The idea on this presentation is largely drawn from the result of the research study commissioned by both the Financial Times and the Special Libraries Association (SLA) in 2013.
In order to apply the so called “modern leadership techniques”, it would be best to explore first and have a better understanding of the evolving value of information management in today’s society based on the facts that were the result of the study gathered by Financial Times and SLA.

The managerial grid model (1964) is a situational leadership model developed by Robert R. Blake and Jane Mouton. This model originally identified five different leadership styles based on the concern for people and the concern for production. The optimal leadership style in this model is based on Theory Y.
Leadership comes in many forms and not one size ever fits all. It is more common that several sizes fit one person. What I mean by that is that a successful leader will have many different styles to use for differing situations. In this presentation the participants will leave with an understanding of many leadership styles and will have the ability to select which works best for them in which situation and with which type of employee.
Today, we want to take the styles explored by Daniel Goldman in his article “Leadership That Gets Results” and further expand on some of the key aspects of each style, analyzing the advantages and disadvantages and how it can work for your particular organization.
Leadership skills and its impact on organizational performancePreet Gill
Introduction and definition of leadership, leadership styles, how to measure organizational performance, and also explained the relationship between leadership styles and organizational performance.
DISCUSSION TOPIC 1: Leadership Competencies
READING 1.
Robert House (1996) initially developed Pathgoal theory to explain workplace leadership. The theory builds on two work motivation theories of goal setting and expectancy theory. Goal setting theory is based on the idea that an effective way to motivate employees is to set challenging goals that are both realistic and offer a reward for completion. Expectancy theory helps explain why people work hard to attain goals and suggest employees will work hard if they believe completing their goals will lead to a reward such as a bonus or promotion and that the behaviors they engage in are likely to help them meet their goal. Employees who do not value the reward associated with the goal or believe that a particular behavior will help then reach that goal they will not be motivated to reach their goals (House, 1996).
Pathgoal theory also suggests that effective leaders are the ones who can help there employees reach the goals of the organization and that the leaders have the responsibility to provide the employees the necessary tools, including information and support to reach those goals. Leaders must help their followers with goal attainment by removing obstacles that might prevent them from reaching their goals. It important to consider that pathgoal theory is a contingency theory and an effective leader must adopt a style of leadership that matches the needs of the employees in any given situation. There are four main leadership styles identified by the theory that includes Supportive, Directive, Participative, and Achievement oriented (Avolio, 2007). Supportive leadership requires the leader to identify with the needs of the subordinate and that they create a positive atmosphere for them to work in. Directive leadership requires that a leader give their employees clear guidelines and let them know what is expected of them by enforcing rules and procedures. Participative leadership requires that a leader consult with their subordinates and consider their opinions and suggestions when determining the strategy to meet their goals. Finally, the Achievement oriented style uses a method in which challenging goals are set to emphasize excellence and building confidence that the employees are capable of working to high standards. It is also important to recognize that the style of leadership will depend on environmental factors such as the nature of the task and internal factors such as the experience and abilities of the employees.
For the situation given in this week’s discussion supportive leadership would probably not be the best choice. This is because supportive leadership is most effective when the tasks are somewhat routine, boring, or even dangerous. This type of leadership helps remove negative aspects of the job. Directive leadership is best applied to situations in which there is much uncertainty within the working environment and direction helps clarify and redu.

working correctly and a new one must be established (authoritarian).
Asking for their ideas and input on creating a new procedure
(participative). Delegating tasks in order to implement the new
procedure (delegative).
Forces that influence the style to be used included:
How much time is available.
Are relationships based on respect and trust or on disrespect?
Who has the information — you, your employees, or both?
How well your employees are trained and how well you know the task.
Internal conflicts.
