...HRM Research Proposal Human Resource Managers Perceptions of Leader Emotional Intelligence and its Effect on Employee Commitment: A Phenomenological Study ____________________________________________ [Insert name of Researcher] [Insert name of Institution] [Insert date of submission] Problem Statement Human Resource professionals are closely involved in all aspects of employee turnover and occupy a unique role in the organization, interacting between executives and all other employees (Gentry, 2006). Human Resource professionals are involved in organizational decision-making, liaising with senior leadership and with employees at all levels of the organization as an aspect of personnel administration and recruitment, selection, and termination (Gentry, 2006). This unique position gives Human Resources a clear overview of the personnel within the organization (Wielemaker & Flint, 2005). Leadership plays an important role in the success of an organization (Bass, 1990), and the emotional intelligence of the leader has an impact on the organization (Goleman et al., 2002). Affective commitment is important for reducing turnover (Morrow, 1993). It remains unclear whether the emotional intelligence of the leader affects employees’ commitment.

...Executive |Summary Motivation, Leadership and management and human resource management are important factors in the working of any organization. Each of them have certain theories or principles founded by various researchers and scholars. These theories have gained some criticisms over time. Under motivation there are two types of theories: content and process theories. Content theories include Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, Herzberg’s Motivation-Hygiene theory. Process theories include equity theory and expectancy theory. The organizational example is that of a robotics’ manufacturing firm. Leadership and management includes trait theory of leadership, leader behavior theories which focuses on the Michigan Studies and The Ohio state studies and contingency theories of leadership which includes Fiedler’s Contingency theory and the |Path – Goal theory of leadership. This is followed by the fourteen principles of management. The organizational example is that of Continental |Airlines.

...GLOBAL LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT BUS 439 Lori Wieters 08/01/2011 The development of globally competent leaders has been widely recognized as a critical factor in the future success of multinational companies. It is no surprise that global leadership development is one of the key human resource issues of chief executives in multinational firms a shortage of global leaders is becoming an increasing problem for multinational companies, slowing down and sometimes hindering the implementation of global strategies and leading to lower bottom-line results. Organizations are struggling today to identify both current and future global leaders, they are also failing to help these global leaders to acquire the skills and best practices necessary to succeed in the face of greater globalization. Most global leadership development programs fail primarily due to the lack of a coordinated internal process to create, flexible, and visionary leaders who can hold multiple perspectives in different environments. Some of the issues associated with global leadership development occurs where “a lot of career politics are associated with getting visibility early in the eyes of top management so that one will be given the challenging jobs that count. How- ever, there are real dilemmas associated with the age when potential should be identified—early or late?” (Evans, P., Pucik, V., Bjorkman, I., p. 336). The challenge is the amount of time, effort and investment it takes to develop globally...
