The document discusses modern and postmodern perspectives in organization theory. It outlines key differences between the two views. The modern perspective sees organizations as real entities that can be rationally managed to achieve objectives, while the postmodern view sees organizations as social constructs that are sites of power relations without objective truths or universal principles. The document also summarizes the ideas of several theorists like Lyotard, Nietzsche, Derrida and Foucault that influenced the development of postmodern thought.

This case study analyzes the personality and work attitudes of a high-achieving individual through various dimensions. The individual assessed is Mr. Ouple, a 42-year old station house officer in the Punjab Police department in Lahore, Pakistan. The factors analyzed include personality using the Five Factor Model, emotional intelligence, motivation, leadership styles, workplace happiness, self-image, and deviant behaviors. Personality is shaped by experiences and culture/family. High conscientiousness and extraversion predict job performance. Emotional intelligence relates to performance and leadership. Intrinsic and extrinsic motivation impact performance. Path-goal theory describes leadership. Workplace factors like rewards, environment impact happiness. Self-esteem relates to self
This document discusses the integration of Leader-Member Exchange Theory and Social Network Theory into a unified leadership theory. Leader-Member Exchange Theory focuses on the interactions between leaders and subordinates, while Social Network Theory examines relationships between individuals as nodes and ties. Both theories emphasize relationships and communications. To integrate them, a unified theory should understand relationships between leaders and subordinates in terms of behaviors like trust and respect. It should also facilitate information sharing among all actors. This unified theory framework could help address relationship challenges in healthcare by empowering nurse managers and promoting evidence-based care through information transfer.
The behavioral management theory addresses human behavior and motivation in the workplace. Theorists like Hugo Munsterberg, Douglas McGregor, and Abraham Maslow contributed ideas around applying psychology to industries. McGregor proposed "Theory X" and "Theory Y" assumptions about human nature and motivation. Maslow developed a hierarchy of needs that classified human needs from physiological to self-actualization and how satisfying lower needs impacts motivation.
Man, the different situations in which he finds himself, the diversity of aims, objectives and functions that he purpose and that are laid down for him and the many types of frames of reference in which he finds himself, are all together so complex and complicated that we cannot evolve anything like a universal formula for leadership. In fact the most that we can say and we can say it all generic elements of administration – is that the success of leadership in the final analysis is determined by the knowledge of the leader and of the people he leads. This knowledge includes knowledge of things outside the group’s own frame of reference. All this constitute the subject – matter of this article.
This document discusses key principles of administration including hierarchy, span of control, unity of command, power and authority, supervision, delegation, and coordination. It provides definitions and explanations of each principle. For hierarchy, it outlines the meaning, definitions from various scholars, basic features, advantages, and disadvantages. It also discusses remedies for disadvantages of hierarchy. Similar explanations are provided for other principles such as span of control, unity of command, and more.

The document provides an overview of leadership theories. It discusses early trait theories that posited leadership was innate. It then summarizes criticisms of trait theories that led to situational and contingency theories examining how leadership depends on environmental factors. More recent research has re-established the importance of traits while also considering how traits interact and apply differently depending on the situation. The document outlines several major theories including functional theory examining what behaviors contribute to group effectiveness.
The document outlines the major approaches to organizational behavior throughout history, beginning with the classical views of bureaucracy, scientific management, and administrative management in the early 1900s. It then discusses the neoclassical human relations movement and contributions of thinkers like Chester Barnard. Finally, it covers modern approaches including systems theory, contingency view, behavioral science, and quantitative methods that emerged from the 1940s onward.
This document outlines a conceptual framework for understanding local leadership development within the INGO sector in Laos. The framework draws on institutional theories and concepts including legitimacy, institutional entrepreneurship, and glocalization. Legitimacy refers to actions being seen as appropriate within social norms. Institutional entrepreneurship examines purposive actions aimed at creating, maintaining or disrupting institutions. Glocalization considers how local leadership is shaped by both domestic and international factors. The framework seeks to understand patterns of meaning that influence relationships and considers both stable social structures and potential for change or contestation within fields.
Chapter 15 theories of organizational behavior and leadershipstanbridge
This document provides an overview of several theories of organizational behavior and leadership from the early 1900s to present day. It discusses classical theories from Taylor, Fayol, and Weber that focused on scientific management and hierarchical structures. Later theories from Barnard, Simon, and Lewin incorporated social and psychological factors. Modern contingency theories consider how leadership style depends on situational factors. No single theory can fully explain organizational behavior, and a balanced approach is needed.
The document discusses two theories of leadership: trait theory and Douglas McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y. Trait theory believes that certain innate qualities and traits determine leadership ability. It identifies traits like intelligence, honesty, and self-confidence. The theory also lists strengths and limitations. Theory X assumes employees dislike work while Theory Y believes employees can find work rewarding and seek responsibility if given commitment to objectives and rewards beyond compensation.
This document summarizes several organizational theories that can help explain the structure of education institutions: institutional theory explains how universities develop similar structures and cultures; population ecology and resource dependency theory both argue that organizations are influenced by their environment; structural contingency theory posits that organizational structures must adapt to fit contextual factors; and the traditional classroom structure mirrors Mintzberg's machine bureaucracy model with a hierarchical knowledge transfer from teacher to students. Analyzing these models can provide insight into decision-making within colleges and universities.
The document discusses several approaches to organizational behavior:
- The scientific management approach focused on making work more efficient through time and motion studies but was criticized for treating workers like machines.
- The bureaucratic approach proposed a standardized structure for all organizations but was criticized for not adapting to different contexts.
- The Hawthorne studies found that social factors like attention improved productivity more than physical work conditions alone.
- Later approaches emphasized the human element, contingencies in different situations, productivity broadly defined, and an interdisciplinary perspective.
Social constructionist thinking can help address some challenges in entrepreneurship research. It provides a way to theorize the relationship between structure and agency without forcing a dualist view. Social constructionist ideas examine how entrepreneurial practices are constructed through the interaction of individual agency, industry structure, and wider social and economic factors. They also allow investigation of different levels of analysis while bridging issues of agency and structure. Social constructionist thinking is useful because it offers a means to theorize how and why entrepreneurial activities occur in relation to various contextual influences.
This document discusses the contributing disciplines to organizational behavior. It states that organizational behavior is a field that studies how individuals, groups, and structure impact behavior in organizations. The key disciplines that contribute to organizational behavior are psychology, sociology, anthropology, social psychology, and political science. Each section provides a brief definition and overview of how each discipline relates to and informs the study of organizational behavior.
The document discusses several topics related to public administration including:
1) It defines public administration as the detailed and systematic application of law and notes it is part of the executive branch of government and related to state activities.
2) It describes the classical theory of public administration including principles by Fayol, Taylor, and Weber as well as the neoclassical theory which incorporates behavioral science.
3) It discusses different perspectives on the scope of public administration from narrow to broad and prevailing views covering areas like planning, organization, and budgeting.

This document provides an overview of organizational behavior, including:
1. Definitions of organizational behavior from various sources that refer to human behavior in organizations.
2. A brief history of foundations of organizational behavior including scientific management, bureaucracy, and the human relations movement.
3. Reasons to study organizational behavior including gaining competencies to be an effective employee or manager and understanding what is happening in one's job.
4. Issues in organizational behavior related to diversity, technology, ethics, and globalization.
This document provides an overview of organizational behavior including its definition, origin, theoretical frameworks, and importance for managers. Organizational behavior is defined as the study of human behavior in organizational contexts with the goal of improving organizational effectiveness. The origins of OB began with the famous Hawthorne studies from the 1920s. There are three main theoretical frameworks in OB: the behaviorist framework, cognitive framework, and social learning framework. The behaviorist framework includes classical and operant conditioning. The cognitive framework focuses on human thought processes like expectations and intentions. And the social learning framework emphasizes reciprocal interactions among cognitive, behavioral, and environmental factors. Understanding OB provides managers with tools and theories to analyze and improve employee behavior for better organizational performance.
This document summarizes theories in public administration from 1800 to 1980. It covers the classical era from 1800-1950s which was based on scientific management, bureaucracy, and administrative management. Theories included Frederick Taylor's scientific management, Max Weber's bureaucracy, and Henri Fayol's 14 principles of management. The neoclassical era from the 1920s-1930s incorporated the human element and included theories from Mary Parker Follett, Chester Barnard, and Elton Mayo. Abraham Maslow introduced the hierarchy of needs and Frederick Herzberg the motivation-hygiene theory. Douglas McGregor proposed theory X and theory Y. The modern era integrated the classical and human relations approaches and included decision making theory from Herbert Simon and industrial human
The classical theory projects public administration as a scienceSuzana Vaidya
The document discusses the classical and bureaucratic approaches to public administration. It describes the key thinkers and principles of each approach. The classical approach was proposed by Gulick and Urwick, who argued for establishing administration as a science based on empirical methods. They emphasized organizational structure principles like specialization, hierarchy, and span of control. Weber is identified as the founder of the bureaucratic theory. His views were influenced by neo-Kantianism and emphasized rationalization. Weber analyzed bureaucracies in ancient states and characterized modern bureaucracies as having division of labor, hierarchies, rules, impersonality, and neutrality.
This document provides an introduction to the topic of organisational behaviour. It defines organisational behaviour as the study of people within an organisation, investigating the behaviour of individuals, groups, and relationships between individuals and groups and how that behaviour affects organizational performance. The knowledge of organizational behaviour can then be used to explain and predict likely behaviour in situations and promote behaviour that benefits both people and the business. It notes that organizational behaviour draws from fields like psychology, sociology, and political science and considers the unique perspectives of individuals in the workplace and their interactions with the organization.
The document discusses the complex legal infrastructure for public health in the United States across federal, state, and local levels of government. While states have the primary legal responsibility for public health, the federal government has grown in influence through powers like the Commerce Clause, funding provided by taxing authority, and agenda-setting on national issues. Local governments are dependent on and limited by state authority based on Dillon's Rule. Overall, while legal authority is dispersed, informal powers from funding, politics, and national prioritization have increased the federal government's dominance in shaping public health policy despite public health primarily being implemented locally.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

Sternberg’s triarchic theory of intelligencesJanette Balagot
Sternberg's Triarchic Theory of Intelligence proposes three types of intelligence: analytical, creative, and practical. Analytical intelligence involves planning, monitoring, and problem solving. Creative intelligence focuses on developing new ideas and solutions. Practical intelligence applies to selecting and shaping real-world environments. The theory also describes seven types of people based on their balance or imbalance of the three intelligences: The Analyzer, The Creator, The Practitioner, The Analytical Creator, The Analytical Practitioner, The Creative Practitioner, and The Consummate Balancer who achieves the optimal balance.

Module 19 Meaning and Types of Motivation
Intelligence is defined as the ability to learn, reason, and solve problems. There are various approaches to defining and assessing intelligence, including psychometric testing which measures cognitive abilities, and multiple intelligences theories which propose separate abilities. Intelligence tests measure abilities like verbal, abstract, and quantitative reasoning. The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale is a widely-used and reliable test that assesses intelligence through subscales in these cognitive areas from childhood through adulthood. Fluid intelligence refers to abstract reasoning ability while crystallized intelligence involves accumulated knowledge and skills over life experiences. Learning is defined as a relatively permanent change in behavior resulting from experience.

Abstract A new research area linked to ethics, virtues,
and morality is servant leadership. Scholars are currently
seeking publication outlets as critics debate whether this
new leadership theory is significantly distinct, viable, and
valuable for organizational success. The aim of this study
was to identify empirical studies that explored servant
leadership theory by engaging a sample population in order
to assess and synthesize the mechanisms, outcomes, and
impacts of servant leadership. Thus, we sought to provide
an evidence-informed answer to how does servant leader-
ship work, and how can we apply it? We conducted a sys-
tematic literature review (SLR), a methodology adopted
from the medical sciences to synthesize research in a sys-
tematic, transparent, and reproducible manner. A disci-
plined screening process resulted in a final sample
population of 39 appropriate studies. The synthesis of these
empirical studies revealed: (a) there is no consensus on the
definition of servant leadership; (b) servant leadership
theory is being investigated across a variety of contexts,
cultures, and themes; (c) researchers are using multiple
measures to explore servant leadership; and (d) servant
leadership is a viable leadership theory that helps organi-
zations and improves the well-being of followers. This
study contributes to the development of servant leadership
theory and practice. In addition, this study contributes to the
methodology for conducting SLRs in the field of manage-
ment, highlighting an effective method for mapping out
thematically, and viewing holistically, new research topics.
We conclude by offering suggestions for future research.

Introduction
Leadership is one of the most comprehensively researched
social influence processes in the behavioral sciences. This is
because the success of all economic, political, and organi-
zational systems depends on the effective and efficient
guidance of the leaders of these systems (Barrow 1977). A
critical factor to understanding the success of an organiza-
tion, then, is to study its leaders. Leadership is a skill used to
influence followers in an organization to work enthusiasti-
cally towards goals specifically identified for the common
good (Barrow 1977; Cyert 2006; Plsek and Wilson 2001).
Great leaders create a vision for an organization, articulate
the vision to the followers, build a shared vision, craft a path
to achieve the vision, and guide their organizations into new
directions (Banutu-Gomez and Banutu-Gomez 2007; Kotter
2001). According to Schneider (1987), the most important
part in build.
This document discusses developing a leadership development plan. It recommends completing a self-assessment of current leadership strengths and weaknesses. Using the results and the National Public Health Leadership Network's competency framework, the assignment is to create a 3-5 year plan to develop core transformational, political, organizational, and team-building competencies. The plan should justify selections and describe how the individual will enhance their capacity as an agent of social change.

Article 1
According to the article “Too Much of a Good Thing,” intellectual roots of organizational and management theory involves the Japanese leaders approach to quality improvement. The topic is related to organizational behavior in that it discusses quality and its compatibility with innovation. Innovation is a subtopic in human behavior in the workplace and its impact on the company. This topic makes a difference in management in that it discusses how organizations can properly manage quality improvement activities and thus achieve innovations. This article discusses strategy methods such as the waterfall methodology, which makes employees especially programmers more productive. Strategy formulation involves activities geared at creating a particular strategy such as the waterfall strategy. Strategy implementation involves using the formulated strategy to achieve results. Management can change significantly by responding to radical innovation.

According to the second article “Rebuilding companies as communities,” the intellectual roots of organizational and management theories are based on the concept of making companies a place where employees can engage and are committed to one another. The topic is related to organizational behavior in that it discusses the idea of organizational culture and employee’s attitude towards building companies as communities. The topic contributes to management in that it suggests the kind of leadership that would best work for this kind of an organization suggesting that distributed and engaged leadership would be effective. The article suggests community-ship as a strategy of improving modern age organizations. According to this article, management can improve through leadership activities such as the creation of a work atmosphere that promotes trust.
Article 3
According to the third article, “Making management matter” the roots of organizational and management involve leadership and must struggle to be rigorous and interdisciplinary. The topic is related to organizational behavior in that it talks about leadership, which is a subtopic or organizational behavior and influencing employee’s behavior and attitude towards an achievement. The topic adds to management by arguing that a major requirement of management research need to be rooted in practical issues and finding the right balance between interdisciplinary research and drawing from diverse disciplines. A good strategy in business, especially for a leader, is to have a sense of where the company wants to achieve and working with the team to make things happen. Management can improve through the research that draws from academic disciplines to allow managers to comprehend the content of detailed issue they are handling.

This document discusses the opportunity for increased peer leadership in the mental health and substance abuse fields. It notes that recent legislation and interest in reform has increased demand for peer input, but often peers are selected based on tokenism rather than competency. New leadership theories like transformational and authentic leadership are well-suited to peer leadership. Relatively new peer leadership development initiatives could help identify and train new peer leaders to advocate for important initiatives and policies.

Benchmark- Self Assessment and Reflection
Benchmark- Self Assessment and Reflection
Introduction
Self-assessment is the capacity to dive into one's nature to develop personal progress. Self-diagnosis is a talent that allows individuals to analyze their efforts and skills, limitations, and strengths and develop solutions to present problems. Mackey and Sisodia describe the capacity to lead with awareness, sensitivity, and emotional intelligence in their work. This essay explains the features of conscious leadership and the effect of two historical management theories, a summary of the findings of each assessment I performed, and the insights I obtained from my self-assignment.
Characteristics of Conscious Leadership
One of the characteristics of conscious leadership, according to Mackey and Sisodia, is the ability to understand business in terms of a larger purpose and the potential constructive effect it may have on the world around them (Mackey & Sisodia, 2014). Conscious leadership must be a command system that serves all stakeholders equally to achieve relevance. This is done through eliciting the best in others and focusing on collective rather than individual achievement (Mackey & Sisodia, 2014). A conscious leader is built on four pillars: a higher purpose, stakeholder change, personal command, and service to others. A higher purpose necessitates a reorientation of an organization's goals. Leaders must inspire and encourage all stakeholders while also changing staff via better training and serving as role models to bring out the best in every employee. Stakeholder transformation is the second pillar (Mackey & Sisodia, 2014).
This pillar contributes to the creation of a positive work environment and a transparent sequential chain of communication, which can improve employee performance by increasing the value of stakeholders through the establishment of a healthy ecosystem, which is critical for the achievement of the organization's goals (Mackey & Sisodia, 2014). The individual command adds to the notion of significance as a technique of doing things since it has a substantial impact on the work environment and employee performance, as well as on workers' incentive to invest in themselves to achieve a greater degree of personal interpretation (Mackey & Sisodia, 2014). Finally, conscious leadership requires a commitment to using one's talents, influence, position, and resources to impact positive change in society, which promotes accomplishments and better outcomes in the medium and long run, among other things (Mackey & Sisodia, 2014).
Two Historical Management Theories
A scientific theory, one of the two historical management theories, was developed in the early twentieth century by Frederick W. Taylor (Sobociski, 2017). Taylor was an engineer who experimented with many tactics to discover the most well-organized and efficient methods of completing the projects he was assigned to develop (Sobociski, 2017). He created ...

Abstract: Leaders play a critical role in the success or failure of their organizations. Leaders can
be effective in implementing changes, building their organization’s capabilities, and improving its
performance, or the opposite, they could be ineffective. In this systematic review, the authors aim
to summarize the findings of previous quantitative research, published between the period from
2000 to 2018, to identify the effect of various leadership styles on organizational Knowledge
management (KM) capabilities and activities. The authors reviewed 50 articles found in well-
known databases included Emerald, ScienceDirect, Taylor and Francis, Ebsco, Google Scholar,
and others, concerning the impact of leadership when implementing KM in business organiza-
tions. The review revealed that transformational, transactional, knowledge-oriented leadership,
top executives, and strategic leadership have evidence of their constant and positive effect on the
KM process. The authors encourage organizations to use a combination of those styles to max-
imize the effect of leadership on KM. The authors also recommend conducting further studies
on the effect of the remaining leadership styles, such as the ethical and servant leadership styles
on KM and the other specific KM activities.

Introduction
According to the literature, KM has
a significant impact on organizational per-
formance and innovation. Researchers have
found a strong link between KM and differ-
ent aspects of management innovation that
provide an organization with a competitive
advantage. KM’s implementation in business
organizations could be affected by sever-
al factors, such as the organization culture,
budget, infrastructure, technology, and lead-
ership.
The impact of leadership on business
and organizational management has been
recognized as a significant factor that could
make a difference in organizational perfor-
mance. The academic gurus proposed sev-
eral theories, such as the great man theory,
various behavioral theories, Lewin’s theory,
the contingency theory, the situational lead-
ership theory, the transformational theory,
the transactional theory (or managerial lead-
ership), and many others.
Based on the existing literature, the out ...

Creativity Through Applying Ideas From Fields Other
Than One’s Own: Transferring Knowledge From Social
Psychology to Industrial/Organizational Psychology *
Abstract
Subfields of psychology can be arguably characterized as
islands of unconnected knowledge. The underlying theme
of this paper is that these subfields have much to gain by
looking at and studying each other’s respective literature.
This paper explains how the field of industrial/organiza-
tional (I/O) psychology has benefited from theory and
research in social psychology, and suggests ways it can ben-
efit even more so. Specifically, moral development, the
group-serving bias, as well as inducing feelings of hypocrisy
so as to foster subsequent behaviour change are discussed.
Their potential for leading to further insight into existing
problems, refining existing theories, and for raising new
questions in I/O psychology is described.
Psychology is a behavioural science whose literature
has grown rapidly. However, psychology has often
failed to transfer knowledge across its subfields.
Scientists and practitioners within the subfields fre-
quently appear ignorant of ways they can benefit from
cross-subfield research. These subfields, whether bio-
logical, clinical, educational, social, or industrial, con-
tain interdependent ideas that should be shared in
order to advance psychology for all.
Since the authors are researchers of organizational
behaviour, this paper provides insights as to how trans-
ferring knowledge from social psychology has already
enriched the science and practice of I/O psychology.
In addition, new ideas as to how I/O psychology can
benefit from social psychology are explored.
Benefits of Reading Literature Other than One’s Own
The benefits of researching literature other than one’s
own are at least four-fold. First, sharing concepts
among psychology’s subfields allows researchers to
extend their work to other areas (i.e., generalization).
Second, it enables them to theorize and contextualize
their research so as to connect their findings within
larger conversations. Research designs often yield rela-
tively sterile pieces of data that contribute little to
knowledge and understanding when they are confined
to narrow disciplines, or kept within the borders of a
specific field (e.g., Locker, 1994; Sternberg &
Grigorenko, 2001). Third, it helps researchers to be
constructively critical of both the fields from which
they draw information and of that in which they work.
It can lead to proposals for using alternative method-
ologies in a particular program of research. Fourth, it
enables researchers to raise questions not previously
considered. Sharing knowledge across subfields may
even lead researchers who investigate the same phe-
nomenon, but who are in different areas of psycholo-
gy, and hence have different perspectives and instru-
ments, to interact with one another in ways that facili-
tate both knowledge creation and knowledge applica-
tion.

Nurses as Leaders and Managers for Staff, High Quality Patient Care.pptxAhmad Al-Sadi
This document discusses nurses as leaders and managers for high quality patient care. It begins by outlining 9 learning objectives related to leadership theories, roles and responsibilities, management vs leadership, followership, finances influencing care quality and staffing, ethics, and the Future of Nursing campaign. It then discusses leadership being taught rather than innate, and calls for nursing education to incorporate leadership. Key initiatives like QSEN and the Future of Nursing campaign are also summarized. The roles of formal vs informal leadership and the distinctions between leadership and management are outlined.
The document discusses theoretical frameworks for research. It provides information on several theories that could be used as the basis for a study, including organizational theory, performance theory, and theories on governance, collective action, and service delivery. It emphasizes that the theoretical framework introduces and describes the theory that explains the research problem and will guide hypotheses, variable selection, and data analysis. The theoretical framework strengthens a study by allowing critical evaluation, connecting to existing knowledge, explaining phenomena, and identifying limits of generalizations.

Skills for Successful Public Health Leadership Conceptualized Within the WICS Model
Michelle Dunn
University of Maryland University College
2. WICS SKILLS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH LEADERSHIP SKILL 2
Skills for Successful Public Health Leadership Conceptualized Within the WICS Model
While there are many conceptual models of leadership, American psychologist Robert
Sternberg defines a systems model in which successful leadership skills organize within three
categories: creativity, intelligence, and wisdom (Sternberg, 2007). Sternberg’s triptych model,
with the added concept of “synthesis”, provides an excellent framework for exploring skills
required for successful leadership in public health. Other models of leadership enhance and
expand on the skill sets described in his model, briefly known as the WICS model of leadership.
Intelligence
Most analyses of the WICS Leadership Model begin with a discussion of the creativity
component (Sternberg, 2007; Lamberth & Rowitz, 2009). This review will begin with a
discussion of the intelligence skill sets, asserting that these are the foundation for applying
creativity and wisdom to the purposeful work of a successful public health leader. Discourse on
intelligence suggests multiplicity in types of intelligence. Sternberg’s WICS model delineates
two types of intelligence but also alludes to forms of intelligence that mimic the additional types.
Analytic Intelligence
Depictions of the WICS model of leadership begin by discussing creativity with the
assertion that idea generation is the preliminary skill set upon which leaders apply analytic
intelligence to assess the validity of these ideas (Lamberth & Rowitz, 2009). However, given
Sternberg’s definition of analytic intelligence (also referred to as academic intelligence) as “the
skills and dispositions needed to not only recall and recognize but also to analyze, evaluate, and
judge information” (Sternberg, 2007, p. 37), these skills arguably precede those of creativity.
Alternatively, definitions of analytic intelligence such as “the integration, organization, and
3. WICS SKILLS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH LEADERSHIP SKILL 3
ordering of thoughts” (Shabnam & Tung, 2013, p. 318) speak to how creativity skills develop
simultaneously with intelligence skills with the former informing the latter.
Practical Intelligence
Apart from the information gathering and assessment skills of analytical knowledge, the
successful leader must present the evidence of their analysis in a convincing way. Sternberg
defines this set of skills as practical knowledge, alternatively described as “tacit knowledge” or
“procedural knowledge” (2007, p. 38). These are the leadership skills that facilitate plan
development and implementation.
This skill set includes the ability to discern and use appropriate resources (Sternberg,
2007) and to communicate effectively for successful team-building within the organization
(Lamberth & Rowitz, 2009). Additionally, collaborative skills allow the successful public health
leader to promote their agenda across organizations. The Public Health Leadership Competency
Framework defines these leadership skills as “Trans-Organizational Competencies” (Wright,
Reid, & Carmichael, 2000, p. 1205). Specific to public health, these skills allow leaders to
promote their agendas within those of a larger government system, often at odds with public
health’s social justice agenda, using persuasion and compromise (Lamberth & Rowitz, 2009).
This mechanism is characteristic of transactional leadership skills within the context of theory
developed by James Burns. He differentiated transactional and transformation leadership skills as
those that involve give and take, or compromise, versus those that promote higher level common
agendas (Burns, 1978). Accomplishing the latter is a difficult task for the public health leader in
the political arena.
4. WICS SKILLS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH LEADERSHIP SKILL 4
Other Intelligence
While Sternberg primarily differentiates between analytic and practical intelligence,
many leadership theories rely on the notion that intelligence has numerous forms (Shabnam &
Tung, 2013). Emotional intelligence is defined as the ability to understand how emotions (one’s
own as well as others’) effect thought interpretation and agendas (Shabnam & Tung, 2013).
Research on the correlation between intelligence and successful leadership is inconclusive
perhaps because the metrics and inclusiveness for types of intelligence are inconsistent
(Sternberg, 2007; Shabnam & Tung, 2013). Sternberg’s model merely tips a hat to the discussion
of intelligence multiplicity while characterizing emotional intelligence as a subset of practical
intelligence (2007). Other leadership theorists go so far as to parse out additional forms of
intelligence such as spiritual and cultural intelligence (Shabnam & Tung, 2013), the former being
essential to the motivation and moral agenda of a successful public health leader and the latter to
their ability to manage the diversity of the public health workforce, both in skills (Lamberth &
Rowitz, 2009) and ethnic and geographic origins (Alon & Higgins, 2005).
Creativity
Within Sternberg’s model, creativity includes the skills with which the successful leader
generates novel, high quality, and situation-appropriate agendas (2007). The creative leader
applies their intelligence skills to develop and prioritize agendas while marketing their solutions
to their own and collaborating groups. Sternberg describes specific skills needed for this creative
process: the ability to distinguish relevant from irrelevant information and seeing novel
relationships between sets of information (2007). The Institute of Medicine (IOM) defines
assessment as a core function for all public health workers (IOM, 1988), yet the successful
public health leader will approach assessment with creativity. Public health academics Lamberth
5. WICS SKILLS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH LEADERSHIP SKILL 5
and Rowitz, for example, cite a traditional epidemiologist inquiry, “Where is the pump handle on
this one?” (2009, p. 420), referring to nineteenth century epidemiologist John Snow’s famous
problem-solving tactic by which he proved that London’s public wells were cholera’s vector
(Frerichs, n.d.).
Wisdom
Sternberg’s “wisdom” skill set encompasses more intangible, yet equally essential, skills
for a successful public health leader. The most overarching of these is vision. He explains this as
the ability to chose and develop long-term goals over short-sighted ones (2007). Other authors
attribute the same ability to the previously referenced spiritual intelligence (Shabnam & Tung,
2013) that is the foundation of the successful leader’s ethical course toward social justice
(Lamberth & Rowitz, 2009). The servant leader and transformational leader models similarly
affirm that successful leaders must promote a higher agenda than that of the individual or even a
single organization (Lamberth & Rowitz, 2009).
The successful public health leader validates and promotes this vision as a role model.
The concept of “authentic leadership”, cited by nursing academics as essential to the success of
an organization, requires modeling moral conduct, maintaining transparency and self awareness,
and demonstrating flexibility (Laschinger, H. K. S., Wong, C. A., & Grau, A. L., 2013).
Sternberg’s model (2007) as well as ecological leadership models (Lamberth & Rowitz, 2009)
similarly assert that the successful leader is open to change and committed to personal and
organizational growth, an essential skill in the milieu of public health where conditions and
stakeholders are mutable.
6. WICS SKILLS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH LEADERSHIP SKILL 6
Conclusion
Sternberg’s WICS model serves as a framework for understanding successful public
health leadership that reflects many of the same skills purported in other traditional leadership
theories. Leadership success requires the application of analytical intelligence to assess and
prioritize public health problems. The creative leader envisions unique relationships between
data sets and stakeholders to develop novel problem-solving methods. Through experience and
effective use of resources, this leader uses practical intelligence skills to develop and implement
a plan for organizational goals. Additional forms of intelligence, such as emotional, spiritual and
cultural, include core skills that ensure a steadfast, ethical vision. Sternberg characterizes this
vision as essential to leadership wisdom. Additionally, his model requires the synthesis of all
three skill sets (2007), paralleling other intelligence discourse suggesting that integration of the
multiplicity of intelligence forms is essential for leaders to succeed in environments of
uncertainty and change (Shabnam & Tung, 2013).
Contemporary public health leaders function in a highly technical and high volume
information world requiring high level data-mining and analytic skills. Widespread and
interconnected public health problems necessitate that these leaders envision their community as
traversing the local to the international and require an equally expansive and fluid perception of
public health needs. In the midst of this complexity, successful public health leaders will avoid
misguided, self-directed agendas by adhering to the overarching mission of social justice. By
setting the moral standard and embodying a trans-organizational vision, successful public health
leaders will instill passion in their followers and collaborators.
