Leadership from the Inside Out

Leadership from the Inside Out… 7 Do-It-Yourself Steps to Grow Your Leadership Skills

Johnetta Thurston | 2020

Abstract

Some people desire leadership positions, while others have leader positions thrust upon them. Nevertheless, often after assuming a leadership role, one is left with questions such as, “What do I do now? Furthermore, what is a leader?” Effective and authentic leaders are needed in every industry and organization; they play a pivotal role in all aspects of society. Regardless of how leaders and leadership are defined, the fact remains that individuals are needed to move plans and projects forward; and at the center of leadership is the leader, the person that impacts and influences others.

Companies must attract and retain talent, and after attracting top talent, organizations are then tasked with developing those individuals into effective leaders. However, to become an authentic and effective leader, one must develop their unique abilities and utilize those gifts to live out their purpose, help others, and impact the world around them.

Leadership development continues to evolve and is not the responsibility of organizations alone. Gone are the days of people waiting for others to provide the tools needed to become an authentic leader. Leaders must take ownership of their development. Leadership From the Inside Out follows the leadership journey of the fictional character Jason McMillian, as he learns that leadership is much more than technical skills and giving orders. Readers follow Jason as he explores seven dimensions of leadership.

Additionally, the reader can utilize exercises and answer questions, through-out the text that will aid in personal leadership development. Whether a new leader or a seasoned leader with a desire to sharpen their leadership skills, the process requires an individual assessment, self-reflection, and hard work. Explore self-awareness, identify and develop a personal mission and vision statement, delve into values and discover how they drive decisions and behavior, outline strengths and weaknesses and perform a SWOT analysis, identify ethics, and finally assess relationships. Whether improving performance, positioning for career advancement, enhancing relationships, managing stress, or motivating a team, it all begins with growing your leadership skills.

Enemies To Leadership: The Complexities of Leadership & Lessons Learned

Enemies To Leadership: The Complexities of Leadership & Lessons Learned

Kaenean T. Warren | 2020

Abstract

Leadership is an honor and a privilege. However, it comes with many challenges and complexities. Many people look from the outside and covet the position. However, true leadership comes from the inside. It is a self-less and self-sacrificing role. Yet, leadership is a full-filling role to serve others. When God calls and chooses one to lead then expect enemies to show up on the scene. Leaders have many enemies and then there is the enemy: Satan. Thus, enemies against leadership come in many forms. The Bible provides many stories of those who came against leadership. In this book I discuss the spirit of those characters in reference to their behavior and actions not the actual person. However, every challenging person is not necessarily an enemy. There are times a leader may be facing personality and character differences, sociocultural, and psychological issues such as emotional intelligence. The Bible gives us a blueprint for detecting and managing our enemies. As such, a leader’s ability to recognize and overcome enemies is the purpose and goal of this book for leaders and leadership.

The Poetic Nature of Leading Others: An Evaluation of Organizational Relationships, Team Communication, and Leader Experience

The Poetic Nature of Leading Others: An Evaluation of Organizational Relationships, Team Communication, and Leader Experience

Morgan A. Wells | 2020

Abstract

The relationship between organizational leaders and employees can flourish because of common knowledge, shared communications, and a leader’s experience level. Leaders and followers develop interpersonal connections and drive productive behaviors in the workplace. Organizational cultures offer a professional environment unique to a home or social setting. Leaders in this setting make decisions that influence employees across the entire organizational platform. Stakeholders contribute to the culture of their workplace in how they interact with others to share information. Understanding various system thinking perspectives of leaders can assist followers. Leaders should assist followers to motivate progress through their organizational journey. Leaders can integrate specific leadership strategies that aim to improve collaborative techniques. Engaging leaders prove to encourage diversely-talented, communicative teams. These positive results correlate with an increase of attention to sharing language and experiences.

As a writer’s poetic nature is displayed as they approach the design of their prose, a leader must encourage their team. A goal to improve the utilization of cross-collaboration and communication skills happens from strategic planning and elevated project management techniques. Such techniques should include planned goals to improve team performance and ways leaders can incorporate interactive communication systems with a collaborative mindset.

The purpose of this manuscript is to review organizational management literature and develop a framework for leaders to utilize interpersonal communication strategies to approach project collaboration. Through leadership and communication theory research, a Team Workmanship model emerged. This Team Workmanship model demonstrates how the “Whole Table Approach” effectively facilitates leader learning for the betterment of team communication skills-building and performance management. This manuscript will explore organizational relationships and team communication as they relate to a leader’s demonstrated experience. This document will illustrate lessons from leadership-focused poetic works to help readers impact their leader strategy within their organizational cultures. When finished reading this manuscript, leaders will understand the benefit of utilizing the Team Workmanship theory and the Whole Table Approach to practice team consulting or to improve team performance in any organizational culture. Lastly, leaders should utilize this manuscript to reflect on their current strategy and design new organizational plans to allow for the success this theory promises.

KEYWORDS: Organizational culture, leader-follower relationships; communication; interaction, team performance, leadership experience, collaboration, consulting.

Understanding Harmful Discrimination in the Church and Religious Organizations From a Biblical Perspective

Understanding Harmful Discrimination in the Church and Religious Organizations From a Biblical Perspective

Judy Williams | 2020

Abstract

The purpose of the seminar/workshop was to intentionally give participants an understanding of what harmful discrimination is in the church, and organizations look like from a biblical perspective in the 21^st century. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once stated that “Sunday is the most segregated day of the week.” Therefore, the presenter of this seminar/workshop accomplished an informal qualitative experiment. The answer to the statement is correct. Once a Christian grows to a mature Christian achieving, God’s will in Jesus’ name. With facilitation from the Holy Spirit, there should be no such thing as harmful discrimination occurring in any church or organization. However, that is not the case. Leadership is responsible for teaching the congregation the way of the Bible. By doing an informal study by observation and voluntary working in one of the churches, it is apparent that individuals are either ignorant or intentionally trying to keep the member’s status quo with them versus us mentality. Individuals attending this awareness seminar/workshop may want to make a change in spiritual and personal life activities. Included are in-depth definitions. Along with illustrated examples of the distinct levels of discrimination from seminal authors such as the renowned professor Allport. It may be possible that by the end of this seminar/workshop, individuals and leaders will have a more detailed understanding of what harmful discrimination is and ways to alleviate it. The tools that will facilitate and alleviate harmful discrimination are the Holy Spirit, personal development and several other tools such as servant leadership. Also, to self-reflect to change the current behavior if the behavior is not in-line with that of the Lord and Savior’s purpose or will. It is recommended that leadership seek help with personnel development by seeking a coach or mentors. Here is an essential note in Scripture, Ephesians 4:17-18 New Testament Amplified [17] so then I say and solemnly testified in [the name of] the Lord [as in His presence] that you must no longer live as the heathen (the Gentiles) do in their perverseness [in the folly, vanity, and emptiness of their souls and the futility) of their minds. [18] their moral understanding is darkened, and their reasoning is beclouded. [They are] alienated estranged, self-banished) from the life of God [with no share in it: this is] because of the ignorance (the want of knowledge and perception, the willful blindness) that is deep-seated in them, due to their hardness of heart [to the insensitiveness of their moral nature]. Therefore it is imperative to engage in this seminar/workshop with an open mind.

An Analytic Review of Patient Harm Events

An Analytic Review of Patient Harm Events

Bryan P. Zimmerman | 2020

Abstract

Patient safety strategy and the inherent culture is both a moral and ethical obligation to regulatory compliance, the patient, and the healthcare system overall. Events of patient harm in medicine are a known risk; however, that does not preclude the industry from detection, analysis, and mitigation as an imperative to improve care and develop evidence-based best practice initiatives advancing medical science. This study utilized the failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) method to strategically ascertain the contributing factors, frequency of occurrence, and current prevention methods related to the patient harm events. Additionally, a critical evaluation through the direct insight of organizational culture revealed siloed hierarchal system divisions that are not transparent, creating barriers to speak up for safety and report events accurately. This extensive study combined the data analytics of statistical significance upon researching three hundred and thirty-nine events of harm and the cultural viability of adopting a transformational culture organizationally driven from the Executive leadership to the front-line caregivers regarding patient safety practices. Error prevention strategy from a healthcare standpoint requires the foundational principles of trust, report, and improvement essential to building a better tomorrow through actions taken today.

The Brand New Leader: Recognizing the Impact of your Leadership Brand

The Brand New Leader: Recognizing the Impact of your Leadership Brand

Melva Robertson | 2020

Abstract

The extensive leadership literature of our day focuses on thewhatandhowof leadership success. Numerous definitions, concepts, behaviors, and traits of leadership all aim to pinpoint the “magic formula” that makes leaders effective. However, one vital yet often overlooked area in these conversations is the emphasis on thepersonalaspects of leadership.

This book takes a deep dive into the notion of leadership as a personal brand. It provides theories, strategies, and examples, along with evidence suggesting that leadership derives from — and is influenced by — a more personal context. It is based on the premise that there is no separation between the leader as a person and the leadership title. Leadership values stem primarily from personal values, and even the perceptions of a leader are automatically associated with the individual.

As we recognize leadership as a personal brand, we will also dissect the concept of branding and discuss steps to establish a leadership brand that aligns leadership with personal values and attributes. We explore how an awareness of such qualities contributes to leadership development, responsibility, and outcomes. Throughout this book, readers will develop strategies to connect more common leadership concepts to their leadership brands. Through these discoveries, leaders will unveil unique and specific characteristics to help generate productive and sustainable leadership success. This book aims to help broaden the idea of leadership and consider a new perspective that ignites more impactful leadership results.

The Great Deception: Discovering Why You Already Are the Leader You Were Born to Be

The Great Deception: Discovering Why You Already Are the Leader You Were Born to Be

Bridgette Sanders | 2020

Abstract

The question asked of every great leader is, “What makes them great?” This question’s elusiveness hinges on the variety of traits, characteristics, and behaviors of each leader. For years leadership theory has tried to answer this question to no avail. However, behind this question lies another fundamentally human one: “Can I also be great?” From Alexander to Eisenhower, great leaders have sprinkled history with images of exceptionalism that seem unattainable to everyone else. Even contemporary greats, like Steve Jobs, have left pedestals too high for most to climb. This book attempts to help leaders dispel the “greatness” myth, or deception, that only the noblest of us may pull the proverbial sword from the stone. In fact, achieving greatness may just be a matter of a leader finding the right sword in the right rock.

Newer ways of looking at leadership (through identity and influence) have emerged that afford a more expansive view of leadership effectiveness. The centuries-old ideas, fueled by the Great Man theory which has been the status quo, denied generations of leaders the opportunity to see themselves in such a light. In recent years, the rise of the social identity theory of leadership (SITL) has ascertained that the most effective leaders emerge from the group as prototypical members. Leaders are, therefore, not only representatives of their groups but extensions of them. As such, their path to greatness lies in fortifying the group’s influence and identity. The SITL is used as a framework for understanding the impact of leadership identity, and a new conceptualization, the leadership spherical system of influences (LSSI), is introduced to emphasize the importance of leadership influence. The present manuscript focuses on these theoretical aspects of leadership from the perspective of the Garden of Eden, where Adam, Eve, and the serpent set the stage for this lesson about the capacity that lies in every human being. In so doing, this work proposes that every person can become a great leader.

Teaching Modern Business Ethics

Teaching Modern Business Ethics

David Shurtleff | 2020

Abstract

Teaching relevant college-level business ethics is a critically important endeavor especially considering the dynamic nature of business, technology, and social changes that are currently occurring. Ethical issues continue to plague many institutions and these issues can have wide-ranging financial, reputational, safety, privacy, and employment-related impacts on organizations, individuals, and society. Research has identified the need for updated teaching material and instructional approaches to business ethics that address these issues. This project developed a complete course to address modern business ethical topics and to provide both updated research material and new instructional methods.

In terms of material, this course provides a fundamental understanding of ethics and refutes the post-modern notions of relativism and the use of individual opinions as a basis for ethical behavior. Additionally, organizational culture and leadership are highlighted as more important than formal, legalistic compliance programs for determining long-lasting and consistent ethical outcomes. Individual ethics form the foundation for organizational ethics and this concept is strongly stressed throughout the course. Ethics is also about action and an ethical decision-making model is introduced along with a discussion on the importance of having the moral courage to speak up and act when faced with ethical dilemmas. Finally, several relevant special topics concerning the ethics associated with technology are introduced. The unique ethical problems associated with high social media usage, virtual reality, autonomous transportation, artificial intelligence, and big data analytics are addressed.

Instructionally, a variety of approaches are provided to interject both theory and practice to the student. Traditional written and video presentation material is provided along with numerous class discussion-type questions that are intended to promote robust and critical thinking on ethical issues. The development of a critical thought process is important for the student’s ethical development. Numerous practical case studies taken from both historical and business perspectives are provided. Ethical dilemma scenarios are also included wherein the students will have to problem solve and determine the ethical course of action for each scenario. Finally, an industry engagement activity is planned in which an interaction with a local business entity (who will provide an ethical issue that the organization is dealing with) is required and it is up to the students to research the problem and present solutions to the organization.

Overall, the goal of the course is to equip students with a strong foundation for dealing with ethical issues in the modern business arena.

Are You Ready for Gen Z?

Are You Ready for Gen Z?

Joel Simons | 2020

Abstract

Are You Ready for Gen Z? is a three-part seminar series designed to prepare modern organizations for the needs and nuances of their future employees. This seminar considers Generation Z as the disruptive generation through their integration of technology into all aspects of life and learning. Generation Z is coming to each organization over the next twenty years, so firms must adapt their strategies for employee recruitment, development, and communication.

Part 1 focuses on setting the stage for a multi-generational workforce. Generation Z is highly educated, achievement oriented, and concerned with social justice. They prefer virtual communication and desire a job that is interesting and engaging, but demand convenience and struggle with basic soft skills. Organizations must learn to trim the waste in their communication through visuals, technology, and hands-on learning to improve accessibility of content. Part 2 focuses on the development of Generation Z, who desire a culture of safety, fear making mistakes, and feel unprepared for their career despite extensive education. Generation Z is motivated by honesty, reliability, and commitment from their peers and supervisors. However, Generation Z desires recognition for their work and believes respect is earned rather than given based on an authority position. Part 3 pivots to transitioning your organizational communication strategy to one that Generation Z natively understands. Although Generation Z is a disruptor to communication, their tendencies provide organizations with an opportunity to modernize and streamline their communication strategies. In fact, changing the way you communicate allows leaders to convey large amounts of information in small windows of time and space.
