...trustworthiness, leadership and ethical stewardship influences organizational members to trust their leaders, thus operating a successful organization. In order to understand how these three elements merge in order to create a culture of trust within the organization, we must investigate each of the three elements and understand what an organization is. Organization People working together in a structured environment who strive to achieve a common goal or objective is an organization. Some organizations are businesses which exist to market goods and/or services in order to generate profits. Others are non-profit in nature, such as community youth sports leagues, community service groups like shelters and food banks and churches which exist to serve the spiritual needs of society. Regardless of their purpose, all organizations share one attribute; they must be run by effective people who can instill the organization’s core values/cultures and motivate others to passionately work to achieve the organizations goals, effectively and efficiently. In other words, they require leadership. Leadership Leadership is defined by individuals differently. Regardless of the definition, leadership has the same final outcome. This writer’s definition of leadership is: the art of influencing others to accomplish the task, job or goal at hand with available resources, employees, time and money. Basic leadership traits within resource utilization focus on job-centered leadership necessary...

Authentic leadership and its application to modern leadership Authentic leadership is an approach to leadership that emphasizes building the leader’s legitimacy through honest relationships with followers which values their input and are built through honest relationships with followers which value their input and are built on an ethical foundation.

...What Is Servant Leadership? Servant leadership is a philosophy and set of practices that enriches the lives of individuals, builds better organizations and ultimately creates a more just and caring world. While servant leadership is a timeless concept, the phrase “servant leadership” was coined by Robert K. Greenleaf in The Servant as Leader, an essay that he first published in 1970. In that essay, Greenleaf said: “The servant-leader is servant first… It begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. That person is sharply different from one who is leader first, perhaps because of the need to assuage an unusual power drive or to acquire material possessions…The leader-first and the servant-first are two extreme types. Between them there are shadings and blends that are part of the infinite variety of human nature.” “The difference manifests itself in the care taken by the servant-first to make sure that other people’s highest priority needs are being served. The best test, and difficult to administer, is: Do those served grow as persons? Do they, while being served, become healthier, wiser, freer, more autonomous, more likely themselves to become servants? And, what is the effect on the least privileged in society? Will they benefit or at least not be further deprived?“ A servant-leader focuses primarily on the growth and well-being of people and the communities to which they belong. While traditional...

...Changes in the work environment have brought around a need for businesses to become aware of the type of culture they provide to current and prospective employees, as well as their customers. This has become a piece of the workplace that new applicants are taking into consideration when looking for a new job or career, current employees use this as a reason to stay, and company leadership uses this as an opportunity to build employee and customer loyalty. While it is the desire of many companies to create the right culture, it is a major challenge for companies and their leaders (John & Sons, 2007). Interstates Company and Goodwill Industries (specifically looking at the Sioux City, IA location) have worked hard to create cultures that support their employees and their customers. While they produce and/or sell completely different products, the choices they have made about their work environments have some similarities. Culture can be challenging to define since it may vary greatly from one business to another. Steven McShane and Mary Ann von Glinow in Organizational Behavior defined culture as: It is the basic pattern of shared assumptions, value and beliefs governing the way employees within an organization think about and act on problems and opportunities…It (culture) defines what is important and unimportant in the company. You might think of it as the organization’s DNA—invisible to the naked eye, yet a powerful template that shapes what happens in the workplace (John...

...Richardson Servant Leadership vs. Traditional Leadership CA 233 Introduction to Leadership Professor Caroline Heckman Leadership has been thought to be a trait, ability, a skill, a behavior, a relationship and an influenced process. There are general descriptions of leadership that can be broken down into many forms. While the traditional style of leadership still exist and is very prevalent, there are several modern leadership styles that have been created throughout the years. One modern style of leadership is servant leadership. This may actually sound like an oxymoron because how can you be a servant and leader at the same time. However, this leadership has been found to very effective in some settings. There has been a rise in new forms of leadership style due to people feeling that the traditional style of leadership just doesn’t work anymore. Traditional leadership has evolved to so many different forms of leadership one that will be discussed specifically is servant leadership. First, I will compare the basis of each type of leadership.

...Jackie Robinson is everything a leader should be viewed as. For those of you who do not know of Jackie or his story, it’s quite an amazing one and he displays the utmost highest respect to all of his followers. Jackie Robinson was the first African-American to ever play in the Major Leagues of Baseball. He started his rookie season on April 15, 1947, and went on to thrive breaking the strong color barrier that had been around the Major Leagues since 1876. He not only was the first African America to play baseball but he displayed honor and respect to every person on the field and off the field he came in contact with. His career helped drive the civil rights movement that started in the 1950s and 1960s. Jackie had a way of presenting himself to people no matter what color they were. He was known to be an aggressive man yet only when standing up for his civil rights. He always hated injustice things and would do whatever was in his power to seek out solutions to anything he could. I particular event that occurred and that many people honored were when Jackie was in the army. He had the courage to stand up on the bus and tell the sergeant who wanted him to go to the back of the bus ‘No’. This caused an outrage and Jackie went on to be court-martialed for his guts to fight for civil rights. Jackie was a firm believer in facing his problems head on and he was never an ‘avoider’. Upon most of all Jackie’s success in the Major Leagues, it was mainly because he had the courage and...

...Introduction My definition of leadership is having a lasting impression on others, and not only inspiring them, but making a physical difference in their lives (hopefully in a good way). To have this ability to make impressions and differences, you need communication skills. One who cannot communicate well will never be a leader. A leader must know how to speak so his ideas are understood in the correct way. The next aspect of effective leadership is the ability to make decisions to change, and not always stick to the status quo. What good are leaders who are afraid of change? Another aspect of leadership is the ability to handle failure, because this is an aspect of leadership whether we want to believe it or not. My experiences in life have greatly influenced my definition of leadership. Throughout my career and life I have had a chance to experience different leadership styles and theories exhibited by different people. I have learned to use the good and not use the bad when dealing with followers. Different people and different situations require different approaches, as well as different styles and theories. The theories I will explore in my research that has also influenced my thinking on leadership and leaders are Transformational Leadership, Leader-Member Exchange Theory, and Servant Leadership. Philosophy Transformational leadership is a leadership style that I admire and hope to use effectively when I return to work. “Transformational leaders integrate...

Charismatic Leaders pay a great deal of attention in scanning and reading their environment, and are good at picking up the moods and...
