Resilient Leadership: Major General Bob Dees

313 Words2 Pages

Three key principles that I took away from Major General Bob Dees’ lecture on “Resilient Leadership” is: 1. Make sure your people have a “Vision” – give you people a clear vision for the future end-result/purpose, which will propel them forward with expectation, purpose, perseverance which increases resiliency. 2. Create a “Team” – build your people into a team that consists of interdependent individuals who each bring a unique function toward accomplishing a shared vision and mission. Create a mentality of “we” and not “me.” 3. Set a culture of “Reality” – Leaders must set a culture that deals with realities, not matter how difficult. Leaders should avoid creating a “fantasy” that everything is good because it will only magnify the consequences

    “Leadership is the process of influencing people by providing purpose, direction, and motivation to accomplish the mission and improve the organization” defined in ADP 6-22. I truly believe in order to provide purpose, leaders need to understand the big picture, when providing direction, a leader needs to properly understand the situation, and for a leader to provide the motivation you need to know your Soldiers. Being an effective Leader in the United States Army is very complex. As a Leader we need to be able to adapt to our ever changing environment.

    Individuals often respond to stressful situations based on how their leader handles the situation under stress. Leaders create and maintain a positive working environment. Studies have shown that leaders who consistently out perform their peers not only have the technical skills required, but more importantly, have mastered most of the aspects of EI. Leaders who regulate themselves effectively do not verbally attack others, make rushed or emotional decisions, stereotype people or compromise their values. Let’s look at the scenario below: Scenario: “You have just come from your 6 month

    Papathanasiou et al. (2014, p. 407) outline authentic leadership as the ability to influence the actions and behaviour of individuals to work together to achieve their goals. Additionally, Goffee and Jones (2005, p. 87) describe authentic leadership as a real thing, an attribute that uniquely defines great leaders. Furthermore, they highlight that authentic leaders are highly attuned to their environment and that whilst they retain their distinctiveness they understand how to strongly influence and win acceptance in strong cultures and how to utilise those cultures as a basis for radical change. President Kennedy also displayed attributes of an effective transformational leader in a time of crisis and sought to inspire and encourage the population to develop and achieve their greatest potential.

  • Authentic Leadership Vs Adaptive Leadership

    1398 Words  | 6 Pages

    Change is inevitable and follower-based leadership can help to alleviate transitional stresses that may occur. Challenges in this leadership style are adaptive, technical, and a combination of the two. Technical challenges can only be solved by experts, adaptive challenges can be solved with leader encouragement and are not easy to identify, both challenges can be solved with leaders and followers working together (Northouse, 2016, pp.261-263). Adaptive leadership should inspire mobilization, motivation, and organization in followers (Northouse, 2016, p.258). Adaptive and technical challenges combined and adaptive challenges alone can be remedied with leader behaviors, like regulating distress and protecting leadership voices below, that encourage followers to continue to strive for their best and essentially the good of the organization also.

  • Transactional Leadership: A Case Study

    488 Words  | 2 Pages

    Transactional Leadership Frequently referred to as a managerial approach to leadership, the transactional leadership style is centered on improving efficiencies within an organization or team (McShane & Von Glinow, 2015). Leaders practicing the transactional approach focus on the details of the step by step processes and workflows using a reward and punishment system to encourage workgroup production (Dartey-Baah, 2015). As errors and inconsistent results are part of the expected norm, transactional leaders succumb to the belief that employees require ongoing monitoring and supervision to ensure compliance with the expected work practices. When used with an experienced high performing staff, the constant supervision and punitive nature of the transactional leadership style can be counterproductive, causing a decrease in production and satisfaction among some groups. In contrast, when used with newly formed production units, the transactional style has been known to improve employee engagement and response (Breevaart et al., 2014).

    Through self-reflection and academic readings, I have discovered that I identify with three different leadership theories. During the first meeting in a Strength Based Leadership class, we were asked to write our leadership history. The class then began an ongoing exploration of various leadership theories. Upon reviewing my leadership history from the first class and synthesizing the information from the theories that were examined, I discovered that I most resonate with the Trait Leadership Theory, the Skills Leadership Theory, and the Path-Goal Leadership theory. These theories are leader focused, describing the process and techniques a leader uses to accomplish goals.
