ATTITUDE
Our Single greatest gift is the freedom to choose our
attitude. Your attitude is more important than
knowledge, education, background, wealth, position,
talent or appearance.
It is even more powerful than what other people
think or say or do. It will make or break a team a
companya persona relationshipa home.
I am convinced that life is 5% what happens to
me and 95% how I choose to look and react to it. And
so it is with you
Your attitude is your choice!
By Ellen A. Mille

Styles of LS
Autocratic

----- Directed style ---- It does not take

group input and rely on telling followers what to


do.
Democratic ----- Participative ---- MBO --- Democratic
styles seek input from the group though the final
decision rests with the leader.
Laissez-faire ------ Free rein ----- Leaders using a
laissez faire approach are literally hands off.
They do not provide a lot of direction and prefer
to let the group do what it will.
02/21/15

SIX LEADERSHIP STYLES


1. Transformational Leadership:
A transformational leader
appeals to a follower's higher needs like fulfillment or justice. Under
a transformational approach, the leader and follower's drive and
enthusiasm are increased leaving both changed for the better.
2. Transactional Leadership: Transactional leadership is an
exchange type of style that deals with rewarding followers by
meeting immediate needs or doling out punishments. Under a
transactional approach, followers are either positively or negatively
awarded for their actions.
3. Servant Leadership: In the business world, a servant leadership
style can be described as a boss or manager who removes
roadblocks to help his employees do their jobs or achieve great
success. Qualities of the style include listening, empathy,
persuasion and a dedication to improving the growth of followers.

SIX LEADERSHIP STYLES


4. Emergent Leadership: An emergent leadership style
depends on an individual's ability to meet followers
needs at a specific point in time in the absence of a
formally appointed leader or an accepted leader.
5. Situational Leadership: Is defined by a leader's ability to
switch her approach based on the needs of followers.
There are four approaches to a situation leadership
style: telling, selling, participating and delegating.
Followers who are unwilling or unable to do a job require
a telling approach.
6. Behavioral Leadership Styles: Three types of styles
under the behavioral umbrella are autocratic, democratic
and laissez faire.

FAR REACHING CONSEQUENCES

UBS chief executive Oswald Gruebel has resigned over a $2.3


billion rogue trading loss

RAMALLAH, WEST BANK Two days after seeking full


membership for a state of Palestine in the United Nations, Mahmoud
Abbas, the President of the Palestinian Authority, returned here on
Sunday to a heros welcome.

King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia on Sunday granted women the right


to vote and run in future municipal elections, the biggest change in a
decade for women in a puritanical kingdom that practices strict
gender separation, including banning women from driving.

IMF DG --- Ms. Lagarde --- European banks were not as sheltered
from this storm as they might seem.

Pakistan ----- USA blames Pakistan Army and ISI for aiding and
abetting terrorists harming US Forces and Interests in Afghanistan

(GENEVA) UBS chief executive Oswald Gruebel has resigned over a $2.3
billion rogue trading loss, the bank said Saturday. The move ends days of
speculation about whether Gruebel could retain his position following the latest
scandal
to
hit
Switzerland's
biggest
bank.
UBS Europe chief Sergio P. Ermotti will take over immediately as interim chief
executive until Gruebel's replacement is appointed, the bank said in a
statement.
(SEE HOW UBS CAN BOUNCE BACK FROM THE TRADING SCANDAL.)
UBS's president Kaspar Villiger said the board regretted Gruebel's decision to
resign but had decided to accept it. "Oswald Gruebel feels that it is his duty to
assume responsibility for the recent unauthorized trading incident," Villiger was
quoted as saying in the statement. "It is testimony to his uncompromising
principles
and
integrity.
London-based UBS trader Kweku Adoboli was arrested last week and charged
with fraud and false accounting for the $2.3 billion loss. A judge ordered him
Thursday to be held in jail until a hearing next month.
Villiger said Gruebel, who was brought in more than two years ago to help
revive the fortunes of the Zurich-based bank, had achieved "an impressive
turnaround and strengthened UBS fundamentally." "He steps down having
helped make UBS one of the world's best capitalized banks," Villiger added.

RAMALLAH, WEST BANK


Two days after seeking full membership for a
state of Palestine in the United Nations,
Mahmoud Abbas, the president of the Palestinian
Authority, returned here on Sunday to a heros
welcome. He told his supporters that they were
part of a Palestinian Spring and that he would
resume peace talks only if Israel froze settlement
building.
On Friday 23 Sep11, the United States, the
United Nations, Russia and the European Union
known together as the Quartet urged the
Palestinians and Israelis to return to direct
negotiations
within
one
month
without
preconditions. Since that call is close to the
Israeli position, Israeli leaders welcomed it.

King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia


Granted women the right to vote and run in future
municipal elections, the biggest change in a
decade for women in a puritanical kingdom that
practices strict gender separation, including
banning women from driving.
Saudi women, who are legally subject to male
chaperones for almost any public activity, hailed
the royal decree as an important, if limited, step
toward making them equal to their male
counterparts. They said the uprisings sweeping
the Arab world for the past nine months along
with sustained domestic pressure for womens
rights and a more representative form of
government prompted the change.

IMF DG --- Ms. Lagarde had gone independent

In the few short months since becoming the first woman to lead the
I.M.F., Ms. Lagarde had taken her former European colleagues to
task for not speaking with a single voice to save the euro. In speech
after speech, she had warned that the austerity that Europe was
pressing on Greece and its debt-weakened neighbors was choking
economic growth and needed to be tamed.

Worse, as far as the men seated in the room were concerned, Ms.
Lagarde was partly responsible for the collapse of confidence
bedeviling the financial markets. For she had dared to state what
none of them would admit publicly: that European banks were not
as sheltered from this storm as they might seem.

Was this the I.M.F. talking? It was now, under Ms. Lagarde. As the
future of the euro hangs in the balance, she is emerging as the
European who is willing to speak openly about Europes problems.

THE POWER OF VISION


The best way to predict the future is to create it.
Peter Drucker

The most important function of a leader:


Develop a clear and compelling picture of the
future, and to secure commitment to that ideal.

Fords Leadership strategy:


Affect The moving assembly line
Make fair payments to workers
Ensure Vertical integration

Any other examples:

VISION AS AN IDEAL

Future orientation
Standard of excellence
Virtuous condition
Quality of uniqueness
Ideal image what is and what it should be
3 Questions:
Is the proposed direction a correct one
Are the goals so enunciated correct
Is this the right time to pursue the goals

LEADER AS A VISIONARY

When leaders have passion and


authority, others are inspired to follow
The research has led to three acts:
1. Leader is to recognize the need for change
(New vision)
2. Create a clear and positive vision for the
future
3. To institute empowering structures and
processes to achieve the vision

LEADER AS A VISIONARY
Taking personal responsibility for initiating
change

organization
Trusting and supporting others

VISION AND LEADERSHIP


Leadership
is
important
from
the
boardroom to the shop floor

have
no
relationship
to
leadership performance

times of change
Organizational
leadership
involves
interdependence more than individualism
Leaders inspire others to take on the tasks
of leadership
Leadership is contextual

CH-7 ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE


Organizations have peculiar attributes:
Strict rituals to handle situations
Certain pace and style of working
Unspoken taboos
Social structures pecking orders etc
Habits governing dress, food language etc
Norms dealing with utilization of resources

An org is only as strong as its weakest link


Organizational climate plays the major role
Ex 7-1 page 79

PATTERNS OF LEADERSHIP
Exploitative
Autocratic and hierarchical with no
participation by the members. Benevolence is missing
Impoverished Power remains at the top, but
members are given occasional opportunities in the DM
process. Benevolence, if accompanied by autocracy
maintains the organization in good health.
Supportive Power resides in leaders but members
have confidence in the organization and leaders. Broad
spectrum of involvement in DM process.
Enlightened People at all levels of organization
have high level of freedom to initiate, coordinate, and
execute plans. HR related issues are at the lowest ebb.

BUILDING COMMUNITY IN WORKPLACE

Shared vision
Wholeness incorporating diversity
Shared culture
Internal communications
Consideration and trust
Maintenance and government
Participation and shared leadership
Development of younger leaders
Affirmation
Links with outside groups

innovation and style
Self-censorship

keep their views (divergent) to themselves
Mind-guards disallow free flow of communication

TEAM LEADERSHIP

Teams perform most successfully when


they have a Leader who facilitates the work
of the group to accomplish, there is
agreement on direction; accountability,
allocation of resources; and partnering ---a supportive work climate exists all around.
The most Effective Team Leaders are
caring individuals who have a passion for
the work and a concern for the people.
