Abstract:
The article highlights the issue of leadership in the context of the exercise in the knowledge-based organization. Connections between organizational culture, management culture and leadership in modern organizations highlight the manner in which leadership is exercised in the context of knowledge of the organization's foundation. Leadership means knowledge and practice, it means quality. Organizations need managers, but they also need leaders. It is desirable for the two areas to overlap in the largest possible extent. Modern approaches emphasize the evolution of these relations to the area where the legitimacy of the leadership's concern is justified by the development and promotion of other leaders.

Abstract:
Student organizations play a role in the development of students' managerial and leadership abilities. Human resources in student organizations include leaders and members of the organization. Every student organization certainly has a work program (proker) where this work program is a guide for every step of the organization and also becomes a direction for leaders and members to run the organization's wheels. To carry out this work program, a leadership strategy is needed because this strategy will later provide direction on how the organization can achieve the work program it has set. This study aims to determine how leadership strategies are applied to organizations in order to realize work programs in student organizations. This research uses descriptive qualitative research methods and data processing techniques using SWOT analysis techniques. The population in this study were 15 students who joined the organization at the Faculty of Economics, Tidar University. Based on the results of the study, it was stated that the leadership strategy applied by organizational leaders in directing their members to realize work programs, among others, by providing opportunities for members to participate in decision making, motivating members, directing members to work, and coordinating However, in reality, this strategy still poses obstacles for the organization in the form of delays in carrying out work programs due to lack of discipline among members of the organization.

Abstract:
Facilitating organizational change depends to a great extent on the ability of the management team to coordinate the amendments related to a recent merger with another organization or to the takeover of a medium-sized company by a multinational organization. Change management is one of the most discussed topics in the study of organizations; modern companies that are constantly subjected to significant changes in order to adapt to market requirements need a management capable of developing the capacity to solve atypical problems and improve performance across their enterprises. In this regard, change management is the organization's orientation towards continuous development to improve results. This paper focuses on explaining the managerial role in modern organizations through the conceptual definition of management and by defining the principal element in organizational implementation, namely leadership. An organization can be brought to a desired status - significantly different from the actual one- only through optimum management of the change process; change management can thus be represented as the process of adapting the organization to the requirements imposed by an outside entity - in this case, a multinational organization that requires a different set of rules and procedures. This can be achieved through the development of leadership skills in management, in order to facilitate the change process specific to any takeover or corporate merger. The paper seeks to circumscribe leadership as a central element in facilitating the transition of the organization by acquiring and retaining organizational commitment. The new directions of leadership research as a reference for conceptual change management is defined respectively as transformational leadership and transactional leadership (Riaz and Haider, 2010).

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this research paper is to explore how organizational leadership style is related to employee leadership skills, leadership and business trends, as well as leadership practices. Design/methodology/approach – In total, 547 participants representing a variety of industries and organization sizes completed an online survey on the current state of leadership at their organizations. We compared the responses of participants working in organizations using a traditional leadership style (n = 121) with those in organizations with a dynamic leadership style (n = 105). Findings – Consistent with hypotheses, the results show that the traditional, hierarchical and command-and-control style of organizational leadership is associated with larger leadership skills gaps, while a more dynamic, all-inclusive and collaborative leadership style is associated with smaller leadership skills gaps. Specific business trends and leadership practices partially explain the association between organizational leadership style and organizational leadership shortages. These factors provide guidance for human resources practitioners looking to set priorities and plans for fostering dynamic leadership within their organizations. Originality/value – This study provides insights into why the leadership deficit endures and what organizations can do to put the issue to rest. This research is unique in that it goes beyond identifying and quantifying specific leadership skills gaps to also reveal which factors may be driving these leadership deficits. This research also isolates which organizational practices and leadership approaches are associated with smaller leadership skills gaps.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine why and when followers of transformational leaders exhibit increased affective organizational commitment. Particularly, the authors examined the role played by perceived organizational support (POS) and supervisor’s organizational embodiment (SOE), i.e. a perception concerning the extent to which employees identify their supervisor with the organization, in this relationship. Design/methodology/approach – In total, 287 employees of a water producer organization responded to a questionnaire. Findings – The results show that, when employees strongly identify their supervisor with the organization, transformational leadership is positively related to POS, with positive consequences in terms of emotional attachment to this organization. In contrast, when the supervisor is not identified to the organization, his/her transformational leadership does not extend to POS and, finally, to affective organizational commitment. Practical implications – The findings suggest that a high transformational leadership and a high SOE together engender the highest POS and affective commitment. Organizations should thus provide their managers with training programs and feedbacks over their performance as leaders to promote transformational leadership. Furthermore, to foster perceptions of SOE, organizations might implement socialization tactics aiming to strengthen managers’ organizational identification or person-organization fit, and give managers more power and influence in their day-to-day work to increase employees’ attributions of informal organizational status to managers. Originality/value – By showing that POS and SOE are important mechanisms in the transformational leadership-affective commitment relationship, this research explains why and when transformational leadership of supervisors has spillover effect on organization-directed attitudes.

Abstract:
Good organizational performance is also inseparable from good organizational management. However, not all Sports Organizations have a Good governance system, even though the governance system is a crucial component for managing a sports organization because it relates to policy issues and the direction of the performance of a sports organization. In addition, organizational performance is also inseparable from the intervention of organizational leaders because a leader has skills in influencing others to work together to achieve common goals. One of the successful leadership styles in business-based organizations is humanist leadership, but can humanist leadership styles contribute to realizing a sports organization that has Good Governance? A total of 20 articles in the last ten years on the topic of Good governance and humanist leadership were used as data and analyzed. Based on the results and discussion of the principles of Good Governance emphasized Transparency, Democracy, Check and Balance and Solidarity, and Humanist leadership, which has pillars such as communication, democracy, and transparency to its members. This study concludes that human leadership has a role in forming leaders who can improve the quality of good governance in sports organizations.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to build a research model that examines the impact of leadership on trust, knowledge management and organizational performance. Design/methodology/approach An instrument containing six constructs (leadership: leading organization; leadership: leading people; leadership: leading self, trust, knowledge management and organizational performance) was designed and administered to subjects from all levels of management in various organizations in nine regions of the USA. Collected data were analyzed using partial least squares path modeling to test the hypotheses. Findings The study’s findings revealed positive and significant linear connection among leadership (leading organization, leading people and leading self), trust, knowledge management and organizational performance. Practical implications The findings imply that effective leadership (leading organization, leading people and leading self) contributes to elevated trust among people, promotes the successful implementation of knowledge management processes, and in turn enhances organizational performance. Therefore, leadership training and development must be a top strategic priority for any organization. Originality/value This study enriches the literature by demonstrating that effective leadership stands as the bedrock of the elevated trust, the successful knowledge management processes and the enhanced organizational performance.

Abstract:
<p> The purpose of this two-phase, sequential mixed methods study was to examine and explain factors relating to leadership in diversity-oriented churches in the United States by obtaining quantitative results from a sample of 65 senior pastors and 92 top-management team members, then follow-up with a multiple case study to explain the results in more depth. The instruments used for quantitative data collection were the 20-item four-factor Cultural Intelligence Scale, the adapted 8-item Openness to Diversity Scale, and the Leadership Practices Inventory. The study's sixteen findings establish significant relationships between leader cultural intelligence, top-management team openness to diversity, and leadership practices, and elucidate how those relationships contribute to a positive organizational diversity climate. In addition, openness to diversity and church polity were discovered to influence TMT perceptions of the senior pastor's leadership practices. Therefore, the findings support the conclusion that investigating intercultural leadership in a domestic organization could reveal new theoretical insights while having implications for leadership practice and organizational effectiveness.</p>

Abstract:
<p> Within today's technologically enmeshed world, people are spending more and more time in front of screens (both large and small). This comes at a cost; time spent outdoors is becoming scarce. How does engaging with nature impact our practice of leadership? A Collaborative Inquiry carried out by four individuals with personal leadership practices explored this question. We found that our leadership practices were improved through spending time in nature. A significant impact we identified was that our experiences in nature had an ego-reductive influence, turning our focus outwards and improving our ability to navigate complex situations with greater fluidity. We recommend that leaders looking to alter their perspective adopt a practice of intentional reflective time in nature.</p><p>

Abstract:
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior<br>The organizational commitment can be conceived as a meaningful liaison between individual and organization, assuming the existence of psychological bonds and significant exchange relationships between both individual and organization. Rego (2003) proposes a study model regarding the organizational commitment and presents six psychological ties between individual and organization, namely: affective commitment, common future, normative commitment, enormous sacrifices, lack of alternatives and psychological absence. Feitosa (2008) adds a tie to the model proposed by Rego (2003): performance expectations or commitment absence. In the study here presented, it was investigated the relation among these psychological bonds and the leadership styles. It was also took in consideration to this analyses the organizational culture. The specific goals of the current research were: to investigate which psychological bonds are significantly related to the leadership styles (transformational leadership, transactional leadership and leadership absence) and in which degree the organizational culture moderate this relationship, as well as to develop a theoretical-methodological model which allows to investigate the interplay among the addressed constructs. The study consists on a cross-sectional survey applied in a large size organization located in the Brazilian city of Fortaleza. The data else collected: a sociodemographic questionnaire; a organizational commitment scale; a leadership scale and organizational culture scale. The study had 205 respondents. The results were statistically analyzed with the support of the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software, using the following statistical technics: linear correlation, linear regression and moderation analysis. Regarding the results, the following positive and significative correlations were attested: transformational leadership and affective commitment bonds, common future and normative commitment, transactional leadership and the bond of normative commitment; leadership absence and the bonds of alternative lack and psychological absence. Besides, it was observed that the clan type organizational culture was a moderating variable that mitigates the effects of the following relations: transformational leadership and affective commitment, transformational leadership and common future. In addition to the aforementioned results, a theoretical-methodological model was developed with all the elements surveyed. It was also concluded that can be taken in consideration to the elaboration of leadership development programs and human resources management policies aiming their efficacy.<br>O comprometimento organizacional pode ser compreendido como um vÃnculo significativo entre indivÃduo e organizaÃÃo, pressupondo um elo psicolÃgico e relaÃÃes de trocas entre ambos. Rego (2003) propÃe um modelo de estudo do comprometimento organizacional e apresenta seis laÃos psicolÃgicos entre indivÃduo e organizaÃÃo, a saber: comprometimento afetivo, futuro comum, comprometimento normativo, sacrifÃcios avultados, escassez de alternativas e ausÃncia psicolÃgica. Feitosa (2008) acrescenta um laÃo ao modelo proposto por Rego (2003): expectativas pelo desempenho ou ausÃncia de compromisso. No atual estudo, à investigada a relaÃÃo entre esses laÃos psicolÃgicos e estilos de lideranÃa, considerando tambÃm a funÃÃo da cultura organizacional nessa relaÃÃo. Os objetivos especÃficos da atual pesquisa podem ser descritos como: investigar quais desses laÃos psicolÃgicos se relacionam de maneira significativa aos estilos de lideranÃa (lideranÃa transformacional, lideranÃa transacional e ausÃncia de lideranÃa) e em que grau a cultura organizacional modera essa relaÃÃo, bem como desenvolver um modelo teÃrico-metodolÃgico que possibilite a investigaÃÃo da relaÃÃo entre os construtos abordados. O estudo se constituiu como survey, de corte transversal, aplicado em uma organizaÃÃo de grande porte, localizada em Fortaleza/CE. O instrumento de coleta de dados à composto de: questionÃrio sociodemogrÃfico; escala sobre comprometimento organizacional; escala sobre lideranÃa e escala sobre cultura organizacional. AlcanÃou-se uma amostra de 205 trabalhadores da referida organizaÃÃo.

No que concerne aos resultados obtidos, foram atestadas as seguintes correlaÃÃes positivas e significativas: lideranÃa transformacional com os laÃos de comprometimento afetivo, futuro comum e comprometimento normativo; lideranÃa transacional com o laÃo de comprometimento normativo; ausÃncia de lideranÃa com os laÃos de escassez de alternativas e ausÃncia psicolÃgica. Ademais, observou-se que a cultura organizacional tipo clà atuou como variÃvel moderadora reduzindo os efeitos nas relaÃÃes seguintes: lideranÃa transformacional e comprometimento afetivo e entre lideranÃa transformacional e futuro comum. AlÃm dos resultados apontados, foi desenvolvido um modelo teÃrico-metodolÃgico com todos os elementos pesquisados.

Abstract:
<p> The objective of this research study was to ascertain if attributes of servant leadership were more fully developed in undergraduate students nearing graduation than in those students who recently embarked on their university program. The university at which the project was completed endeavors to make its undergraduate students servant leaders as publically stated in its vision, mission, and other public statements and documents. The results of the research indicate that of the five servant leadership attributes selected, the seniors indicated higher scores in two categories, lower in one, and showed no statistical difference in the other two. As a result of this study, therefore, it cannot be concluded that the upper classmen had stronger servant leadership attributes than freshmen. The implications of this result include the need for further study around the students&rsquo; environments and history, the institution&rsquo;s curriculum and extracurricular content, and the culture of the university in light of its mission and vision.</p>

Abstract:
<p> As authenticity and trust continue to be recognized as key pillars of effective leadership in today&rsquo;s world (Avolio et al., 2004; Mayer et al., 1995; Peus et al., 2012), organizations need leaders who are willing to be vulnerable with those they lead. The purpose of current study was to explore the relationship between courage, other-centered calling, vulnerability, and leadership differentiation. The sample for the current study included 296 self-identified leaders who report being responsible for the work and development of others. Leaders were primarily Caucasian (83.7%), male (55.9%), and from a church/ministry setting (41.2%). The study occurred over a year span within an online leadership development tool. Moderated mediation in Hayes (2013) PROCESS Macro was used to test the hypotheses. Courage was positively related to vulnerability (B = .226, <i>p</i> = .000), and the relationship between courage and vulnerability was significantly moderated by other-centered calling (B = .112, <i>p</i> = .032). Additionally, the relationship between vulnerability and leadership differentiation was examined and found to be nonsignificant (B = -.004, <i>p</i> = .901). Findings from this study indicate that courage and other-centered calling are key factors in allowing leaders to choose vulnerability with those they lead.</p><p>

Abstract:
<p> A nation-wide study of the leadership requirements for combined emergency management and fire departments from medium-sized municipalities was conducted. It has been widely recognized by the emergency management community and the federal government that emergency management should be professionalized. The first step in professionalization is standardization. The study disclosed that there was an extremely high variability in the training, education and experience requirements for each of the leadership ranks. Not only was there high variability in the requirements for holding each of the ranks, the ranks themselves varied greatly from department to department. The single rank present in all departments was that of chief, and even for that rank, 30% were appointees with no concrete position requirements. Furthermore, the actual requirements for each of the leadership ranks was compared to recommendations from three professional organizations, the International Association of Emergency Managers, the International Association of Fire Chiefs and the National Fire Protection Association. Not only did the actual requirements for each rank vary greatly from the recommendations from each organization, the recommendations between the organizations varied greatly. It is quite clear that even the professional organizations have not come to a consensus of opinion or agreement on requirements, nor are they even close to doing so. Two departmental models were also examined, and once again there was a high variability of requirements for each leadership rank. Although standardization is the first step in professionalization, there has been little movement in that direction. Emergency management has a long way to go if it is to be professionalized, and the safety of the public and nation stand in the balance.</p>

Abstract:
<p> Organizational agility represents a new field of organizational study that is not well examined. In the past organizations had an unmatched competitive advantage due to low competition and higher barriers to entry into their markets. As a result, many organizations dominated their industries. However, in the era of globalization, individuals with an internet connection and the right skills can start new organizations that can compete on a global level. Consequently, organizations now are facing more competition that they experienced in the past. Another reason for increase competition is new technology. Technology is improving increasingly faster than any time in history. Therefore, organizations that are not agile could not survive in the current environment. </p><p> Agile entities realize that they have to become flexible and nimble to withstand competition. Accordingly, the researcher in this study proposes an organizational agility model and this proposed model is the focus of the study. The proposed model significant arises from the fact that currently there are limited numbers of models that help organizations in becoming agile entities. The characteristics in this study were based on Worley and Lawler (2010) &ldquo;Agility and Organization Design: A Diagnostic Framework&rdquo;. The study conducted a survey utilizing an instrument developed by Dr. Worley and Dr. Lawler that contains 15 agility characteristics. The survey uses all 15 characteristics to determine if the organization is agile. In addition, the study utilizes three of the 15 agility characteristics to determent if a relationship occurs between the study variables. </p><p> This quantitative study examined the relationship between change capability, learning capability, shared leadership and organizational agility. Moreover, understanding these relationships could assist scholars and practitioners in producing change programs that emphasize certain behaviors that make an organization agile. The study surveyed 116 participants and found that focusing on change capability, learning capability and shared leadership could contribute in creating agile organizations. Consequently, after evaluating the study results, a new agility model emerged. This model shows that organizations can achieve agility by developing change capability, learning capability, shared leadership, shared purpose and flexible resources. Ultimately, achieving agility could help organizations compete and endure now and the future.</p>

Abstract:
The thesis focuses on the role of leadership communication within a multinational business organization. It aims to confirm the critical importance of communication provided by leaders to their team members. The literature review will focus on the existing communication flows within organizations and the current research results and insights in the field of leadership communication, which is a new, emerging domain of study. Thanks to recent quantitative research (Men, 2014b), it has been already confirmed that leadership communication has a direct effect on employee-organization relationships and overall internal communication. However, qualitative research has been suggested for validation of how the discovered model works in concrete environments (Men, 2014b). Thus, the research section will reveal the findings of in-depth semi-structured interview analysis within a global internal IT services provider which is part of a Group enterprise operating in the logistics industry world-wide. The thesis will culminate in defining logical reasoning for adding communication skills to the company's core competencies for organizational managers and leaders.

Abstract:
Communication is usually seen as a tool for success with organizational change. What makes communication so important is that it lays the foundation for the understanding and perception of the organization and the process of change. This study is about communication between the manager and the employee at times of change. The purpose of this study is not primarily to streamline communication in organizational change, but first and foremost to understand how communication works, what perceptions and reactions create communication between both the manager and the employee. The most important lessons come from six people: three managers and three employees' experiences and perceptions of communication in organizational change in a public organization.  In this study, I explore how managers and employees perceive organizational change, what roles they have in change itself, how their communication works. Here I also discuss what it means to lead change for a manager and to follow the leader for an employee. The results of this study show that there are uncertainties in communication and the desire to improve it. Thanks to this study, it is possible to understand how a lack of communication affects the employee in organizational change, while good communication creates the conditions for successful organizational change.

Abstract:
In the organizations and their management, an important fundamental role is played by the "leadership style", since administrating the working relationships in complex organizations, influences their final results. The decision-making process, in fact, within the organization is influenced by managerial leadership. Before going into the analysis of the various models through which we can propose to read the phenomenal complexity of leadership within business management, this research aims to identify what is leadership and also the roles and dimensions within an organization. The goal of the analysis is to explore the study of leadership styles, from the more formal and authoritarian to the more participative, and to demonstrate the situational leadership approach, which does not presume a unique approach to every situation in order to be successful.

Abstract:
The paper deals with common dilemmas in leading meetings in organizational settings. Meetings are a regular part of our organizational lives, however too often their management is neglected and they stay without strategical focus. In many organizations they are left to coincidence or individual meeting organizers' good will. Professional field of meeting leadership emphasizes that we can accomplish strategic directions and more efficient work by appropriately preparing for the meeting, suitable organizational structure of the meeting framework and suitable leadership and controlling mechanisms. The study was carried out on two samples about solving challenges in leading the meetings based on two developmental methods which are presented in the paper. The paper states that for successful and efficient leadership of the meeting one needs to elaborate specific roles at the meeting, take care of organization and climate at the meeting.

Abstract:
There has always been discussion about how transformational leadership influences empoyees` job satisfaction and by doing so positively influences their performance. It is the main goal of this paper to analyze the influence of transformational leadership on job satisfaction. The data used for the analysis was collected via standardized internet survey in German. In the survey two standardized questionnaires were used: The SAZ (Scale for measuring job satisfaction) and the LSA (Leadership Style Assistant). The results demonstrate a statistically significant correlation between transformational leadership and job satisfaction with a beta of 0.417 (p&lt;.01). Next to the main finding, it can be shown, that the influence of transformational leadership on job satisfaction is stronger for male employees with higher education. It can be shown, that transformational leadership is a way to improve empoyees` job satisfaction although individual employees react different depending on gender and education. That can be explained by different expectations on leadership as well as the influence of leadership on work organization, flexibility and inspiration.

Abstract:
Safety leadership is a key factor in promoting safety performance in organizations. Managers need safety leadership competencies when motivating employee safety participation and compliance, as well as in improving the related safety outcomes. Based on the current research, certain safety leadership styles are vital with regard to safety performance. By developing these competencies, organizations may improve their effectiveness via better safety performance. Information on a managers’ safety leadership competence is required in order to develop their competencies and to develop safety training for managers. The objective of this study is to suggest efficient safety leadership competencies for managers, and discuss the importance of developing managers’ safety leadership competence. The results are based on a literature review and 18 interviews carried out in a Finnish expert organization. The results were structured according to the transactional and transformational leadership facets based on leadership theory. The results point out the importance of all traditional facets of transactional and transformational leadership with relation to safety performance, and the idealized influence leadership facet was emphasized. Other important facets were inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and management by exception. Both the transactional and transformational safety leadership competencies of the managers should be trained and developed.

Abstract:
Natural, social, political, technological and economic environment of an organization constantly change making timely and relevant information and knowledge critical for competitive advantage and business success. Such constant changes can cause disruption and with it need for adaptation of business models, digital transformation and improvement of knowledge management systems. Digital business and digital workforce are being even more accentuated with ongoing epidemic and new information technologies emerge to help organizations in achieving their goals. Information technology is an important element of knowledge management that supports its processes of creation, acquisition, storage, sharing and application of organizational knowledge. Other important elements, or classic pillars, are organization, leadership and learning. They all include people and people really are key enablers of development and progress. Technology, processes and people in organization are intertwined;:they change and are changed by each other, and are specific for each organization. Knowledge management makes use of those connections to foster organizational change, but is also influenced and changed by them.

Abstract:
" From the Executive Summary: ""The purpose of the World Leadership Survey (WLS) is to provide a window into how professionals, managers, and executives view their life within the organization. This view of the employee experience will help leaders of organizations understand what employees experience, and what the organization can do to improve commitment and reduce turnover. The good news for organizations in the United States and Canada (the sample for this report) is that respondents are mostly committed to their organizations, satisfied with their jobs and their pay, work more than the typical 40-hour workweek, and do not currently intend to leave their jobs. The professionals, managers, and executives surveyed feel supported by their organization and by their direct supervisor, and think that their organizations are economically stable. Unfortunately they also feel overloaded, with their work disproportionately interfering with the rest of life, and that there is a high level of political behavior within their organization. Both overload and overt political behavior can reduce individual and organizational effectiveness. This report describes the current employee experience, and what organizations can focus on to maintain and improve commitment and engagement."

Abstract:
"Are you taking a closer look at “learning transfer”? Are you wondering how to make sure the lessons taught through your leadership training and development efforts stick weeks, months, or years later? As a professional interested in learning and development, you may be in a position to acknowledge and help overcome the challenges to learning in your organizations. You are likely in a position to influence supervisors and executives, as well as potential participants, in leadership development efforts. You may also have a role in creating and supporting a learning environment. With a better understanding of learning transfer, you can help your organization realize multiple benefits, including bigger impact from developmental experiences, more effective leaders, and a stronger organizational ability to learn and adapt. Read on to learn CCL’s perspective on and best practices for learning transfer for leadership development. We share a framework—and specific tactics—that we use in designing leadership development solutions. With this information, you can begin to help leaders and your organization overcome challenges to learning transfer—and earn greater benefit from leadership development investments."

Abstract:
"A recent industry trend survey of CEOs found that only 11% of organizations report having a strong enough bench to fill leadership roles (Rhyne, 2021). As such, effective leadership development is an imperative for any high-performing organization. Rather than focusing time, money, and energy on only a small subset of “high-potential” employees, organizations can realize the full potential of their entire workforce by providing tech-enabled leadership development to leaders at all levels. This paper shares the following insights for Chief Learning Officers interested in leveraging evidence-based practices to accelerate leader development at scale and unlock the collective potential of their workforce: • A brief overview of why we need new ways to develop leaders and a high-level description of the new digital assessment and development tools that meet individuals where they are – offering a highly personalized approach to development in-the-flow of work. • A review of eight research-based learning practices that provide a foundation for leveraging technology to make in-the-flow leadership development better, faster, and more accessible to leaders at all levels. For every learning practice, we provide implementation tips and discuss illustrative example tools. • We conclude with a discussion around the strategic use of the eight learning practices for enabling better organization-wide development outcomes.

Full text
Abstract:
"When individual contributors or professionals are promoted into their first formal leadership position, many do not realize how tough that transition can be for them. We often hear that these leaders are not prepared, and lack the support and development to help make that transition successfully. When they are not supported, they suffer, and so too do their teams, the organization, and the HR leadership pipeline, which ultimately can negatively impact the organization’s bottom line. First-time managers are an important part of an organization’s talent and succession management. In turn, organizations may attempt to help first-time managers make the transition into leadership easier by implementing a formal mentoring program. This white paper supports this effort by: • Explaining the benefits a mentoring program can provide for first-time managers and their mentor. • Providing organizations a way to strengthen their own mentoring programs. • Offering HR leaders specific steps to follow and best practices applied in starting and maintaining a successful formal mentoring program specifically aimed at first-time managers. Formal mentoring programs are useful to support and develop first-time managers, an important leadership population that is vital for strengthening your leadership pipeline and succession management efforts. Armed with the knowledge from this white paper, we believe you will be able to gain a competitive advantage".

Abstract:
If you could ask 275 senior executive leaders about how to lead change, what would they have to say? What if they talked about the most important factors for success, what you should do more of, do less of, or avoid all together? What if their experiences could help you lead change in your organization and provide an early warning system to avoid failure? Do we have your attention? If you are a leader facing complex business challenges in your organization that require changes in the way people have always done things, we offer the following insights from the senior executives we asked about their experiences in leading change: 1. Change yourself. Leading change successfully means spending time outside of your comfort zone. As the individual leading an initiative you must change your mindset, actions, and behaviors. 2. Don’t go it alone. Leading change is a team activity. People come together driven by a compelling, and frequently communicated, message about why we are changing. 3. Know the signs . Recognize the early warning signs that indicate an initiative is starting to derail.
