and Cultivating New Leaders
Slide 2
Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership 1) Model the way, 2)
Inspire a shared vision, 3) Challenge the process, 4) Enable others
to act, and 5) Encourage the heart. Kouzes, J. M., & Posner, B.
Z. (2007). The leadership Challenge (4th ed.), San Francisco, CA:
John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
Slide 3
Responsible Leadership One key element to successful leadership
is having a core language that sets the culture within the
organization. Having this core language instills value in coaching,
giving feedback, and resolving conflicts. This culture is one of
respecting others opinions, listening and acknowledging others,
sharing mutual trust, promoting responsibility awareness, and
supporting one another to achieve goals Concelman, J., &
Phelps, M. (2014). Lost in translation. T+D, 68(3), 40-45.
Slide 4
So what is involved for instituting creative and innovative
leadership in the future? Different types of teams. There will be
strengths and weaknesses with any unit which makes them stronger
together. The principles for responsible management education
(PRME) help spread the word about new values and ideas. These
principles are purpose, values, method, research, partnership, and
dialogue (Prandini, Vervoort Isler, & Barthelmess, 2012, p. 17)
Knowledge, skills, and attitudes are the key components of the
framework for creating sustainable leadership. These behaviors
themselves define the core elements of responsible leadership:
Acting with integrity, caring for people, demonstrating ethical
behavior, communicating with others, taking a long-term
perspective, being open- minded, and managing responsibly outside
the organization (Prandini et al., 2012, p. 19).
Slide 5
21 st Century Successful Leaders Credibility is the foundation
of leadership. When researchers assess the believability of
sources, there are three criteria evaluated: perceived
trustworthiness, expertise, and dynamism. (Kouzes & Posner,
2007) Jeff Bezos, Amazon.com Bill Gates, Microsoft Steve Jobs,
Apple Herb Kelleher, Southwest Airlines Elon Musk, PayPal, Tesla
Alan Mulally, Ford Motor Company. Indra Nooyi, PepsiCo Howard
Schultz, Starbucks Mark Zuckerberg and Cheryl Sandberg, Facebook,
(Strock, 2010)
Slide 6
Unique to every new leader is a personal vision. For
motivation, it is important to incorporate dreams and passions. A
leader should be true and anchored in who he or she is as a person.
This will reflect the values placed on his or her leadership.
Leadership should not be static and continue to evolve. Successful
leaders look for patterns and trends from their life experiences
(King, Altman, & Lee, 2011). Creative involvement tells a lot
about a leaders passions and interests, which help form a vision.
Leaders must follow their intuition and look beyond themselves.
Leadership is a collective activity that brings the head of an
organization together with its constituents to have a common vision
and goal (King et al., 2011).
Slide 7
First seek to understand then to be understood. Habit number
five of Stephen Coveys work entitled The 7 Habits of Highly
Effective People is to first seek to understand then to be
understood. To master this task requires practice by implementation
over and over again with feedback from others. A successful leader
must communicate well and listen and see things from other points
of view, realize the strengths and weaknesses of both sides, then
seek for understanding from his or her point of view (Covey,
2004).
Slide 8
Charismatic and engaged leaders ignite the energy, passions,
and talents in others around them. Leaders like this are successful
in organizations because they understand that people commit to
causes and not plans. This transformational leadership style
enlists people to infuse their energy into strategies. Taking
leadership ideas to the next level of implementation requires
forward-looking and thinking in times of rapid change. Shared
visions have the power to sustain commitment. Creative leaders
picture what is to be done next, the unique image of what the
future holds for themselves and the organization as a whole. The
constituents of an organization should be surveyed though to
account that everyone has the same path and goal (Kouzes,
2007).
Slide 9
HAVE FUN! HAVE FUN!! Values essential for leadership are having
creativity and realizing while tradition may be respected there may
often be a better ways to accomplish common goals. Equality enables
everyone to feel important and part of a cause. Everyone needs to
feel what they are setting out to accomplish has meaning and is
worthwhile (King et al., 2011, p. 89).
