शैडोइंग अभ्यास: Leadership: Managing People Unit 5 - वीडियो के साथ अंग्रेजी बोलना सीखें

Hi, everyone.

This is Dr. Laura Portolese, and I'm here to discuss some of the main concepts in Unit 5 in the Course Managing People.

Let's go ahead and get started.

Our Course Managing People is divided into eight units, and in this video, we're going to be talking about Unit 5, which is about leadership.

I know it's important to consider the learning objectives in each unit that you're studying in this course,

and that's because all of the course material as well as the exam questions are tied to the learning objectives.

So let's take a look at the learning objectives for this unit together.

The first one is categorize behavioral styles such as laissez -faire, autocratic, democratic, transformational, transactional, or charismatic,

and models of situational leadership using the contingency approach.

Our second learning objective is characterize leader effectiveness based on theories and traits of leadership,

such as behavioral theory and modern trait theory.

Assess the effects of leadership on human support systems and workforce planning to ensure employee well -being and achieve high organizational performance.

Compare the characteristics of trustworthy leaders such as fairness role models trust and followers passionate inspirational

alignment of values and actions to those of unworthy leaders such as narcissistic

abuse power irrational leaders and finally explain the benefits of organizational trust

and its role in conflict management and creating a collaborative culture

so now that we've discussed the learning objectives let's take a look at the major topics that we're going to be addressing.

The slide here lists the vocabulary that we will be discussing throughout this video

and also words that you should know and be comfortable with to get yourself ready for the practice exam.

The major topics in this unit include examples of behavioral styles of leadership.

We'll also discuss approaches to leadership and trait leadership styles.

We'll talk about trustworthy versus untrustworthy leaders.

We'll discuss workplace planning in leadership, and we'll also address leadership trust and collaboration.

One of the major cornerstones

when we look at leadership styles is whether a leader is task centered or whether they're employee centered.

A task centered style is really focused, as the name suggests on getting the task done

so they're focused on what that end goal is

and what the team should achieve in getting the work done an employee -centered style is more focused on relationships

and how to build relationships building trust and development of the employees

usually we'll see that the best leaders have a combination of a task -centered style

and an employee -centered style

and one isn't necessarily better than the other as we'll discuss a little bit later in this unit we like

and should consider taking a situational approach

so depending on the situation we may tend to use one style

or another it also could depend on the personalities of our employees the task at hand

and many other variables but the important thing to remember here is

that the task -centered style is focused on getting things done, while the employee -centered style is focused on the relationship building and the relationships.

When we look at leadership styles, we have three main styles that we can consider.

The first is an autocratic style, and in this style, this is when the leader makes all of the decisions and they don't get input from employees.

and while this sounds negative in some situations it might be consider some decisions

that a manager or a leader has to make where they need to be autocratic

so that could be salary decisions and where there's maybe a process already in place

so there are some decisions

that maybe are emergency where in an emergency you don't want

to get input you need to just make a quick decision and go with it.

So again, depending on the situation, the autocratic style may be a fine one to use, but in general day -to -day management,

one of these two other styles based on the situation is better to be used

and a little bit more motivational to your employees.

The next style is democratic, and democratic refers to participation

and allowing employees to participate in the decision -making process this is good

because a lot of times

when people are allowed to have a say in the process

they tend to have more buy -in into the task

that needs to be accomplished so this is an ideal style in a lot of situations

but as we've already addressed That's not necessarily all of them.

In a laissez -faire style, the leader or the manager tends to let their employees make all of the decisions.

And again, based on the situation, this can be a good thing.

If the employees are very well trained, very experienced, it may be fine to let them make a lot of the decisions.

But you as a leader may still have to make some of the decisions.

So as you can see from the discussion of these, it's really based on situation when, as a leader, you may want to use a different style,

one versus the other.

But generally speaking, it's a good idea to involve your employees in decisions

and gaining their input as they probably have a lot of valuable insight that you could gain from.

One of the interesting theories that this unit happens to talk about is the idea of the PATH goal model.

And if you look at the figure located here, you can see that there's leader behavior as well as situational factors

that ultimately are combined to influence the outcomes they hope to achieve.

So those outcomes for subordinates or employees would be satisfaction, high performance, as well as motivation.

So when we look at leader behavior, we look at whether or not the leader is supportive

or maybe they use more of a directive type style of leadership or participative.

And then we also look at the situational factors that go into that,

which really is based on the work environment and the individual subordinate or employee characteristics.

For example, if an employee is very new, you're probably not going to use much of a participative approach.

It might need to be directive until they learn their job.

In other words, what this model tells us is that depending on a situation, we want to think of our own behavior as a leader,

the situational factors, combine those, and figure out the best way that we can influence the outcomes that we want,

which include motivation, satisfaction, and performance.

As we continue to talk about leadership styles, there are a few other styles that we should address that were discussed in Unit 5.

And one of those is a transformational leadership style or transformational leader.

And these are the leaders that inspire others.

They're very passionate.

They have a lot of vision for the future

when you think of leaders like steve jobs of apple you see them standing on a stage

and they're very charismatic and inspirational this is a transformational leader this is someone

that motivates people based on their own passion and their own vision

and when we look at the somewhat of the opposite of

that we can look at transactional leaders and transactional leaders ultimately are

that more task -centered style

that we talked about earlier they're focused on getting the job

done getting the tasks complete in order to meet the goal

now it's important to note

that one style is well let me say this necessarily it may not be one style

or the other you may have someone that's a great transformational leader

but they're also a good transactional leader you may somewhat have someone

or a leader that's not very uh that doesn't have a ton of vision

and they're not this great speaker but they're really good at getting the job done

so just keep in mind one necessarily isn't better than the

other oftentimes it depends on people's individual style their their abilities

and personality of course the last definition here is the idea of servant leaders.

And when we hear of a servant leadership style, that type of leadership style is not very task focused,

100

but instead is focused on serving the people that work for them and helping individuals with growth.

101

So these types of leaders tend to be very supportive.

102

They try to create opportunities for people to grow and learn

103

and continually do better and better within their job theory x

104

and theory y is a fairly classic style and this is more

105

geared toward the trade idea of leadership rather than behaviors so

106

when we think of theory y

107

and x we want to think about this is how the leader thinks

108

and internalizes things and therefore their actions probably follow the way

109

that they think so our theory x leader will tend to believe

110

that people don't like work they need to be coerced into getting things done

111

and they're really not going to take initiative they need a leader in order to stay focused and move forward

112

the opposite of this is our theory y leaders and theory was um believe that people get inner satisfaction from work.

113

They know that if they're given the chance, they're happy to share ideas and participate in the process of decision -making.

114

So if we take a step back and we think about these two different approaches, probably no leader is extremely one or extremely the other,

115

but maybe somewhere in the middle.

116

But the important thing to remember with this theory is that how people think and how a leader reasons

117

is ultimately how they're going to interact with their employees.

118

So when we look at theory X, if you assume that people don't like work,

119

you're probably not going to be that motivated to create development opportunities

120

and allow the person to grow as an individual within the organization,

121

because that's not your core belief in terms of individuals and how they feel about work.

122

So while this theory is fairly black and white, everything sort of falls in the middle, and we find that some leaders have some of these characteristics or beliefs,

123

but maybe not all of them.

124

So that's the important thing to keep in mind.

125

We've already addressed the contingency theory a little bit, and that's the idea that, depending on a situation, we may want to use a different leadership style.

126

And we can look at that through this model,

127

contingency model, and we can look on the bottom left where it says leader -member relations,

128

task structure, as well as leader position power.

129

So what the contingency theory tells us is that we can look at these three elements, whether they're weak or strong,

130

high or low, and ultimately determine the best way to behave in a situation.

131

So for example, if we look right where the leader -member relations are poor and the task structure is low,

132

so it's a little bit ambiguous and people are unsure what they should be doing, and then the leader position power is also weak,

133

in this type of situation, then we should really just focus on the task.

134

Because as a leader, we don't have great relations, we don't have a great position for, so therefore we should focus on the task at hand.

135

So what this chart does is it helps inform us about

136

which direction we want to go and what type of leadership style we may want to implement depending on the situation.

137

Now, of course, nothing is black and white, so this is going to be very situational, and there may be some situations where you need to use

138

a combination of approach such as a more directive style in the beginning

139

but a more participative style at the end of a project for example

140

so the important thing to remember is that any type of contingency theory

141

when we talk about leadership essentially means

142

that we want to look at the individual situation

143

and base our leadership style based on that situation our next topic in this unit is about nightmare leadership traits.

144

And those have been coined TNT leadership or three nightmare traits of leadership.

145

And those three traits are dishonesty, disagreeableness, and carelessness.

146

So dishonesty, of course, this doesn't create trust for the organization and it doesn't help with satisfaction for employees.

147

So of course, this is a trait that we want to avoid.

148

When we look at disagreeable leaders, this type of individual will tend to be overly critical,

149

they'll be inflexible, and they'll try to create a culture of fear where people only do things

150

because they're afraid of losing their job, for example.

151

So of course, this is a very negative trait in a leader.

152

Carelessness is the third trait that we will address here, and that's where there isn't much attention paid to work.

153

It's sloppy.

154

They tend to be very impulsive individuals.

155

So when we look at these traits, they can become part of a toxic trait of leadership,

156

which is, of course, very negative in just about any workplace because we find that toxic don't listen well.

157

They tend to never think that they're wrong.

158

It's all about them.

159

It's all about their ego they have a need to control everything

160

and really everything that they do within the organization is about their power

161

and their feelings of power

162

so of course as leaders we want to have these these traits

163

and we want to avoid being a toxic leader

164

but it's something to consider

165

when you think about your own experiences maybe at a past job

166

or a current job ways that you can work around these types of leaders

167

which can be a challenge

168

because as you can tell many of them are just simply personality traits

169

that can be difficult so

170

if we're in a position where we're able to promote people we definitely want to ensure

171

that they don't have these traits if they take on a leadership position.

172

We're now moving away a bit from our discussion on leadership traits, and we're going to talk a little bit about leadership

173

and managing people as it relates to planning and strategy when you're thinking about the people that work for you.

174

So it's a circular process, as you can see from this figure, where first we engage in strategic planning

175

and then we look at our current workforce the skills

176

and abilities they have and we do an analysis on

177

that then next we want to consider future requirements of our workforce

178

so what kind of skills

179

and traits do we need people in the future to have based on our strategic plan

180

and then we look at a gap analysis a gap analysis here is our ideal state here is where we're currently at,

181

what gaps ultimately exist.

182

Now, once we identify those gaps with our workforce,

183

then we can focus on planning for action and putting together a hiring plan together and creating job descriptions if need be.

184

And then finally, we can look at the execution and evaluation of the plan.

185

So once we execute it, when we determine from a strategic perspective how many people we need and what type of positions are going to be in,

186

then we want to take a step back and then evaluate it later to make sure that we're not missing anything.

187

And then that then again, of course, starts the cycle over again.

188

There's probably no more important process when you have a managing people as this one

189

and the ability to really look at your strategic plan

190

and tie that strategic plan to what your human capital needs

191

or be very very important process

192

and very important to be aware of as you can imagine

193

and as we've alluded to a little bit already

194

when we look at leadership one of the most important components

195

from an employee perspective is having trust within the leadership

196

and we can define trust as the confidence in another person's goodwill

197

and when we look at the sources of trust in an organization there

198

for example we could trust someone just because we're familiar with them

199

because we've interacted with them enough we may have trust

200

because our organization has a set of values and norms

201

and we see that the leader follows that so

202

that creates an environment of trust past experience is another method where we can begin to trust someone.

203

We've had a positive experience with someone.

204

For example, they followed through on a promise, and that can help build trust as well.

205

Of course, of that, when we don't trust the leadership in our organization, we see that there are productivity issues,

206

communication issues, and empowerment issues, which, of course, all of these can lead to an ineffective work environment

207

that is not very productive and doesn't do as well, doesn't live up to its potential, we can say.

208

So trust in leadership is extremely important.

209

Now that we're finished with this unit, let's talk a little bit about what you've learned.

210

This unit on leadership, we talked about different types of leadership styles, such as laissez -faire, autocratic, democratic, and transformational, and several others.

211

We also talked about leadership effectiveness based on theories

212

and different traits of leadership we discussed how leadership can help human support systems

213

and vice versa we also talked about workforce planning we talked about the characteristics of trustworthy leaders

214

to untrustworthy leaders and made some comparisons on those

215

and finally we talked about the benefits of organizational trust within an organization

216

and especially with leadership let's take a look now at what's

217

next to prepare you for the practice exam i definitely recommend

218

that you do another review of the material maybe especially some of the material that you had some challenges with

219

once you review that material you should be all set to take the practice exam

220

and i wish you the best of luck on that
