Full range leadership theory. Effective (FRLT) Full Range leadership theory is described as putting together of transformational and transactional models (Bass & Avolio, 1994, 1997, 1999, 2004). Transformational leadership stresses on the relationship between the leaders and subordinate and workplace situations that result to surpassing expectations. By the application of FRLT, SAHC leaders will effectively manage the MDCs facing the leadership. According to Mhoon-Walker (2013), stimulating inducement, intellectual encouragement, and customized deliberation are three features of transformational leadership utilized to motivate subordinate performance. The application of FRLT has demonstrated to be appropriate in leadership improvement, as a …show more content…
For instance, Allio (2005) asserted that leadership effectiveness cannot be taught, but is learned by driven individuals with the essential leadership approach or traits. Degeling and Carr (2004) concurred by adding that a leader’s growth is built on a foundation of cognitive, socio-emotional, and behavioral skills. Degeling and Carr (2004) posited that SAHC leader improvement is instituted on a ground of cognitive, socio-emotional and behavioral skills. Goleman (1998) stressed that a person can have unsurpassed trainings in the world, including analytical mind, and an infinite resource of clever thoughts, however, without (EI) emotional intelligence; the person will not make a great leader. Equally, Hagenow (2001) concluded that El is indispensable for healthcare leaders in the MDC world. Therefore, SAHC leadership must demonstrate EI to manage the MDCs that confront its leadership. In order to excel, in a leadership capacity, leaders must exhibit both technical and functional capability capabilities as well as EI (Dykeman, 2006). These competencies, sustained by leader attributes such as self-awareness, creativity, trust, openness, and practical, social and general intelligence, provide the basis for leadership (Amagoh, …show more content…
Dye and Garman (2006) posited a model of leadership competencies based on a four-cornerstone structure: (1) highly motivated self-awareness in a healthy self-concept comprising of knowledge of oneself as a leader. It means the competencies of living by personal persuasions and possessing EI. El comprises of the ability to distinguish emotions, facilitate emotions in thought, perceive emotions, and manage emotions (Mayer & Salovey, 1997). SAHC leadership needs to be greatly motivated to manage the MDCs and manage emotions as the situation arises. (2) Compelling vision. This refers to the capability to craft effective plans for the future of SAHC based on strong comprehending of propensities, challenges, risks, and
Before you can summarize the concepts related to leadership theory, you have to define what leadership is. Leadership is a process of social influence in which one person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task or goals. The fundamental concept of leadership is indirection. In any organization, the leader indirectly impacts the performance of the organization through the performance of individual team members. To make that impact, the leader takes on the role of the coach, and the inspiratory. As the coach, the leader improves the performer's skills. As the inspiratory, the leader inspires the passion required for optimal performance. A good leader can make decisions with a clear mind and will listen to theirs but can run through every consequence and possibility in their head. They take every angle and come out with the best answer for the majority of the people or situations it effects. And will not let their emotions be shut off but will have feeling where it is needed.
According to Dr. Karlene Kerfoot, “research tells us that the leadership traits of the person in charge work either as a magnet to attract, retain, and inspire or as a force that repels” (Kerfoot 2006, p. 25) and in support of this statement she makes reference to the fact that many persons go to work for a specific company with enthusiasm and eagerness and ultimately leave disappointed because of the management. “People are generally hungry for personalized leadership that speaks to their hearts”, says Dr.Kerfoot and this type of leadership motivates them to accomplish task and complete projects they deem difficult or impossible (Kerfoot 2006, p. 25)
I chose this assessment because I believe is it important for all leaders to be self-aware of these skills, as all three are needed and continually improve these skills. From this assessment, I
There are many leadership theories that play an important role in the every day workforce. Some of the theories are successful in producing a strong and productive leader, while others lack the qualities required for the job. Out of the multitude of available theories out there, I feel that the Transformational Leadership Theory is the one that stands out as being the most successful. This theory is far from coercive and instead focuses on making a satisfied team that collaborates to form a productive work environment. An environment like this, ran by a top-notch leader, is needed for success.

Understanding one’s strengths and weaknesses is essential to becoming and being a good leader. “Purposeful leaders understand who they are” (Mayfield, 2013). The author of this paper has had previous opportunities to lead, and will reflect on her experiences using the assigned inventory. She will evaluate her skill set and discuss ways she can be an advocate for change with the hospital and community in which she is employed. Lastly, she will identify one personal goal for her leadership growth and explore different avenues for obtaining that goal.
Two of my strengths I discovered in Full Range Development Leadership (FRDL) that is a part of transformational leadership were individualized consideration and inspirational motivation. Since, transformational leadership is the most active and effective form of leadership according to the Senior Noncommissioned Officer Academy student guide it is critical to have some strengths within FRDL in relations to Deliberate Leadership. Individualized consideration is where leaders become a mentor or coach and can hear their subord...
When I think of effective leaders, I think of leaders with strategies, visions, or powerful ideas. However, this course has taught me different. While strategies and ideas are necessary for being a leader, it takes emotional intelligence for a leader to be successful. Emotional intelligence is essential for social and professional competency in any field, especially in the healthcare field where feelings affect individual as well as institutional health. As an individual going into the healthcare field, I must possess the ability to perceive, use, understand, and manage emotions, as it will se...
Leadership at times can be a complex topic to delve into and may appear to be a simple and graspable concept for a certain few. Leadership skills are not simply acquired through position, seniority, pay scale, or the amount of titles an individual holds but is a characteristic acquired or is an innate trait for the fortunate few who possess it. Leadership can be misconstrued with management; a manager “manages” the daily operations of a company’s work while a leader envisions, influences, and empowers the individuals around them.
There is an importance of leaders to first analyze the impact of their emotional manifestation. Leaders should own emotional intelligence. Those leaders that don’t possess emotional int...
Leadership is increasingly important in today's society. Many experts and scholars point out that the current leadership crisis concerns moral and character problems in many leaders (Ahn, Ettner, & Loupin, 2012; Callahan, 2004; Wright & Quick, 2011). The following interview report is intended primarily for exploration and comparison of the traits and characteristics of leadership. A leader of a clinical medicine centre was interviewed for this report. The purpose of this report is to explore the leadership characters and traits, and how they can be developed in this turbulent environment. First, I make a brief introduction regarding the background of the respondent and her working environment. The report also describes this leader's personal and subjective perceptions in relation to a literature review which investigates the traits and characteristics of leadership. The report concludes with a comparison and discussion of the results of the clinical condition on the basis of the interview and literature review. At the same time, the report aims to put forward feasible and effective advice and specific programs for present and future leaders and managers in the health care system.
The role of leadership has become increasing valuable for organizations to be successful. According to Huber (2014), Leadership can best be defined as method utilized to ensure that an objective is completed. There are many different types of leaderships that can be found within each organization. In this paper I will highlight an example of a specific leadership style that we come across in healthcare settings. I will review my leadership self-assessment results and discuss the impact of leadership on staff and groups.
Path-goal theory deals with the leader's style to motivate followers, to accomplish set goals (Northouse, 2010). The path-goal theory is simply the implication that a leader works with an individual to establish a goal. The leader does this by individual motivation to achieve the proposed goal, while working through obstacles that may hinder achieving that goal (Whitener, 2007). The basic assumption of path-goal theory is that the following motivates subordinates: the capability to perform the work, their efforts will result in a certain outcome, and the payoff will be worthwhile (Whitener, 2007). The path-goal theory is a pragmatic approach that the leader uses to motivate the followers to achieve the set goals.
There are different leadership theories developed throughout the history. Most popular ones are trait theories, behavioral theories, contingency theories, and leader-member exchange (LMX) theory. The author of the post will briefly discuss two theories, Fiedler contingency theory and Leader-Member Exchange (LMX), and compare and contrast their strengths and weakness.
What does it take to be an effective leader? This is something that has been asked many times over the course of human history. Some might say that having a strong personality and a commanding presence is needed in order to be a strong leader. Others might say that someone who stays on top of everything and keeps order is more effective as a leader. Everyone has their own opinion on this subject and in many regards, they are not wrong. Good quality leadership is something that is hard to possess and is not something everyone can do. Leadership is something that has been studied and analyzed many times, and from these studies, many theories have emerged from them. Each of these theories of leadership has their own benefits and can be useful
