Leadership Theory-Based Change

488 Words2 Pages

The second theory-based change that I could make is handling conflict with a smile. This is related to the service leadership theory because all leaders deal with conflict (Daft, 2014). I have to learn that conflict is nothing personal, it’s just business. Maybe a smile isn’t always appropriate, but stress isn’t worth it. Finally, the third theory-based change I could take care of myself first by making sure that I eat right, exercise, get enough sleep and meditate. In other words, do what it takes to decrease my stress to make me a calmer and happier person; this in turn will allow me to be a better servant leader(Daft, 2014). This relates to the servant leadership theory because being a better, nicer and happier person all of the time makes me want to serve others the best way I can. d. Discuss …show more content…

Discuss as least two specific actions you will take to reach each of the SMART goals discussed in part I have identified two actions I will take to reach my first SMART goal of meditating five minutes four days a week for six months. The first action I will use is I will set my alarm to get up five minutes earlier four days a week to allow myself time to meditate before my day starts. The second action I will use is I will keep a log in my phone of what days I meditate, with the plan being specifically the four days that I work because those are the most stressful. I have also identified two actions I will take to reach my second SMART goal of using conflict resolution strategies with my children on a daily basis for the next six months. The first action I will use is listening skills. I will listen to both sides of the story without judgement, and I will ask them to put each other in the others shoes at the time of the incident. This will create empathy for the other person and allow them to see what they are both experiencing. The second action I will use is role playing. This will show them how they really sound and look to each other through their own

    Introduction The most complex and dynamic organizations to control and to manage are the healthcare organizations. The nature and the structure of the healthcare organizations necessitate the managers to provide both the leadership controls and the management of powers to all the stakeholders in the field (Kelly 2011). Indeed, the constraints and the scope of the roles and tasks carried out to provide efficient services to the general public are so diverse that a single staff can’t operate on their own without the help of the other individuals. For proper functionality of the organizations in the health sector, coordination and the management of powers is crucial as it ensures the objectives of the firm are achieved.

People, who followed, must believe that a leader understood their needs and had their interests at heart. There was a consensus among researchers that leadership

Without leadership a group of human beings quickly degenerates into argument and conflict,because we see things in different ways and lean toward different solutions.

  • Servant Leadership Theory

    In my view, the two leadership theories discussed are in consonance with my perspective that a leader is to serve the interest of his subordinate’s as they are the largest members of any organization. I also believe that subordinate being the least members of organizations should be appreciated and considered at all times as this is vital for sustaining the workforce and developing employee commitment to employers. Also both Servant and Transformational leadership styles, hinge their ideology on honesty, humility, vision, and authority as these key elements are active qualities continuously engage by me in my organization. I strongly believe that for any organization to keep evolving in the ever dynamic business world, employee motivation and acknowledgment is important as these are displayed by both leadership theories. I have discovered from recent times that the reason why employees resign from their work place is not that they hate their managers, but because they were not adequately motivated and acknowledged for accomplishments in that organization as their manages take credit for jobs done and enforces subordinates to serve their interest which should be the reverse.
