Write 2–3 pages to support a job application in which you provide your definition of leadership, how it can positively impact an organization, and how it's different from management.
In the 21st century, the study of leadership is multidisciplinary, with contributions from the fields of history, philosophy, psychology, political science, business, and education (Northouse, 2007). There are almost as many definitions of
leadership
as there are people who have tried to define it. Although we intuitively know what the word means, it has different meaning for different people. Manning and Curtis (2012) explained, "Leadership is social influence. It means leaving a mark. It is initiating and guiding, and the result is change" (p. 2).

Healthcare is an industry much like an ecosystem whose matrix-like qualities benefit from collaboration and innovative mindsets. Traditional leadership assumptions come from industrial manufacturing where the goal is maximizing production and reducing variance. Such doctrines that employ linear top-down thinking also promote organizational culture unawareness and being unprepared for innovation and require management, not leadership (Weberg, 2012 p. 269). Invariably there will be an unforeseen situation that one must learn their way out of. Thus far our studies have been on scenarios, practices and formulas leadership with major focus on.

Part 1: The Culture Compass
As the “personality” of an organization, organizational culture has been variously defined. Culture has been a topic of great interest to organizational researchers and practitioners alike, given its apparent influence on such matters as organizational change, performance, and effectiveness. An abstract concept, organizational culture is not all that easily defined – although most of us do know it when we “see” it, or when we experience its characteristics. Much of organizational culture is tacit – it lies below the level of our awareness, as certain agreed-upon assumptions are not made explicit. Culture includes artifacts, symbols, stories, beliefs, habits, value systems, and shared assumptions (“the way we do things around here”). Of course, an organization’s culture can be made more highly complex by virtue of the many sub-cultures that make up the overall culture. Whatever culture is, its elements become most readily apparent to us during the merger of two organizations, particularly so when the culture of the two merging organizations are vastly dissimilar.

It should be something that is timely and interesting to read. It should also be something that you are able to find literature on, particularly academic literature. I want to see at least 15 different sources (peer reviewed scholarly articles (10), magazine articles, newspaper columns, books, stories, etc (5)). This paper should be no more than 15 pages (no less than 10 pages) and should be double-spaced, using 12 pt Times New Roman font and 1 inch margins on all sides.
Here is a sample of what the paper should look like:

Servant Leadership in Ppractical Iindustries and Ccultural Pperspectives: Literature Review
I. Introduction
The important role of leadership is considering as a keyword to create success in the organization. The function of leadership is as vital as the role of management and they support together to increase the effectiveness of the organization, especially in fluctuation of the economic era in recently. Servant leadership is one leadership style based on ethical, pro-social or people-centered behaviors (van Dierendonck, 2011; Chiniara & Bentein, 2015). According to Spears, there are four elements of insights on leadership, which are service, stewardship, spirit, and servant-leadership (1998).

Moreover, servant-leadership is an interesting topic to investigating a variety of parts of society.

According to Liden et al. agreed that majority of studies about servant leadership are limited to gain across different types of organizations and cultures (2008).

1) What are the ethical issues? Do they affect Christianity?
2) Do ethical issues influence decision making religious issues?
3) How does understanding ethical issues promote Christian understanding and improve coexistence with other non-Christians in society?
Ethical issues in leadership have become a common challenge, thus posing a new challenge to the leadership. A leader is always faced with an ethical dilemma while playing their role in a leadership position. Ethical issues refer to complicated circumstances that involve one to decide on what to do and what not to do. This process involves a mental conflict between moral paradoxes (Shapiro, 2016). The gap is created when we have to decide on conduct in a way that is contrary to what we are used to or what we feel its right. Thus, due to complexity and its application in all part of the operation, ethical leadership become a topic of increasing prominence Christian faith and leadership.

1. The industrial age is giving
way to the knowledge era
The era of knowledge-production and knowledge management is
emerging with unparalleled significance in organizations. Facilitating
learning, creative, and adaptive capacity becomes a central leader task
that reflects the “dynamic relationship between the bureaucratic,
administrative functions of the organization and the emergent, informal
dynamics of complex adaptive systems (CAS).”
(Uhl-Bien, Marion, & McKelvey, 2007, p. 298)

2. Traditional hierarchical
models do not express all
there is to structure
A more effective use of understanding hierarchy is to view it as
supporting organizational members instead of merely commanding
them. Instead of reflecting the hierarchical needs of the leader to
maintain power and control, long-term viability of organizations is
related to a collectively led dynamic system “where bottom-up
structuration emerges.” (Osborn & Hunt, 2007, p. 319)

organizational structures
Antecedents of cultural diversity are a significant consideration when
talking about global leadership and change (Hofstede, 2001; House et al, 2004).
Leaders with a global mindset will develop forward-thinking organizational
structures reflective of the ability “to influence individuals, groups,
organizations, and systems that are unlike the leader’s.”

Part 1: The Culture Compass
As the “personality” of an organization, organizational culture has been variously defined. Culture has been a topic of great interest to organizational researchers and practitioners alike, given its apparent influence on such matters as organizational change, performance, and effectiveness. An abstract concept, organizational culture is not all that easily defined – although most of us do know it when we “see” it, or when we experience its characteristics. Much of organizational culture is tacit – it lies below the level of our awareness, as certain agreed-upon assumptions are not made explicit. Culture includes artifacts, symbols, stories, beliefs, habits, value systems, and shared assumptions (“the way we do things around here”). Of course, an organization’s culture can be made more highly complex by virtue of the many sub-cultures that make up the overall culture. Whatever culture is, its elements become most readily apparent to us during the merger of two organizations, particularly so when the culture of the two merging organizations are vastly dissimilar.

Servant Leadership in Ppractical Iindustries and Ccultural Pperspectives: Literature Review
I. Introduction
The important role of leadership is considering as a keyword to create success in the organization. The function of leadership is as vital as the role of management and they support together to increase the effectiveness of the organization, especially in fluctuation of the economic era in recently. Servant leadership is one leadership style based on ethical, pro-social or people-centered behaviors (van Dierendonck, 2011; Chiniara & Bentein, 2015). According to Spears, there are four elements of insights on leadership, which are service, stewardship, spirit, and servant-leadership (1998). TIn this literature review focuses on servant-leadership as it is a core factor to create leadership and affects other factors in the practice nowadays.
Moreover, servant-leadership is an interesting topic to investigating a variety of parts of society. However, the link between servant-leadership and other factors is limited and how servant leadership appears in practice in different countries is questionable. According to Liden et al. agreed that majority of studies about servant leadership are limited to gain across different types of organizations and cultures (2008).

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
