Introduction to Leadership and


Management
BSN IV – B
LEADERSHIP GAP

Globally, there is a severe nursing shortage


that makes the profession in crisis.
Locally, the profession produces thousands of
nurses yearly. But many of these nurses
intend to work outside the country to seek
better opportunities. After gaining the
mandatory experience, many seek work
outside the country which leaves
Leadership
The Philippines with untrained and unskilled
nurses who can be a risk factor to the health
care profession (Estella, 2005; Ubalde, 2007).
The gap exists between the growing
demand of a rising population for the delivery
of quality and cost effective patient outcomes
in healthcare and the lack of a strong nursing
leadership.
Definitions of leadership

A process by which one inspires others to
work together for the achievement of a
common mission, goal or a social transaction
(Merton, 1969)

A vital ingredient which transforms a mere
crowd into a functional and useful
organization. It can be thought that it is a
transferable skill (Adair, 1983)
Definitions of leadership

The process of influencing the activities of an
organized group in its effort toward goal
setting and goal achievement (Stogdill, 1974)


A means of persuasion and example by which
an individual induces a group to take action in
accord with a purpose common to everyone
(Gardner, 1993)
Leadership

Is a social influence or a person's


ability to move other people to act. It is
initiating and guiding and the result is
change. The product of real leadership
is a new character or direction for an
organization or situation that would
never have happened.
Leadership

The privilege to have the responsibility to


direct the actions of others at varying levels
of authority and with accountability to both
successful and failed endeavors. (Roberts,
1989)
Leading people, the ability to listen, translate,
decide and motivate others (Chen 2007)
Leadership

Who leaders are


Values, motives and personal traits
What leaders know
Knowledge, skills and abilities
What leaders do
Behaviors, habits, styles and competencies
Nursing leadership

Is defined as the process where the nurse


influences one or more persons to achieve
specific goals in the provision of nursing
care of one or more patients. It is a multi-
dimensional process. - Gardner

Process &
Functions
Theories and principles

The knowledge acquired from learning the


theories and principles of leadership and
management contributes to an empowered
nurse leader and manager. One simply has to
activate such knowledge that was learned to
address work related issues.
Management processes and
functions

The application of creative problem solving


strategies is accomplished through the four
functions of management: planning,
organizing, staffing, directing and controlling.
Management processes and
functions
A. Planning:
1. Determining philosophy, goals,
objectives, policies, procedures and rules.
2. Carrying out long and short-range
projections.
3. Determining a fiscal course of action
4. Managing planned change.
Management processes and functions
B. Organizing
1. Establishing the structure to carry out plans
2. Determining the most appropriate type of
patient care delivery.
3. Grouping activities to meet unit needs.
4. Working within the structure of the
organization.
5. Understanding and using power and

Effective and Efficient Leadership

Leadership should both be efficient and


effective. One should be able to lead at the
right time and maximize one's resources to
attain the goal.
EFFECTIVE NURSING LEADERSHIP

EFFICIENCY- DOING THE THINGS RIGHT-


- ability to maximize the use of time and
resources in achieving organizational
objectives.
EFFECTIVENESS - DOING THE RIGHT
THING--ability to determine whether
appropriate objectives are met.
Resources (7M's)

1. MONEY
Refers to a budget that would allocate for
an undertaking.
2. MEN
Refers to human resources that are
needed to achieve the goal.
Resources – continuation:
3. MACHINES
Are devices that help the organization by
either performing tasks faster or doing work
that humans cannot. They normally require an
energy source, also known as INPUT and are
expected to perform work, also known as
OUTPUT. Devices with no rigid moving part
can be considered TOOLS.
Resources- continuation

4. MATERIALS
Are physical resources used as inputs in
the nursing process.
5. METHODS
Refer to the body of techniques for
investigating phenomena, acquiring new
knowledge, or correcting and integrating
previous knowledge.
Resources- continuation

NURSING METHOD
Is a planned procedure intended to achieve
a predetermined result. The method usually
consists of data gathering from both the
results of active experimentation and causal
but controlled observation, and the testing
of new ideas for validation.
Resources- continuation

6. MOMENT
Refers to time as a fundamental quantity
used for several purposes; such as
sequential arrangement, comparison of
different events, and measurement of
motion of objects.
Resources- continuation

TIME MANAGEMENT is the organization of


tasks or events which begins with estimating
how much time is needed for a task, and
learning to adjust to unexpected events that
may prevent or jeopardize its completion in
order to complete the task in the appropriate
amount of time.
Resources- continuation

7. MANAGER
Is a person responsible for planning and
directing the work of a group of individuals,
monitoring their work, and taking
corrective

Pointers to the Leadership Path

1. Begin with yourself


Who you are and what you are
Why you do and what you do on a daily basis
2. Know how to lead
3. Apply it yourself
4. Evaluate your gains and reflect on the
losses.
5. Change yourself
Nursing leadership can be
characterized by the ff traits
and actions
L- lead, love, learn
E- enthusiastic, energetic
A- assertive, achiever
D- dedicated, desirous
E- efficient and effective
R- responsible, respectful
DIFFERENCE between
LEADERSHIP and MANAGEMENT

LEADERSHIP is doing the right thing while
MANAGEMENT is doing the things right.

LEADERSHIP is a RELATIONSHIP between
leader and followers that can give life to an
organization. MANAGEMENT is a
FUNCTION that must be performed in any
organization,
DIFFERENCE between LEADERSHIP and
MANAGEMENT
Leadership requires more complex skills than
management, and that management is only
one role of leadership
A job title does not make a person a leader;

only a person’s behavior determines


leadership.
Management emphasizes control;

leadership emphasizes effectiveness


Difference between leaders and
managers
 LEADER  MANAGER
 May or may not  Officially appointed

appointment to the
position

DIFFERENCE between LEADERSHIP
and MANAGEMENT

One may be a good nurse leader but not a


good manager. A LEADER IS:
1. Able to inspire her followers or specifically
her staff to do things beyond their call of duty.
2. Able to lift the staff's morale
3. Able to motivate the staff to think solution to
an existing problem.
Dimensions of leadership
Leader Follower Situation
Each dimensions influence the other. The
accomplishment of a given goal depends not
only on the personal attributes of the leader
but also on the followers' needs and the type
of situation.
“The only test of leadership is that
somebody follows”-Robert Greenleaf
Followership

FOLLOWER is not a passive agent in


leadership. A good follower leads herself by
assuming responsibilities thus influencing her
own performance.
EFFECTIVE FOLLOWERS are active,
responsible and autonomous in their behavior
and critical in their thinking without being
insubordinate or disrespectful (Hock, 1999)
Types of followers (Kellerman, 2007)
Alienated
Followers who are independent and critical
yet passive in their behavior resulting in
psychological and emotional distance with
their leaders.
Sheep
Followers who are dependent and
uncritical. They simply do as they are told
by their leaders.
Types of followers

Yes People
Uncritically reinforce the thinking and
ideas of their leaders with enthusiasm, never
questioning or challenging the leader's ideas
or proposals but dangerous to the leader
because they are most likely to give a false
positive reaction and give no warning of
potential pitfalls.
Types of followers

Survivors
The least disruptive and low risk followers.
They perpetually sample the wind. Their motto
is”Better safe than sorry”
Effective Followers
Self leaders do not require close
supervision. They recognize that to be an
effective leader, one needs good followers.
Qualities of effective followers

1. Self-management
Work well without close supervision
2. Commitment
Making progress toward achieving a goal
3. Competence and focus
Competence center on mastering skills
and focus efforts for maximum impact that will
be useful to the organization.
Qualities of effective followers

4. Courage
Independent, critical thinkers will fight
for what they believe is right.
Elements of leadership

Vision
Influence
Power
Authority
Responsibility
Accountability
Vision

Provides direction to the influence process


An Effective Vision should:
1. Appear as a simple, yet vibrant, image in
mind of the leader
2. Describe a future state, credible and
preferable to the present state
3. Acts as a bridge between the current state
and a future optimum state
Effective vision

4. Appear desirable enough to energize


5. Succeed in speaking to followers at an
emotional or spiritual level
3 critical components involve in
making vision work
1. The leader or the head of the organization
2. The members or staff of the organization
3. The environment or the community in which
they function
The 3 when work together will contribute
to the implementation of the vision,
the realization of the objectives and
the success of the organization.

I. EARLY LEADERSHIP THEORIES
These theories focus on the traits and
behaviors of leaders.
A. TRAIT THEORIES
“Great Man” Theory
Assumes that the capacity for leadership
is inherent, that great leaders are born not
made.
EARLY LEADERSHIP THEORIES

B.TRAIT THEORY
Assumes that people inherit extraordinary
qualities and traits that make them suited to be
a leader. Such traits like tireless ambition, zest
for life, great orator skills, irresistible good
looks and extreme persuasiveness.
Trait theories

INDIVIDUAL CHARACTER THEORY


assumes that these people have innate
characteristics that made them great leaders.
EX. tall, attractive, intelligent, self-reliant,
creative
Trait theories

2 Common Traits of a Leader

following are some of the traits of a leader.
1. Emotional Stability and Composure
calm, confident, and predictable

than
who the leader is.The actions of the
leaders and not their mental qualities or

through experience and observation
Behavioral theorists

KURT LEWIN (1890-1947)


An eminent psychologist who proposed
that the worker's behavior is influenced by
interactions between the personality, the
structure of the primary work group and the
socio-technical climate of the work place
(Miner, 2005)
Kurt Lewin

Categorized leadership styles as


authoritarian, democratic and laissez-faire
(Lewin, 1939)
Developed the “Field Goal Theory of
Human Behavior” (Lewin, 1951) which
believed that people act the way they do
depending on self perceptions and their
environments.
Change process (Lewin, 1951)

1st stage: Unfreezing. Overcoming inertia and


dismantling the existing “mind set”. Replace
the previous culture learned with the new one.
2nd stage: Change Occurs. Period of
confusion and transition. Old ways are being
challenged but there is no clear picture to
replace them with yet may be ready to accept
new role.
Change process

3rd stage: Re-freezing. The new mind set is


crystallizing and one's comfort level is
returning to previous levels. Have internalized
new roles and can adapt to new environment
and culture
Behavioral theorist

CHRIS ARGYRIS (1923) an organizational


psychologist who sought to study the way people in
an organization act and react with each other.
Developed the concepts:
Ladder of Inference is based on the idea that
individuals select data to process interpret and draw
conclusions from the available data.
Chris Argyris

Double Loop Learning saw learning as a


process of detecting and correcting errors that
focus on problem solving.
ALVIN TOFFLER (1928) examined
technology and its impact to the world and the
reactions and changes to the society.
Behavioral theorist

RENSIS LIKERT (1903-1981)


Developed the Likert Scale and Linking
Pin Model which use the concept of family to
characterized the desirable social interaction
between different work units
Likert

. Under this approach: Superiors and


subordinates trust each other, information
flows freely downward and laterally, high group
participation, sets realistic goals, decisions are
done through democratic process, training
human resources and control
Is done often.
Leadership and management styles

1. Exploitative-Authoritative
a. Least effective performance
b. Managers show little confidence in staff
associates and ignore their ideas

the organization with full involvement of staff
associates.
Behavioral theorists


DR. ROBERT BLAKE and JANE MOUTON
They developed the Managerial Grid
Model which attempts to conceptualize
management in terms of relations and
leadership style and 2 behavioral dimensions
1. Concern for task or production
2. Concern for people
3 things to remember on
managerial grid (Blake & Mouton)

1. Leaders lay somewhere along the


continuum of concern for productivity to
concern for people.
2. There is no “one best way” of leadership
3. Different styles are needed for different
situations
Managerial Grid(Blake & Mouton)

1. Improvised Style (1.1)


Description: Leaders have low concern for
both people and production. Referred to as
“management by default.”
Characteristics: The main concern is not to
be held responsible for any mistakes, which
results in less innovative decision and
passive
Managerial Grid(Blake & Mouton)
Results: Disorganization, dissatisfaction, disharmony
among people and behavior is directed towards
self preservation.
2. Country Club Style (1.9)
Description: Leaders has high concern for people
and low concern for production. Referred to as
“country club management
Characteristics: The leader is attentive to her
peoples' needs and has developed satisfying
relationships and work culture, but at the expense of
achieving results.
Managerial Grid(Blake & Mouton)

Country Club Style (1.9) continuation


Result:
Atmosphere is usually friendly but not
necessarily that productive. Camaraderie and
harmony are the primary considerations.
Managerial Grid(Blake & Mouton)

3. Produce or Perish Style (9.1)


Description: With high concern for production
and low concern for people. Managers are
task-oriented and autocratic
Managerial Grid(Blake & Mouton)

3. Perish- continuation
Characteristics: The leader concentrates
almost exclusively on achieving results.
People are viewed as commodity to be used
to get the job done. Communication is
unidirectional from top to bottom and the
feelings of people are ignored or suppressed.
Managerial Grid(Blake & Mouton)

 
Results: High output is achieved in a short
time but becomes costly as there is high labor
turn over.
4. Middle of the road style (5.5)
Description: Leader try to balance between
company goals and workers' needs. Also
known as management by compromise.
4. middle of the road style (5.5)

Characteristics: The leader is aware of and


wants to focus on productivity but not at the
expense of the morale of her team. Based on
a Give and take relationship.
Results: Leader compromises in which
neither production and peoples' needs are met
5. team style (9.9)
Description: Leaders rely heavily on making
employees feel as a constructive part of the
organization. Adopt the approach called team
“managers”
Characteristics: Leader pays high concern
for both people and production. Encourages
team work and commitment among
employees.
9.9

Results: The leader achieves high work


performance through leading her people to
become dedicated to the organizational goals.
There is a high degree of participation and
team work, which satisfies the basic need of
people to be involved and committed to their
work.
C. Situational or Contingency
Theories
Situational Theories stated that different
situations demand different types of
leadership.
Also called Contingency Theories because
the leadership style would be dependent on
the situation that a leader is faced at the
moment
Situational theorists


PAUL HERSEY & KENNETH BLANCHARD
Leaders should adapt their style to
followers' development style or maturity, based
on how ready and willing the followers to
perform required tasks. Their readiness
depends on their competence and motivation.
4 leadership styles that match
development levels of the
followers (Hersey & Blanchard)
S1: Directing/Telling Leaders
The leader defines the roles and tasks of
the followers and supervises them closely.
Decision are made by the leader and
announced, so communication is largely one-
way
Hersey and Blanchard

S2: Coaching/Selling Leaders


The leader still defines roles and tasks,
but seeks ideas and suggestions from the
follower. Communication is two-way and the
decisions remains the leader's prerogative.
Hersey & Blanchard
S3: Supporting/Participating Leaders
The leader facilitates and takes part day-
to-day decisions , but control is with the
follower.
S4: Delegating Leaders
Leaders are still involved in decision
making and problem solving, but control is
within the follower. The followers decide when
and how the leader will be involved.
Situational theorists
FRED FIEDLER
Developed Fiedler Contingency Model
which focused on:
1. Leader-member relation- how well the
manager and the worker get along.
2. Task structure-refers to the nature and
structure of the job to be done.
3. Position power-how much legitimate
authority does the manager possess.
Situational theorists

VICTOR HAROLD VROOM and YETTON


They suggested that the selection of a
leadership style will determine the
effectiveness of a decision making
procedure which depends upon the
aspects of the situation such as:
1. Importance of the decision and the
quality of acceptance
Vroom & Yetton

2. Amount of relevant information possessed


by the leader and subordinates.
3. Likelihood that subordinates will accept an
autocratic decision or cooperate in trying to
make a good decision if allowed to participate.
4. Amount of disagreement among
subordinates with respect to their preferred
alternatives
Vroom & Yetton

VROOM's participative model provides a set


of rules or norms that determine how
participative a leader should be when making
decisions.
After weighing up various contingencies a
leader can choose to:
1. Decide on their own, and if necessary sell
their decision.
Vroom

2. Consult some staff members individually,


gathering some informal ideas and then make
the decision themselves.
3. Consult the staff as a group, gathering their
suggestions and making the decision
themselves.

Theory of Leadership. He said that the
leader can affect the performance, satisfaction
and motivation of a group through rewards,
clarification of path to goal and removal of
obstacles in work performance. To do this, the
leader adopts a certain leadership style as
follows:
Path-goal theory (House)

1. Directive leadership: Specific advice is


given to the group and ground rules and
structure are established.
EX. clarifying expectations, specifying or
assigning certain work tasks to be followed

promoted with the group and sensitivity to
subordinates' needs is shown.
