I'm supposed to be studying, but I loved this chapter so much that it distacted me... I googled more about the theory and thought about sharing some of it here:
(subject: Enterprise Management)
Managers and leaders.
"Management can be exercised over resources, activities, projects and other non-personal things. Leadership can only be exercised over people.
Transactional vs Transformational leaders.
_ Transactional leaders see the relationship with their followers in terms of a trade:
they give followers the rewards they want in exchange for service, loyalty and compliance.
_Transformational leaders see their role as inspiring and motivating others to work at levels beyond compliance. Only transformational leadership can change a team / organisation's culture and create new direction.
*** a transformational leader has vision.
**** a transformational leader is able to anticipate ( the leader possesses foresight )
***** a transformational leader has value-congruence. (has the emotional capacity to empathise with people or with a group)
******this kind of leader will empower the group with the aim to make the group more effective.
The leader will be aware of her own needs and goals.
awesome stuff!
May you be a Monday- transformational leader!
cheers
