The Importance of Leadership
Consider…
Maintaining competitive success or even surviving over long periods of time is difficult for companies of any size.
SO how much credit (or blame) does a leader deserve?
©McGraw-Hill Education.
See the chapter opener “learning from mistakes.” When things don’t go well, much of the failure of an organization can also, rightfully, be attributed to the leader. Introduced are the concepts of romantic leadership versus the resource perspective. Even innovative firms struggle in the marketplace if they do not anticipate and respond proactively to changes in the environment. Today’s leaders face a large number of complex challenges in the global marketplace. In considering how much credit (or blame) they deserve, two perspectives of leadership immediately come to mind: the “romantic” and “external control” perspectives.

Two Perspectives of Leadership
External control perspective:
External forces determine the organization’s success.
Economic downturns
OR
Romantic view:
A leader is the key force in the organization’s success.
Steve Jobs
©McGraw-Hill Education.
External control view of leadership = situations in which external forces – where the leader has limited influence – determine the organization’s success.
Romantic view of leadership = situations in which the leader is the key force determining the organization’s success – or lack thereof.

Leaders Can Make a Difference
Be proactive - anticipate change.
Refine strategies continually.
Be aware of external opportunities and threats.
Understand thoroughly the firm’s resources and capabilities.
Make strategic management both a process and a way of thinking throughout the organization.

BUT leaders CAN make a difference.

Corporate Governance
This document discusses corporate governance and the roles and responsibilities of boards of directors and top management. It describes how boards oversee management and strategy, their composition, and impact of laws like Sarbanes-Oxley. Trends include boards taking a more active role in strategy and oversight, and expectations that boards balance profits with social responsibilities. Effective CEOs articulate strategic vision, set high standards, and inspire confidence in achieving them.
STRATEGY AND STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT PROCESS.pptx
Strategy involves setting a direction for an organization to achieve its goals. It bridges the gap between the present and desired future state. The strategic management process involves assessing the internal and external environment, formulating strategies, implementing strategies, and evaluating performance. Key aspects of the process include developing a vision, mission and objectives, analyzing strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, selecting strategies, and monitoring strategies and taking corrective actions. The overall purpose is to align organizational activities and resources to gain a competitive advantage.
Boards that lead
In the year 2002, Warren Buffett made an admission that he had not been as vigilant as he should have been in his role as Director of the various subsidiaries of his holding company, Berkshire Hathaway. In a letter to the shareholders he wrote “ Too often I was silent when management made proposals that I judged to be counter to the interest of the shareholders. In those cases, collegiality trumped independence and a certain social atmosphere presides in boardrooms where it becomes impolitic to challenge the Chief Executive.
Kevin Sharer, Chairman of Amgen, the US biotech company, portrayed a very different relationship between board and chief executive. “ Working with the board is vital, complex, and beyond your prior experience. It is among the most complex human relationships, especially if you are the chairman, when you are their boss, and they are your boss. Get the relationship right or it will hurt you.
These two very different experiences open a new book, Boards that Lead- When to take charge, When to Partner and When to stay out of the way. The central premise of the books is a plea. “ Governing boards should take more active leadership of the enterprises, not just monitor its management?
The growing complexity of markets and strategy, the authors say, is one of the biggest challenges for board members. It also means that they cannot afford to sit back and rubber stamp executive’s plans.
Boards often fail to do their job, they point out, for example failing to do their due diligence. They cite the example of Yahoo’s Chief Executive Scott Thompson. After a few months in the post, it was discovered that he had listed a degree in both accounting and computer science, but had actually earned only the first.
A good book to read move from Delivering to Leading.

Governance Paper
The document discusses governance, which refers to the structure, relationships, and processes of authority, responsibility, and accountability within an organization. Good governance involves clear definitions of roles and responsibilities to ensure accountability. The document outlines key aspects of governance structures, including the relationship between the board of directors, CEO, staff, and other roles. It also describes legal duties of boards of directors such as loyalty, honesty, and care.
Assessment centres
The document discusses executive development and the importance of assessment centers in identifying and developing future leaders. It notes that many organizations struggle to find qualified successors for retiring senior managers. Assessment centers aim to address this by systematically evaluating individuals' competencies against the requirements for senior management roles. They provide objective assessments through exercises observed by external assessors and identify development needs through competency reports. The document advocates that assessment centers should be competency-based, utilize best practices such as those employed by Barker Hoffmann, and be part of a long-term executive development program to ensure organizations have a pipeline of sustainable leadership.
Strategic Leadership.pptx
Strategic leadership involves three key elements: strategic thinking, acting, and influence. It is concerned with creating sustainable competitive advantage for an organization over the long term. Strategic leadership differs from general leadership in that it has a broad scope that impacts the entire organization, its impact is felt over long periods of time, and it often involves significant organizational change. Strategic leaders are primarily concerned with higher levels of the organization and ensuring its future competitiveness through developing and implementing effective strategies. Strategic decision making is an important part of strategic leadership, as strategic decisions are rare, consequential, and directive for the organization.
pesonal value
This document discusses values and strategy. It defines values as conceptions of what is desirable for individuals and groups. Values are influenced throughout life and shape how managers develop strategy. Strategy is a plan to strengthen an organization's position and achieve goals. The document outlines six types of values and notes that corporate strategy must be explicit, shared, and consider opportunities, risks and resources. Personal values influence strategic decisions and a strategy may fail if it does not align with employee values. Managers can self-analyze to understand how their values shape strategic thinking.
assignment 1 management accounting by Dr. ZackZaki
The document discusses three key roles of a manager according to Henry Mintzberg: interpersonal, informational, and decisional.
The interpersonal role involves figurehead, leader, and liaison duties in interacting with internal and external individuals. The informational role covers monitoring, disseminating, and representing the organization as a spokesperson.
The decisional role requires managers to take on entrepreneur, conflict handler, resource allocator, and negotiator responsibilities. Managers must make daily decisions that impact the organization.
GRC00116[1]
The document discusses empowering corporate boards through improving governance practices and board resources. It finds that while boards focus on oversight, CEOs want boards to provide strategic guidance. However, boards lack resources and support for their duties. The governance office, led by the corporate secretary, could evolve to better support boards. This would involve providing education, insights into best practices, and tools to help boards add more value to business strategy and performance. For this to occur, CEOs must empower governance offices with mandates, resources, and status to act as a strategic advisory body for the board.
