In the 1970s, Benjamin Tregoe developed the concept of the driving force as a way to think about an organization’s strategic intent.
“the primary determinant of the products and services an organization will and will not offer and the markets (customers, consumers, and geographies it will and will not serve.”

“the primary determinant of the products and services an organization will and will not offer and the markets (customers, consumers, and geographies it will and will not serve.”
As the number of strategic dimensions and corresponding initiatives increases, so does the pressure on leadership. In periods of rapid change, organizations require bold strategies and strong leadership at all levels if it is to succeed.
The concepts of 'what is a leader' and 'how leaders are created' have been evolving over time.

Managing across cultures-Lecture-04(Helen Deresky)Shifur Rahman
Employees of MNCs are expected to “fit in.”
Regardless of the external environment, managers and employees must understand internal culture to be successful.
Organizational Culture is the shared values and beliefs that enable members to understand their roles in and the norms of the organization.
According to one survey of senior executives, 76% believe their organizations need to develop global leadership capabilities, but only 7% think they are currently doing so very effectively.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.

LEADERSHIP FOUNDATIONS
• Leadership Behaviors and Styles:
– Authoritarian: use of work-centered behavior designed to
ensure task accomplishment.
– Paternalistic: use of work-centered behavior coupled with
protective employee centered concern
– Participative: use of both work or task centered and people
centered approaches to leading subordinates.
11. www.StudsPlanet.com
LEADERSHIP FOUNDATIONS
• Theories X, Y and Z (philosophical background):
– Theory X: A manager who believes that people are
basically lazy and that coercion and threats of
punishment often are necessary to get them to work.
– Theory Y: A manager who believes that under the
right conditions people not only will work hard but will
seek increased responsibility and challenge.
– Theory Z: A manager who believes that workers seek
opportunities to participate in management and are
motivated by teamwork and responsibility sharing.

LEADERSHIP IN THE
INTERNATIONAL CONTEXT
• How leaders in other countries attempt to direct
or influence their subordinates.
• International approaches to leadership
• Research shows there are both similarities and
differences. Most international research has
focused upon Europe, East Asia, the Middle East,
and developing countries such as India, Peru,
Chile, and Argentina.
13. www.StudsPlanet.com
LEADERSHIP IN THE
INTERNATIONAL CONTEXT
European managers tend to use a participative
approach. Researchers investigated four areas
relevant to leadership:
1. Capacity for leadership and initiative (Theory X vs.
Theory Y)
2. Sharing information and objectives: general vs.
detailed, completed instructions for subordinates.
3. Participation: leadership support for participative
leadership
4. Internal control: leader control through external vs.
internal means
14. THE CULTURAL CLUSTER APPROACH
An approach to understanding communication based
on meaningful clusters of countries that share similar
cultural values
• Clusters of countries with core sets of values
• Based on previous research
• Based on patterns of employees’ attitudes
toward work
• Employees were asked questions about…
• Importance of various work goals
• Satisfaction of needs through work
• Organizational factors & management issues
• Nature of roles & interpersonal relationships

15. COUNTRY CLUSTERS
www.StudsPlanet.com
Country Clusters: Tendencies and Factor
•Level of development & technological progress
•Geographic proximity
•Language
•Religious values and beliefs
•Independents have unique language, religion, and
history
17. Benefits of Country Clusters
• Understanding broad similarities and differences
• Helps simplify cross-cultural differences
• Modify management tactics to reflect values
www.StudsPlanet.com
Limitations of Country Clusters
•Not all countries represented
•Many African and NIS countries missing
•Complexity within a cluster
•i.e., Harmony in Asia
•Complexity within a country
•i.e, Diversity in U.S.

CULTURE CLUSTERS AND LEADERSHIP
EFFECTIVENESS
Important attributes that form a concept of
outstanding business leader
– Anglo mangers identify performance orientation, an
inspirational style, having a vision, being a team
integrator, and being decisive as being the top five
attributes
– Nordic managers ranked these same five attributes as
most important but not in same order
– Rankings of clusters in the North/West European region
were fairly similar
– Substantial differences exist within and between the
South/East European countries, countries from Eastern
Europe, and Russia and Georgia

RECENT FINDINGS
• One of the keys to successful global
leadership is knowing what style and
behavior works best in a given culture and
adapting appropriately
– In affective cultures, such as the United States,
leaders tend to exhibit their emotions
– In neutral cultures, such as Japan and China,
leaders do not tend to show their emotions
29. MEETING THE CHALLENGE
• Many MNCs are committed to a globalization
imperative
• A belief that one worldwide approach to doing business is
the key to both efficiency and effectiveness
• Many factors are facilitating the need to develop unique
strategies for different cultures
1. The diversity of worldwide industry standards
2. A continual demand by local customers for differentiated
products, as in the case of consumer goods that must
meet local tastes
3. The importance of being an insider, as in the case of
customers who prefer to ―buy local‖
www.StudsPlanet.com
30. GLOBALIZATION VS. NATIONAL
RESPONSIVENESS
• Advertising (as an example)
• Germans
• Want advertising that is factual and rational
• Typical German spot features the standard family of two
parents, two children, and grandmother
• French
• Avoid reasoning or logic
• Advertising is predominantly emotional, dramatic, and
symbolic
• Spots are viewed as cultural events—art for the sake of
money—and are reviewed as if they were literature or films
• British
• Value laughter above all else
• Typical broad, self-deprecating British commercial amuses
by mocking both the advertiser and consumer
www.StudsPlanet.com
31. GLOBALIZATION VS. NATIONAL
RESPONSIVENESS
• Adding value to the marketing approach
• Tailor the advertising message to the particular culture
• Stay abreast of local market conditions; don’t assume all
markets are basically the same
• Know the strengths and weaknesses of MNC subsidiaries;
provide them with assistance needed in addressing local
demands
• Give the subsidiary more autonomy; let it respond to changes
in local demands

32. CROSS-CULTURAL DIFFERENCES
AND SIMILARITIES
• Parochialism
• Tendency to view the world through one’s own eyes and
perspectives
• Simplification

adopted overseas without modification
• But, some similarities have been found
• Russia and the U.S. (for example)
• Traditional management
• Communication
• Human resources
• Networking activities

Britain Easy. But sometimes labor unions can get in the way.
Eastern Europe Forget it. Even if you get government permission,
chances are you talked to the wrong bureaucrat.
