone should have access to the formal channels of communication; Lines of communication should be as short and as direct as possible; Competence of persons serving as communication centers should be adequate; The line of communication should not be interrupted when the organization is functioning; Every communication should be authenticated.

Barnard formulated two interesting theories: >one of authority; and >the other of incentives. As for incentives, he proposed two ways of convincing subordinates to cooperate: >tangible incentives >persuasion. He gives great importance to persuasion, much more than to economic incentives He described four general and four specific incentives. The specific incentives were:

Money and other material inducements; Personal non-material opportunities for distinction; Desirable physical conditions of work;

Ideal benefactions, such as pride of workmanship etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------HAWTHORNE STUDIES -is a psychological phenomenon that produces an improvement in human behavior or performance as a result of increased attention

-Western Electric Chicago Hawthorne Plant, Cicero, Illinois -Elton Mayo 1927-1932 -sociologist Fritz Rothlesberger -Experimental study -Relation between physical environment and productivity of workers -Principle of Human Motivation Test I: Effect on Illumination Test II: Relay Assembly *no connection between illumination and level of productivity

>Authoritarian leadership is best applied to situations where there is little time for group decision-making or where the leader is the most knowledgeable member of the group. 2. Participative Leadership (Democratic) >Lewins study found that participative leadership, also known as democratic leadership, is generally the most effective leadership style. >Democratic leaders offer guidance to group members but seek input from other group members. >In Lewins study, children in this group were less productive than the members of the authoritarian group, but their contributions were of a much higher quality. >Participative leaders encourage group members to participate, but retain the final say 3. Delegative (Laissez- Faire) Leadership >Researchers found that children under delegative leadership were the least productive of all three groups.

Test II:

Changing a variable usually increased productivity, even if the variable was just a change back to the original condition. Number and length of work breaks Refreshments Length of workdays and workweeks Temperature Humidity The aptitudes of individuals are imperfect predictors of job performance. Informal Organization affects productivity. Work-Group norms affect productivity. The workplace is a social system. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- AUTOCRATIC-DEMOCRATIC-LAISSEZ FAIRE LEADERSHIP >In 1939, a group of researchers led by psychologist Kurt Lewin set out to identify different styles of leadership. A study in 1938 known as Leadership and Group Life was conducted under the leadership of Kurt Lewin and included Ron Leppit and Robert White. >This early study was very influential and established three major leadership styles. >In the study, groups of schoolchildren were assigned to one of three groups with an authoritarian, democratic or laissez-fair leader. The children were then led in an arts and crafts project. Researchers then observed the behavior of children in response to the different styles of leadership. Three Leadership Styles: 1. Authoritarian: also known as autocratic leaders >Provide clear expectations for what needs to be done, when it should be done, and how it should be done. >Clear division between the leader and the followers. >Authoritarian leaders make decisions independently with little or no input from the rest of the group. >Abuse of this style is usually viewed as controlling, bossy, and dictatorial.

>The children in this group also made more demands on the leader, showed little cooperation and were unable to work independently. >Delegative leaders offer little or no guidance to group members and leave decision-making up to group members. >While this style can be effective in situations where group members are highly qualified in an area of expertise, it often leads to poorly defined roles and a lack of motivation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- MORENO ---------------------------------------------------------------------------MASLOW HIERARCHY OF NEEDS -Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology, proposed by Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper A Theory of Human Motivation. Maslow subsequently extended the idea to include his observations of humans' innate curiosity. His theories parallel many other theories of human developmental psychology, all of which focus on describing the stages of growth in humans. -Maslow studied what he called exemplary people such as Albert Einstein, Jane Addams, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Frederick Douglass rather than mentally ill or neurotic people, writing that "the study of crippled, stunted, immature, and unhealthy specimens can yield only a cripple psychology and a cripple philosophy. Maslow studied the healthiest 1% of the college student population. Maslow's theory was fully expressed in his 1954 book Motivation and Personality. -Maslow's hierarchy of needs is often portrayed in the shape of a pyramid, with the largest and most fundamental levels of needs at the bottom, and the need for self-actualization at the top. The most fundamental and basic four layers of the pyramid contain what Maslow called "deficiency needs" or "d-needs": >esteem >friendship and love >security; and >physical needs

-With the exception of the most fundamental (physiological) needs, if these "deficiency needs" are not met, -the body gives no physical indication but the individual feels anxious and tense. -Maslow's theory suggests that the most basic level of needs must be met before the individual will strongly desire (or focus motivation upon) the secondary or higher level needs. -Maslow also coined the term Metamotivation to describe the motivation of people who go beyond the scope of the basic needs and strive for constant betterment. Metamotivated people are driven by B-needs (Being Needs), instead of deficiency needs (D-Needs).

After physiological and safety needs are fulfilled, the third layer of human needs are social and involve feelings of belongingness. The need is especially strong in childhood and can over-ride the need for safety as witnessed in children who cling to abusive parents which is sometimes called Stockholm syndrome. The absence of this aspect of Maslow's hierarchy - due to hospitalism, neglect, shunning,ostracism etc - can impact individual's ability to form and maintain emotionally significant relationships in general, such as: >Friendship >Intimacy >Family Humans need to feel a sense of belonging and acceptance, whether it comes from a large social group, such as clubs, office culture, religious groups, professional organizations, sports teams, gangs, or small social connections (family members, intimate partners, mentors, close colleagues, confidants). They need to love and be loved (sexually and non-sexually) by others. In the absence of these elements, many people become susceptible to loneliness, social anxiety, and clinical depression. This need for belonging can often overcome the physiological and security needs, depending on the strength of the peer pressure; an anorexic, for example, may ignore the need to eat and the security of health for a feeling of control and belonging.

Physiological needs For the most part, physiological needs are obvious they are the literal requirements for human survival. If these requirements are not met, the human body simply cannot continue to function. Air, water, and food are metabolic requirements for survival in all animals, including humans. Clothing and shelter provide necessary protection from the elements. The intensity of the human sexual instinct is shaped more by sexual competition than maintaining a birth rate adequate to survival of the species. Safety needs With their physical needs relatively satisfied, the individual's safety needs take precedence and dominate behavior. In the absence of physical safety -- due to terrorist attack, war, natural disaster, or, in cases of family violence, childhood abuse, etc -- people (re-)experience post-traumatic stress disorder and transgenerational trauma transfer. In the absence of economic safety -- due to economic crisis and lack of work opportunities - these safety needs manifest themselves in such things as a preference for job security, grievance procedures for protecting the individual from unilateral authority, savings accounts, insurance policies, reasonable disability accommodations, and the like. Safety and Security needs include: >Personal security >Financial security >Health and well-being >Safety net against accidents/illness and their adverse impacts Love and belonging

Esteem -All humans have a need to be respected and to have self-esteem and self-respect. -Esteem presents the normal human desire to be accepted and valued by others. -People need to engage themselves to gain recognition and have an activity or activities that give the person a sense of contribution, to feel self-valued, be it in a profession or hobby. -Imbalances at this level can result in low self-esteem or an inferiority complex. -People with low self-esteem need respect from others. -Note, however, that many people with low self-esteem will not be able to improve their view of themselves simply by receiving fame, respect, and glory externally, but must first accept themselves internally. -Psychological imbalances such as depression can also prevent one from obtaining self-esteem on both levels. Maslow noted two versions of esteem needs, a lower one and a higher one. >The lower one is the need for the respect of others, the need for status, recognition, fame, prestige, and attention. >The higher one is the need for self-respect, the need for strength, competence, mastery, self-confidence, independence and freedom. * Deprivation of these needs can lead to an inferiority complex, weakness and helplessness. Self-actualization - What a man can be, he must be. This forms the basis of the perceived need for self-actualization.

-This level of need pertains to what a person's full potential is and realizing that potential. Maslow describes this desire as the desire to become more and more what one is, to become everything that one is capable of becoming. -This is a broad definition of the need for selfactualization, but when applied to individuals the need is specific. For example one individual may have the strong desire to become an ideal parent, in another it may be expressed athletically, and in another it may be expressed in painting, pictures, or inventions. As mentioned before, in order to reach a clear understanding of this level of need one must first not only achieve the previous needs, physiological, safety, love, and esteem, but master these needs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------HIERZBERG ---------------------------------------------------------------------------MCGREGOR (X & Y) THEORY -Douglas McGregor

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- OUCHI (Z) THEORY -DR. WILLIAM OUCHI -Theory Z

DEVELOPMENT OF THEORY Z -McGregor, a psychologist and college president, identified a negative set of assumptions about human nature, which he called Theory X. He asserted that these assumptions limited the potential for growth of many employees. -McGregor presented an alternative set of assumptions that he called Theory Y and were more positive about human nature as it relates to employees. -1970s and 1980s, many United States industries lost market share to international competitors, particularly Japanese companies.

"Style" refers to the management style or the leadership style that is followed by the superiors in an organization to carry out different activities in the organization. Style is basically the way the management behaves and collectively spends its time to achieve organizational goals. There are a lot of different management and leadership styles in use but the most popular ones are:

-Concerns about the competitiveness of U. S. companies led some to examine Japanese management practices for clues to the success enjoyed by many of their industries. -It was in this atmosphere that THEORY Z was introduced into the management lexicon. Theory z as an approach to management

System In an organization, "systems" refer to the procedures and processes such as information systems, manufacturing processes, budgeting and control processes. When taking into consideration the systems of any organization, things such as the customization of the systems, tailoring those systems to individual managers, the setting up of objectives for those systems, economizing those systems, the flexibility of the systems and blending those systems into the organizational environment, come into any managers mind. Staff The term "Staff" refers to the people in the organization and their socialization into the organizational culture. This includes Staffing that is the filling, and keeping filled, positions in the organizational structure through identifying work-force requirements, recruiting, selecting, placing, promoting, appraising, planning the careers, compensating, and training or otherwise developing both candidates and current job holders to accomplish their tasks effectively and efficiently. Plus this also implies towards the chosen culture of the organization, and the selection of employees according to that particular organizational culture and the fact that whether the employees have blended into and accepted the culture or not. Structure "Structure" is the organizational structure or the hierarchy of the organization that comprises of the authority and responsibility relationships in the firm. This function of the framework is concerned with the direction of delegation of authority, the organizational structures, whether Flat or Tall and the degree of Centralization or Decentralization. Structure is closely related to Staff as the size of the staff greatly impacts the type of structure that the organization has. It is also dependent upon the Style of management preferred by the superiors in the organization, as it is the preference of the top management that really matters in the real world on the type of organizational structure being applied. Strategy The systematic actions and the allocation of resources to achieve the organizational objectives and aims is referred to as "Strategy". There are many predefined strategies but the management can effectively create some other strategy through the use of creative techniques like brainstorming or professional approach such as the Delphi Technique. Shared Vision "Shared vision" or Super ordinate goals are the values held and shared by the members of an organization. By using the term Shared Values, the 7S theorists emphasize that goal statements are very important in determining the destiny of the organization; they also point out that the organization members must share values equally. Therefore, special attention is given to personal and organizational values in order to increase organizational effectiveness. Skills These are the distinctive capabilities of an organization. In traditional management literature the term "skills" refers to the personal skills (e.g. technical, human, conceptual) while in the 7S framework "skills" not only means this but it also points towards the capabilities of the organization as a whole. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------ARGYRIS -Chris argyris -Born July 16, 1923 in New Jersey, USA. -He is an American business theorist, Professor Emeritus at Harvard Business School -And a Thought Leader at Monitor Group. -He is commonly known for seminal work in the area of "Learning Organizations" -Focusing his research on the coexistence of personal and organizational needs, found that individuals give priority to meeting their own needs. -Argyris recommends that leaders help workers achieve self-actualization and maintains ones personality to grow from passivity and dependence to activity and independence. -Incongruency between the mature personality and management based on classic principles makes workers subordinate, dependent, and passive, causing them psychological failure and job dissatisfaction. Theory of Action -Argyris concept of Action Science begins with the study of how human beings design their actions in difficult situation. -Involves the way they plan, implement and review their actions. -It regard to how to act in situations; Espoused Theory - the words we use to convey what we, do or what we would like others to think we do. Single and Double Loop Learning -Learning involves in detection and correction of error. -Where something goes wrong, it is suggested, an initial port of call for many people is to look for another strategy that will address and work. -In other words, given or chosen goals, values, plans and rules are operationalized rather than questioned. According to Argyris, this is Single-Loop Learning. -An alternative response is to question to governing variables themselves, to subject them to critical scrutiny. This they describe as Double-Loop Theory. Organizational Learning -It suggest that each member of an organization constructs his or her own representation or image of the theory-in-use of the whole ---------------------------------------------------------------------------LIKERTS MANAGEMENT THEORY -RENSIS LIKERT( August 5 ,1903 - September 3, 1981) -was an American educator and organizational psychologist best known for his research on management styles. He developed the Likert Scale and the linking pin model. -His theory of management is based on his work at the University of Michigans Institute for Social Research -Has identified three types of variables in organization: 1.Causal include leadership behavior, organizational structure, policies and controls. 2.Intervening

are perceptions, attitudes ,and motivations. 3.End result are measures of profits, costs, and productivity. Four types of management systems: 1.Exploitative-authoritative management system >In this type of management system the job of employees/subordinates is to abide by the decisions made by managers and others with a higher status in the organization. The subordinates do not participate in the decision making. The organization's sole concern is completion of work. Fear and threats may be used to insure completion. No teamwork is involved. 2.Benevolent-authoritative management system >Just as in an exploitive authoritative system, decisions are made at the top of the organization. However, employees are motivated through rewards rather than fear and threats. Information may flow from subordinates to managers, but it is restricted to what management want to hear. 3.Consultative management system >In this type of management system, subordinates are motivated by rewards and a degree of involvement in the decision-making process. Management will constructively use subordinates' ideas and opinions. However, involvement is incomplete, and major decisions are still made by senior management. More information flows from subordinates to management, although it is incomplete and euphemistic. 4.Participative management system >Management have complete confidence in their subordinates/employees. Communication is free, and subordinates are fully involved in decision making. Subordinates comfortably express opinions and engage in teamwork. Teams are linked together by common members Likert-type scale -is a psychometric scale commonly used in questionnaires , and is the most widely used scale in survey research. Typical five-level of Likert item: Strongly disagree Disagree Neither agree nor disagree Agree Strongly agree Linking pin model >is an idea developed by Rensis Likert. It presents an organization as a number of overlapping work units in which a member of a unit is the leader of another unit.These individuals are the linking pins within the organization and so they become the focus of leadership development activities. Central aspect of his theory: >Employee-centered supervision is more productive than job-centered supervision. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1 2 3 4 5 BLAKE & MOUTON -Robert Blake and Jane Mouton (1930-1987) maintain that there are two critical dimensions of leadership: (1) Concern for people : The leader cares little about people and operates in fear of something going wrong. This person's focus is on achieving results and productivity. (2) Concern for production : This leader cares little about productivity and operates wholly from a desire to be loved and approved of.

The Five Styles Explained

-Here's a snapshot of the five different leadership styles resulting from the grid:

'Impoverished' The leader exerts (and expects) minimal effort and has little concern for either staff satisfaction or work targets. This is a leader who is going through the motions is indifferent, non-committal, resigned and apathetic. S/he is doing just enough to keep their job 'Country Club' The leader is attentive to his/her people's needs and has developed satisfying relationships and work culture - but at the expense of achieving results. The leader is defined as agreeable, eager to help, nonconfrontational, comforting and uncontroversial. 'Middle of the Road' (Politician) This leader is a compromiser who wants to maintain the status quo and avoid any problems. Is aware of and wants a focus on productivity but not at the expense of the morale of his/her team. 'Authoritarian' The leader concentrates almost exclusively on achieving results. People are viewed as a commodity to be used to get the job done. Communication is de-emphasized and conflict is resolved by suppressing it. Leadership is controlling, demanding and over-powering. 'Team' The leader achieves high work performance through 'leading' his/her people to become dedicated to the organizational goals. There is a high degree of participation and teamwork, which satisfies the basic need of people to be involved and committed to their work. The leader may be characterized as open-minded, flexible and one who inspires involvement. Blake Mouton Leadership Grid

FIEDLERS LEAST PREFERRED CO-WORKER (LPC) THEORY Resumptions: Leaders prioritize between task focus and people focus 3 Key factors that drive effective: 1.relationships 2. power 3. task structure Description: leaders will think of a person with which they worked that they would like to least work with again a high LPC leader generally scores the other person as positive and a low LPC leaders scores them as negative High LPC leaders have close and positive relationship & get in a supportive way, prioritizing relationship before the task LOW LPC LEADERS PUT THE TASK FIRST Leader member realtion: good Task structure: structured Leaders pposition power: strong Most effective leader: Low LPC

M3 - They are experienced and able to do the task but lack the confidence to take on responsibility. M4 - They are experienced at the task, and comfortable with their own ability to do it well. They able and willing to not only do the task, but to take responsibility for the task

Development Level of the Follower D4 High Competence, High Commitment Experienced at the job, and comfortable with their own ability to do it well. May even be more skilled than the leader. D3 High Competence, Variable Commitment Experienced and capable, but may lack the confidence to go it alone, or the motivation to do it well / quickly. D2 Some Competence, Low Commitment May have some relevant skills, but wont be able to do the job without help. The task or the situation may be new to them. D1 Low Competence, High Commitment Generally lacking the specific skills required for the job in hand, but has the confidence and / or motivation to tackle it. Variables that affects the Leadership Styles:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- HERSEY & BLANCHARD (SITUATIONAL) -Kenneth Blanchard & Paul Hershey >First named as Life Cycle Theory of Leadership >1970- Renamed as Situational-Leadership Theory Leadership styles

>Personality of the leader

>Performance requirements of the leader and the followers

>Attitudes, Needs and Expectation of the leader and the followers

S1: Telling - is characterized by one-way communication in which the leader defines the roles of the individual or group and provides the what, how, when, and where to do the task

>Degree of interpersonal contact

S2: Selling - while the leader is still providing the direction, he or she is now using two-way communication and providing the socioemotional support that will allow the individual or group being influenced to buy into the process. S3: Participating - this is now shared decision making about aspects of how the task is accomplished and the leader is providing less task behaviors while maintaining high relationship behavior.

>Time pressure

>Organizational Structure

S4: Delegating - the leaders is still involved in decisions; however, the process and responsibility has been passed to the individual or group. The leader stays involved to monitor progress. Of these, no one style is considered optimal for all leaders to use all the time. Effective leaders need to be flexible, and must adapt themselves according to the situation. Maturity Levels M1 - They generally lack the specific skills required for the job in hand and are unable and unwilling to do or to take responsibility for this job or task. M2 - They are still unable to take on responsibility for the task being done; however, they are willing to work at the task.

>Nature of the organization

>State of Organizational development

>Influence of leader outside the group ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- VROOM & YETTON NORMATIVE MODEL -They address decision making as a social process and emphasize how managers do rather than should behave in their normative model. Alternative decision processes:

A= autocratic

C= consultative

G= group

I= First variant

II= Second variant

4. The acceptance rule if the acceptance of the decision by subordinates is critical to effective implementation and if it is not certain that an autocratic decision made by the leader would receive the acceptance, AI and AII are eliminated. 5. The conflict rule if the acceptance of the decision is critical, and an autocratic decision is not certain to be accepted and subordinates are likely to be in conflict or disagreement over the appropriate solution, AI, AII, CI and CII are eliminated from the feasible set. 6. The fairness rule if the quality of the decision is unimportant and if the acceptance is critical and not certain to result from an autocratic decision, AI, AII, CI and CII are eliminated. 7. The acceptance priority rule if the acceptance is critical and not ensured by an autocratic decision and if subordinates can be trusted, AI, AII, CI and CII are eliminated. 3 classes of outcomes that influence the ultimate effectiveness of decisions: 1.the quality of the decision 2.acceptance of the decision by the subordinates 3.Available time needed to make decision. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- SERVANT LEADERSHIP >Coined by Robert Greenleaf >The idea of the servant as a leader came out of reading Hermann Hesses The Journey To The East. >Servant does the menial chores also sustained by the partys spirits though his extraordinary presence. When the servant left the group, the group fell into disarray and the journey was abandoned. >Servants leadership puts serving first, takes a holistic approach, shares decision making, and builds community >First published an essay in 1970 entitled Servant as a Leader >"The servant-leader is servant first It begins with the >natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. That person is sharply different from one who is leader first, perhaps because of the need to assuage an unusual power drive or to acquire material possessionsThe leader-first and the servant-first are two extreme types. Between them there are shadings and blends that are part of the infinite variety of human nature." >Practical relationship which supports people who choose to serve first, and then lead as a way of expanding service to individuals and institutions

TYPES OF MANAGEMENT DECISION STYLES

AI- Solves the problem using information available to you at that time.

AII- Obtains necessary information from your subordinates then decides on the solution to the problem yourself.

CI- Shares the problem with relevant subordinates individually, getting their ideas or suggestions without bringing them together as a group.

CII- Shares the problem with your subordinates as a group, collectively obtaining their ideas and suggestions.

GII- Shares a problem with your subordinates as a group. Together you generate and evaluate alternatives and attempt to reach agreement on a solution.

7 Decision rules that do most of the work of the model 1.The information rule if the quality of the decision is important and if the leader does not possess enough information or expertise to solve the problem alone, Al is eliminated. 2. The goal congruence rule if the quality of the decision is important and if the subordinates do not share the organizational goals to be obtained in solving the problem, GII is eliminated. 3.The unstructured problem rule in decisions in which the quality of the decision is important, if the leader lacks the necessary information or expertise to solve the problem alone and if the problem is unstructured, the method used must allow the leader not only to collect the information but also to do so in efficient and effective manner. AI, AII and CI are eliminated.

>Encourages collaboration, trust, foresight, listening and ethical use of power and empowerment >Has the potential to create positive thoughts throughout the society ethical perspective on leadership that identifies key moral behaviors that leaders must continuously demonstrate in order to make progress on Greenleafs (1977/2002) best test. The best test, which gives us the ethical ends for action, combined with Spears distillation of traits that identified the means, create a powerful framework for a review of the literature that furthers the conceptual framework for servant-leadership. Characteristics of the Servant-leadership

Listener- a leader has a deep commitment to listening intently to others. It also encompasses getting in touch with ones own inner voice and seeking to understand what ones body, spirit and mind are communicating. Listening coupled with regular periods of reflection, is essential to the growth of servant-leader Empathy- servant-leader strives to understand and empathize with others. Healing-learning to heal is a powerful force of transformation and integration. Awareness- General awareness and self-awareness, strengthens the servant-leader Characteristics of a Servant leader *Persuasion *Conceptualization-seek to nurture their abilities to dream great dreams. The ability to look at problem from a conceptualizing perspective means that one must think beyond day-to-day realities *Foresight- ability to understand the lessons from the past, realities of the present, consequences of the future *Stewardship- holding something in trust for another *Commitement of the growth of people *Building community ---------------------------------------------------------------------------BUREAUCRATIC LEADERSHIP -This style of leadership follows a close set of standards. Everything is done in an exact, specific way to ensure safety and/or accuracy. You will often find this leadership role in a situation where the work environment is dangerous and specific sets of procedures are necessary to ensure safety. -Bureaucratic administration means fundamentally domination through knowledge -Max Weber CHARACTERISTIC OF BUREAUCRATIC LEADERSHIP: >Leaders impose strict and systematic discipline on the followers and demand business-like conduct in the workplace >Leaders are empowered via the office they hold position power >Followers are promoted based on their ability to conform to the rules of the office >Follower should obey leaders because authority is bestowed upon the leader as part of their position in the company

Weber's ideal bureaucracy is characterized by hierarchical organization, delineated lines of authority in a fixed area of activity, action taken on the basis of and recorded in written rules, bureaucratic officials need expert training, rules are implemented by neutral officials, career advancement depends on technical qualifications judged by organization, not individuals While recognizing bureaucracy as the most efficient form of organization, and even indispensable for the modern state, Weber also saw it as a threat to individual freedoms, and ADVANTAGE OF BUREAUCRATIC LEADERSHIP -Positive work environment -quality work -ultimate control DISADVANTAGES OF BUREAUCRATIC LEADERSHIP -poor communication -lack of creativity -Power obsession ---------------------------------------------------------------------------RELATIONAL AND SHARED LEADERSHIP (Relational Leadership) >Refers to a model or perspective on leadership that focuses on the idea that leadership effectiveness has to do with the ability of the leader to create positive relationships within the organizations. (Margaret J. Wheatley,1992) 5 Components: >Inclusive >Empowering >Purposeful >Ethical >Process-Oriented Inclusive

Being understanding, valuing, and actively

engaging diversity in views, approaches, styles and aspects of individuality such as sex or culture that add multiple perspectives to a groups activity. Empowering

Thriving on change demands, the empowerment of

every person in the organization no ifs, ands, or buts. Purposeful

Having a commitment to a goal or activity.

Ability to collaborate and to find common ground

Purpose of bureaucracy >is to successfully implement the actions of an organization of any size in achieving its purpose and mission, and the bureaucracy is tasked to determine how it can achieve its purpose and mission with the greatest possible efficiency and at the least cost of any resources. Webers Idea on Bureaucratic leadership

with others to facilitate positive change. Creating positive change can mean working hard, toward resolving differences among participants, finding a common direction, and building a shared vision to improve the organization, or enhance others in some way

Ethical

Emphasizes ethical and moral leadership.

Driven by values and standards and leadership

that is good-moral-in nature. Process-Oriented

How the group goes about being a group,

remaining a group, and accomplishing a groups purposes. (Shared Leadership) >Also known as Partnership-as-Leadership, Distributed Leadership, and Community of leaders. >The idea of leadership as partnership suggests the basic concept of 2 or more people sharing power and joining forces to move toward accomplishment of a shared goal. (Russ S. Moxley,2000) >Effective delegation in the shared leadership model involves giving people responsibility and freedom, responsibility to find the information and resources needed to work on their task, and the freedom to do it in their own way >One person does not delegate, because members choose to do what they do best. 5 Requirements for the partnership model to work:

Concern

Trust

Respect

Appreciation

Affection

Hope

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

CHAOS THEORY -developed by MArgaret Wheatley -it is scientific principle describing the unpredictability if the system -the primary tool for this theory os the sytems theory which is used to describe process that change over time. -when a system become dislodged, it goes through a period of oscilation -Chaos is the final state in a systems movement away from order -Chaos theory see how organizations function as unified systems Factors affecting CHAOS theory -effective leadership -a guiding vision -strong values -organizational beliefs -open communication

Balance of power - for this model to be a partnership one person cannot have power and the others dont. They must be equal partners.

Shared purpose or goal must understand the ultimate goal of the group. This model is very powerful when everyone is working toward the same goal.

Share responsibility for the work of the group

each person in the partnership must take an active role and be accountable for completing their individual contribution.

Respect for the person each person in the

group brings with them skills and ideas that are valuable. The partnership must recognize and embrace the differences in the group.

Partnering in the nitty-gritty working together

in complex, real world situation. The virtues in building stronger and healthier communities and organizations:
