A definition and proposed solution for the problem of Toxic Leadership in the business world by establishing consequences for all licensed managers, CEO\'s and the like.
There are several reasons why women are underrepresented in elite leadership roles. First, women's family responsibilities often force them to leave their careers voluntarily, and it can be difficult to return or regain their previous status. Additionally, women are less likely than men to promote themselves for leadership positions due to gender biases and social pressures. Finally, prevalent gender stereotypes associate women with communal rather than agentic leadership traits, resulting in prejudice that views women as less qualified than men for elite roles.
This document discusses discrimination against women in the workplace. It notes that discrimination arises from societal norms that promote male superiority. Women often face subtle discrimination, such as being passed over for promotions if pregnant. The document also discusses how discrimination prevents women from achieving high-ranking positions and affects their performance and motivation. It argues organizations should adopt reforms to remove barriers against women and promote diversity.
This document discusses gender differences in leadership styles. It outlines that while past research has found some differences between male and female leadership styles, the differences are becoming less pronounced over time as social roles change. Specifically, women tend to have a more transformational leadership style that focuses on relationships and motivation, while men tend toward a more transactional style centered on performance. However, effective leadership depends more on the situation than on gender. The conclusion is that while research on gender differences continues, leadership style is individual and not defined by gender alone.
Gender Stereotypes in Leadership_ How Threatening Are They_.pdfaliyahregacho
This document summarizes a thesis by Valerie N. Streets that examines the impact of gender stereotypes on women's leadership performance. Specifically, it investigates whether stereotype threat affects women's leadership abilities. The thesis reviews literature on women's underrepresentation in management positions, gender stereotyping, and stereotype threat. It proposes experimentally manipulating stereotype threat in a leadership task to test its effects on women's performance and affective reactions. The study aims to expand understanding of how stereotyping may contribute to the gender gap in leadership roles.
Women’s vs. men’s leadership abilitiesTicau Stefan
The document discusses research on gender differences in leadership abilities. Some studies have found small differences in leadership styles between men and women, with women more likely to adopt participative styles and men more directive styles. However, other research has found no significant differences in leadership behaviors or effectiveness between men and women. The findings are mixed and inconclusive, with some evidence of small differences attributed to gender roles but also studies showing similarities when controlling for other factors. More research is still needed to better understand potential differences.
Followership refers to the role that individuals play in supporting a leader within an organization, team, or group. Effective followers are described as enthusiastic, intelligent, ambitious, and self-reliant. Robert Kelley identified four main qualities of effective followers: self-management, commitment, competence, and courage. Kelley's model of follower behavior categorizes followers as sheep (passive and dependent), yes people (active but dependent), survivors (passive but independent), alienated followers (passive and independent), and effective followers (active and independent).
This document summarizes a research paper that explores assumptions about women in sports management. It analyzes scholarly literature and interviews 6 women in sports management. The research aims to understand 3 common assumptions: 1) women are perceived as too soft/tough, 2) lack of mentorship limits career growth, and 3) women must prove themselves more. The interviews found assumptions 2 and 3 challenge both genders. Women felt respected. The research concludes societal structures, not leadership styles, need to change to encourage young women and minorities to pursue sports management careers.

This document discusses how gender stereotypes prevent women's advancement in organizations. It describes two types of gender stereotypes - descriptive stereotypes about perceived differences between men and women, and prescriptive stereotypes about how each gender should behave. These stereotypes lead to biased evaluations that penalize women for not fitting the stereotypical norms, as well as devaluation of women's actual performance through ambiguous evaluation criteria. While the document analyzes how stereotypes create barriers for women's careers, it does not propose specific solutions to address the problem.
Bringin' Home the Bacon: Transgender Men's Experiences in the WorkplaceCaroline Duble
This document summarizes a thesis about transgender men's experiences in the workplace. Through surveys and interviews, the researcher examines how factors like support systems, relationships with coworkers, state laws, and perceptions of masculinity impact transgender men's workplace satisfaction. The study found that having supportive friends and partners, as well as supportive coworkers who respect their gender identity, led to higher job satisfaction among transgender male respondents. It also discusses how legal protections or lack thereof in different states can influence transgender workers' experiences and options. Overall, the research aims to shed light on the experiences of transgender men in order to reduce marginalization, particularly in the workplace.
This document discusses gender differences in leadership styles and effectiveness. It notes that while men and women can be equally effective leaders, women are more likely to use democratic and transformational leadership styles, whereas men are more likely to use negative incentives. The document also examines the "glass ceiling" and "labyrinth" metaphors for the barriers that women face in advancing to top leadership positions compared to men, despite gaining more education and experience. It analyzes potential explanations like gender differences, human capital factors, and prejudice, as well as strategies for closing the gender gap at both the individual and societal levels.
Barbara Kellerman is a lecturer at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government who studies leadership and followership. She identifies five types of followers based on their level of engagement: Isolates, who are completely detached; Bystanders, who observe but do not participate; Participants, who are engaged in some way; Activists, who feel strongly about their leader and act accordingly; and Diehards, who are prepared to die for their cause or leader. Kellerman analyzes followers based on their rank or behavior relative to their leader. Her typology aims to understand different levels of follower engagement and the implications for leaders.
The document discusses gender differences in leadership effectiveness and the barriers that women face in achieving leadership positions. While men and women are equally effective leaders overall, women tend to be more effective in leadership roles that align with stereotypical feminine traits, like education and social services. However, women are underrepresented in top leadership positions due to factors like human capital differences related to domestic responsibilities, gender differences in self-promotion, and prejudice stemming from perceptions that leadership requires stereotypically masculine traits. The "glass ceiling" refers to the invisible barrier preventing women's advancement, and its persistence is related to a lack of recognition of women's business, strategic, and financial acumen.
This document provides an introduction and literature review for a paper examining the disproportionate suspension of Black boys from schools through the lens of Critical Race Theory. It begins by outlining data showing Black boys are suspended at much higher rates than white boys, even when controlling for similar offenses. It then discusses several theories that provide context for this problem, such as how schools reproduce social inequalities. Next, it introduces three key aspects of Critical Race Theory in education - the lack of rights for Black students, negative perceptions of Black boys, and their exclusion from equitable treatment and opportunities. The document argues these CRT frameworks can help explain why Black boys continue to face disproportionate suspension despite evidence they are no more disruptive than white students.
Black males and the opportunity gaps closing the dividemacheop
This document discusses opportunities and opportunity gaps for black males. It begins with an introduction asking participants to reflect on opportunities they have been afforded or denied and the impact. The document then outlines the following training goals: 1) Frame opportunity gaps for black boys and discuss solutions 2) Develop a shared understanding of what impacts work with black boys 3) Build critical questions to inform continued work with black boys. It goes on to discuss specific opportunity gaps such as discipline, achievement, experience and training, resources, curriculum, and innovation gaps. It discusses causes of disproportionate discipline of black boys and best practices to address these issues.
Organizational citizenship behavior is one which goes beyond the basic requirements of Job, to a large extent discretionary & is a benefit to the organization
The document discusses the trait approach to leadership. It describes how early research in the early 20th century focused on identifying traits of great historical leaders. However, later research in the mid-20th century challenged this view, finding no universal set of traits. More recent research has associated certain personality traits with perceptions of leadership, including intelligence, self-confidence, determination, integrity and sociability. The Five-Factor model also links the "Big Five" personality traits of neuroticism, extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness to leadership. The trait approach focuses on identifying innate qualities of leaders rather than followers or situations.
This document discusses how individual behavior in organizations is influenced by biographical characteristics and abilities. It provides details on the effects of age, gender, marital status, and tenure on employee turnover, absenteeism, productivity, and job satisfaction. Intellectual abilities that influence job performance are also examined. The document then explores theories of learning, including classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and social learning theory. Finally, it discusses methods organizations can use to shape employee behavior, such as positive and negative reinforcement, punishment, and extinction.
This document summarizes an organizational behavior final project submitted by five students. The project examines the relationship between job satisfaction, organizational justice, and organizational citizenship behaviors.

One in three workers observes misconduct such as lying, withholding information, abuse, or discrimination. However, two in five workers do not report misconduct due to fears of retaliation or being viewed as a troublemaker. Employees care about ethics and want their employers to do what is right rather than just what is profitable. While leaders perceive ethics more positively in their organizations, lower level employees report feeling pressure to compromise standards and see more frequent misconduct, especially where there is regular pressure to break rules. When leaders model ethical behavior, employees feel less pressure to commit misconduct and report higher satisfaction.
Detoxing Corporate America II (With Further Capstone Research And Slides)Christy Parker
The document discusses the negative impacts of toxic leadership in corporate America. It begins by defining toxic leadership as those who are maladjusted, malicious, and inflict pain on subordinates. It then outlines the consequences of toxic leadership, such as decreased creativity, collaboration, and productivity. The document uses the example of Enron to show how toxic leadership can destroy an entire organization. It compares leadership in the military and other professions that require licensing and certification. The document argues that corporate America is missing these same accountability measures and calls for research into establishing boards and standards to regulate leadership training and prevent toxic behaviors.

ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOUR AND TEAM WORK.pptxSYEDRAZA56411
A newly built 100-bed private hospital is looking to finalize its organizational structure. Key leadership positions like the medical director, hospital administrator, and heads of major departments have already been appointed by the CEO and board of directors. The task is to suggest additional members that should be added to the hierarchy and which proposed positions would not provide value. Additionally, an existing 250-bed private hospital has been experiencing financial losses and decreased patient confidence since a new CEO took over 11 months ago. Issues include low staff morale, overworked nurses, and conflict between doctors and nursing. The organizational culture and behaviors need to be assessed and potentially modified.

Evidence showed changes in personal management styles, acceptance of limitations, and detachment from issues. The organization also changed with more trust in management, inclusion of wellness and culture in meetings, and changed language around these topics. The conclusion is that dialogic approaches and focusing on life-enhancing values can help reduce toxicity and improve employee and organizational wellness.

This document appears to be from a seminar given by leadership coach Leda Karabela at Stanford Medical School. The seminar discusses several topics related to change, including:
- Physician morale is low due to loss of autonomy, bureaucratic red tape, and emotional burnout.
- Younger generations like Millennials value confidence, connection, and openness to change, while older generations are seen to have a better work ethic.
- Finding work you enjoy and connecting with a community can help deal with "tricky" situations. Different leadership styles should be considered depending on the person and situation.
- Adapting to change and having an open perspective are important for individuals and organizations.

2. What Toxic Leadership Is
• Leadership by those who are “maladjusted,
malcontent…malevolent…[and] malicious.”
• Those who “rise to their situations in life over the
carcasses of those who work for them.”
• Leaders who by inflicting “pain…[strip] people of
their self esteem.”
3. Consequences of Toxic Leadership
• Humiliation, belittling & berating behavior destroys creativity,
collaboration and job satisfaction.
• Public embarrassment and harassment lead to mental and emotional
breakdowns and deviant behavior by subordinates
• Productivity slowed down or halted as subordinates try to emotionally
recover or exhibit deviant behavior to stop from being controlled (e.g. –
depression, fear, sabotage, absenteeism, and withholding effort)
• Destroys group morale over time with broken trust in the leaders ability to
cope with and work well with others
4. Enron: Organizational Break Down
• Bullying, “explosive tantrums”,
relentless criticism, disrespect,
ruthlessness, callousness, shunning,
manipulation, coercion, control and
arrogance.
• Brutal appraisal system called “rank
and yank”
• Enron corporation destroyed itself
systemically, along with the
financial firm Arthur Anderson
• Further research is needed to learn
how this can be prevented in the
future
5. The Army: A Change from Top Down
• Lower levels of toxic leadership in last 10 to 20 years due to creation of
Fieldbook 22-100
• 360 degree evaluations & climate surveys pros and cons
• Systemic and mandatory handbooks, training and certification for every
level of leadership
• An understanding of how toxic leadership destroys units and productivity
• Board of Review with strong punitive ability/consistently applied to
prevent inappropriate (toxic) leadership.
6. Military & Professional World
Compared
Military Toxic Level
• 1/3 to 1/2 of military
audiences stated they have
had a toxic leader (Reed,
2010)
Professional World Toxic Level
• 1/3 to 85% range of people
working in the corporate
world stated having toxic
leaders
• 90% of nurses reported
verbal abuse by physicians
• 100% of banking profession
stated having had a toxic
leader
– (Reed, 2009; Reed,2010)
7. Current Business Ethical Guidelines
• EEOC – prevents discrimination only
• BBB – oversees “consumer-to-business” and “business-to-
business” complaints only
• Legal Court System – No capacity to systemically prevent
psychologically abusive leaders and managers from retaining
leadership positions
8. Other Professions Compared
• Required Licensing (e.g. – psychotherapy,
physician, professor, accountant, engineer,
nurse, police officer, pilot, lawyer…)
• Training and Certification (e.g. – (above)
including trades as construction, tile setting,
brick laying, cabinetry making…)
• codes of ethics strictly enforced by an objective
board of ethics to ensure they do “no harm”
9. What Corporate World Is Missing
• Code of Ethics not systemic throughout corporate
America
• Profession of leadership and management has no
current law mandating licensing, training or
certification
• No objective Board of Ethics
10. Review Boards &
Systemic Objective Enforcement
Army
• Army Review Board Agency
provides unified, objective
governing body
• Mandatory training for each
level of leadership
• Required certification
• Unethical and abusive
behavior punished
Medical Field
• State medical boards
• Medical Agency & Hospital
Boards
• Regular mandatory re-
training and certification
within specialty
• Unethical and abusive
behavior punished by
objective system
11. Call for Research
• Government Leadership &
Management Act?
• State Board of Leadership &
Management?
• Independent training and
certifying agencies
• Mandatory licensing, training
and certification with annual
or regular renewal
12. Findings
• Business & corporate world have no adequate system in place to diminish
or prevent toxic leadership systemically throughout corporate America.
• Almost every other profession in the US has mandated licensing, training
& certification backed by boards who uphold and objectively punish
unethical behavior as outlined in their codes of ethics or codes of conduct.
• Unethical behavior including toxic leadership in the work place will not be
controlled and diminished in corporate America until some punishable
form of standardized licensing, training and certification becomes
systemically required, in order to hold certain positions of leadership and
management accountable.
