This document discusses various approaches to leadership. It describes trait theories that see leadership as dependent on personality traits, and behavioral theories that focus on what leaders do rather than their inherent qualities. Situational approaches argue that leadership effectiveness depends on matching style to contextual factors like task structure. Follower-centered theories examine the behaviors and mindsets of followers. Transformational leadership aims to inspire and intellectually stimulate followers towards a shared vision through charisma and consideration of individuals. The document contrasts transactional and transformational styles and cautions that charismatic approaches can enable negative or abusive leadership if not balanced with other perspectives.
Teams are important in organizations because they allow a group of people with complementary skills to work together towards a common goal. There are various types of teams, including formal teams created by the organization, informal groups that emerge within the structure, cross-functional teams to improve integration, and problem-solving teams to address specific issues. For a team to be effective it must achieve high performance, member satisfaction, and viability over time. There are typically five stages of team development: forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. A team's effectiveness depends on inputs like the nature of the task, team size and composition, and dynamics within the group.
The survey found that organizations are experiencing more issues from unprofessional but legal behaviors like bullying than from illegal behaviors. While many organizations provide training to managers on handling employee concerns, the training is ineffective as employees still do not trust that management will properly address their concerns. To truly address unprofessional conduct, organizations need to implement a comprehensive values-based approach and ensure managers model the desired values in their daily interactions with employees. Regular communication of values through leadership modeling is needed, not just periodic newsletters.
The hadith Gabriel is an authentic hadith and is of great importance because it presents the dimensions of Islam that are Islam, Ihsan and Iman.
ISLAM:
Islam is regarded as one of the dimensions of religion that it literally means “peace through submission”. This dimension refers to the teachings that Allah has bestowed us. It also refers to the submission of one’s wills to their lord. It is based on the following:
• Tauheed and Rislilat
• To deliver the obligatory prayers
• Observe the fast and pay the zakat
• To perform the Hajj pilgrimage
This level is considered to be the foundation of Islamic faith. Quran explicitly presents the emphasis on these foundations. Apart from the Quran there is almost an equal emphasis in the hadith literature. There are many hadiths that clearly depicts the importance and necessity of these practices in Islam.
Prayers are the obligatory practices that Islam has enforced on the Muslims. Prayers hold a prestige status in Islam and Muslims are encouraged to offer prayers. Islam designates a dignified status to the ones who offer regular prayers. "If a person prays sincerely for martyrdom,
It is granted even though he is not hurt.” (Sahih Muslim). This hadith clearly depicts that highest status an individual can achieve is through prayers only.
Fast is one of the unique moral and spiritual characteristic of Islam, literally it means to abstain or to stop oneself. The importance of the month of Ramadan can be depicted by this hadith:
“When there comes the month of Ramadan, the gates of mercy are opened, and the gates of Hell are locked and the devils are chained” (Sahih Muslim)
Zakat is one of the five pillars of the Islam and is expected to be paid by all financially stable Muslims. This act is highly encouraged by Allah Himself and there is also a great emphasis on it throughout the hadith literature.
This hadith narrated by Asma “Do not withhold your money, (for if you did so) Allah would with-hold His blessings from you” (Sahih Bukhari) depicts the importance of giving in Islam.
Hajj is an act of worship and is considered a fundamental practice in Islam. This is regarded as the fifth pillar of Islam. Hajj is mandatory for all Muslim.
The hadith narrated from Ibn Umar (RA) that “the Prophet (PBUH) said, “Islam is built on five (pillars): Worshipping Allah and denying all others (worshipped) besides Him, establishing the Salat, paying the Zakat, going on pilgrimage (Hajj) to the House (Ka’bah), and fasting in Ramadan.” (Sahih Muslim) presents that hajj is one of the fundamental pillars of the Islam.
In addition to this there is another hadith that clearly represents the importance of hajj in Islam. This hadith is narrated by Narrated by Abu Huraira “the Prophet was asked, "Which is the best deed?" He said, "To believe in Allah and His Apostle." He was then asked, "Which is the next (in goodness)?" He said, "To participate in Jihad in Allah's Cause." H
Richard L. Daft addresses themes and issues directly relevant to both the everyday demands and significant challenges facing businesses today. Comprehensive coverage helps develop managers able to look beyond traditional techniques and ideas to tap into a full breadth of management skills. With the best in proven management and new competencies that harness creativity, D.A.F.T. is Management!
The document discusses attitudes and job satisfaction. It defines attitudes as having three components - cognition, affect, and behavior. Job satisfaction is evaluated as a positive feeling about one's job. The major causes of job satisfaction discussed are personality and pay (up to a comfortable living wage). When employees are dissatisfied, they may respond actively like quitting or passively like decreased performance. High job satisfaction is linked to improved performance, lower turnover, and increased organizational citizenship behaviors. However, levels of satisfaction can vary across cultures.
Presentation on traditional organizations, their management and the way they cope with change. How can weaknesses in innovation, learning ability and cooperation be eliminated?

Using Hidden Networks to Identify and Develop High PotentialsMaya Townsend
~~Slides from May 17, 2012 presentation at the North East HR Association conference~~
How often have you realized, only after an employee has left the company, how critical he or she actually was to the business? Have you ever found your company in dire straits because key positions have been empty for too long? Or have you hired a promising new executive only to see that person fail after just a short time on the job?
If so, you’re not alone. Sixty-four percent of new executives hired from the outside fail at their jobs, according to HR Review. And companies regularly fail to recognize the value of individuals or roles until they’re gone.
Succession planning helps improve the situation. But the data most companies use to make decisions about development and succession is incomplete.
The missing piece is the organization’s networks. Networks show the hidden relationships within organizations and identify deeply trusted employees, subject matter experts, innovation leaders, effective implementers, and problem solvers. They show who is deeply trusted, who people go to for leadership, and who might shine on their performance reviews but can’t work well with others.
Knowledge of the information embedded in networks can help leaders identify high potentials more effectively, make better decisions about succession, and craft more accurate and effective development plans.

Centralization & decentralization of authorityanandlihinar
Centralization refers to reserving authority at central points in an organization, such as reserving decision-making power and operating authority at top levels of management. Decentralization is the systematic delegation of authority to all levels of management. While centralization allows for focused vision and fast execution, it places a heavy burden on top executives. Decentralization empowers employees, relieves this burden, enables more efficient localized decision-making, and makes expansion easier, though coordination can be more difficult to maintain across divisions. Organizations must consider the tradeoffs between these approaches to structuring authority.
This document discusses organizational behavior and why it is important. It covers topics such as what organizations are like as work settings, the nature of managerial work, and how organizational behavior is studied. Some key points include that organizational behavior is the interdisciplinary study of human behavior in organizations, it uses scientific methods and models to understand groups and dynamics, and managerial work involves long hours, communication, and balancing tasks.

John Bradford gives a presentation on identifying and addressing leadership challenges, referred to as "the elephant in the room". He discusses how business pressures are compressing leaders' roles, time, and ability to be present. This impacts employee engagement. Bradford presents a model using "touch points" - brief interactions where leaders can connect with others on an issue. Effective touch points require being approachable and aspirational. He promotes using assessments to evaluate how others perceive a leader's competencies and effectiveness. This provides awareness to prevent potential leadership problems.

Workforce diversity considers human differences such as gender, age, race, and disability to promote inclusion.

Based on Henry Mintzberg’s classic study on the ten key roles of a manager.
Ambition, motivation, honesty, self confidence and a high need for achievement are key traits that leaders have.Personality tests that are administered to job applicants as part of the interview process for key managerial positions are a direct application of trait theories of leadership.
For example, consider an experienced and well-trained supervisor of a group manufacturing a part for a personal computer. The leader is highly supported by his group members and can grant raises and make hiring and firing decisions. This supervisor has very high situational control and is operating in situation 1 in Figure 13.2.Those leaders operating in situations 2 and 3 would have high situational control, though lower than the production supervisor.
Each situation in the model is a unique combination of leader-member relations, task structure, and position power.The task-motivated leader has greater group effectiveness whether situational control is very high or very low.
House proposed four types of leadership behavior: directive, supportive, achievement oriented, and participative.Contingency situations are focused on either the subordinates attributes or the work-setting attributed.
Leader adjusts either the task behaviors, such providing more direction, or relationship behavior, providing socio-emotional support.Suggests that there is no single, best way to lead.
The model requires the leader to diagnose the demands of the situation implement the response that is most effective in the situation. A ‘telling’ style is advisable for followers with low readiness. Includes providing more instruction and close supervision.As readiness increases, leaders should move to a ‘selling’ style, ‘participating’, and ‘delegating’ style. Delegating is most appropriate for followers who are able and willing to take responsibility for what needs to be done.
