A Contingency Model of Team Leadership for Emergency Medical TeamsKemp, Andeneshea Shacardia 22 September 2014 (has links)
Emergency medical teams operate under unusual circumstances. They assemble for a singular, temporary purpose, potentially change in size and composition, and their performance can influence whether a patient lives or dies. Although leadership is a critical component to team success, it is rarely investigated in the context of emergency medical teams. This study sought to examine the relationship between directive leadership behaviors and team performance outcomes. It was hypothesized that directive leadership would be particularly effective for emergency medical teams. In addition, a contingency model was proposed. Specifically, it was hypothesized that the effectiveness of directive leadership is contingent upon the complexity of the situation and the experience level of the team such that directive leadership is more effective when teams are inexperienced and the situation is complex. Neonatal resuscitation teams served as the emergency medical teams in this study. The proposed relationships were tested using observations from high-fidelity, neonatal resuscitation team training simulations. Hypotheses were not supported. Limitations and suggestions for future research for the development of leadership training curriculum are discussed.

Leadership and Military Power – Can a Leadership Approach Provide a Competitive Advantage?Skelly, Lawrence E, III 01 January 2023 (has links) (PDF)
Leadership and Military Power – Can a Leadership Approach Provide a Competitive Advantage? When does a military commander's leadership approach give his or her unit a performance advantage? U.S. Army senior leaders have asserted that forces led using the mission command approach will have an edge in future combat. Mission command decentralizes decision-making to empower subordinates to react more successfully and seize battlefield opportunities. American forces have struggled to employ mission command partly because of a lack of understanding of the approach. This study applied two concepts from organizational psychology, empowering leadership and directive leadership, to better define and examine mission command and an opposing approach, detailed command. I observed three combat-like exercises at the U.S. Army's Combat Training Centers to evaluate the impact of leadership on unit performance. Using qualitative data gained from my observations and interviews with unit leaders, I found that empowering leadership/ mission command could provide significant advantages to units with high team experience. However, I found that empowered units with low team experience tended to perform worse than similar units led by directive leadership/ detailed command.

Der Aufbau von Leitungsstrukturen in Gemeindegründungsarbeiten der Brüdergemeinden in Deutschland / The development of leadership structures in brethren church planting in GermanySchafer, Rene 30 November 2004 (has links)
One of the deciding factors for successful church planting is the development of leadership structures. The New Testament demonstrates the care church planters must take with this issue, and delineates the requirements future leaders must meet in order to lead the church upon completion of the church planting stage.
The history of the Brethren denomination in Germany does not provide direction for church planting because of its congregational leadership approach. Interviews with different church planting projects show a diverse range of structures and views of leadership which have a partly positive, but mainly negative effect on the establishment of a church. The integrative leadership style, which reflects the New Testament pattern,provides perspective for the future.
The future successful establishment of churches within the framework of the Brethrenchurch requires profound changes in the traditional theology and practices of the denomination. / Christian Spirituality Church History and Missiology / (M.Th. (Missiology))

Cultural intelligence and its role in the leadership style and leadership effectiveness domainSolomon, Anthony Wilfred 2017 May 1900 (has links)
Introduction: An interconnected world is impelling workforce composition towards cultural heterogeneity. Since leadership is a cultural construct, leaders should display those styles that enable them to function effectively in culturally varied conditions. Cultural intelligence could assist leaders in this respect. Purpose: To investigate the role cultural intelligence plays in the leadership style (empowering and directive leadership) and leadership effectiveness domain, so as to aid leader selection and development. Method: A systematic review of the cultural intelligence literature, coupled with content and thematic analysis, allowed for the knowledge to be organised per the concept, definition and truth statement (validated hypotheses) elements of the general body of scientific knowledge framework. Correlation and regression analysis of cross-sectional survey data, from 1140 respondents, were used to assess relationships between leader cultural intelligence, leadership styles (empowering and directive) and leadership effectiveness. Results: Nine concepts associated with, and 24 different definitions of cultural intelligence, were identified. Sixty percent of hypotheses on cultural intelligence have been confirmed as truth statements. The relationship between leader cultural intelligence and empowering leadership demonstrated a large practical effect. This relationship was underpinned primarily by metacognitive and motivational cultural intelligence. The relationship with directive leadership carried a medium practical effect, and was strongest at the motivational and cognitive cultural intelligence levels. The part played by subordinates’ cultural identity in the display of empowering and directive leadership by culturally intelligent leaders was insignificant; rather, leader cultural intelligence was the dominant informant of these leadership styles. Finally, leader cultural intelligence did not impact the relationship between empowering leadership and leadership effectiveness. Although it did negatively affect the directive leadership and leadership effectiveness relationship, the moderation had no practical effect. Conclusions: The concepts associated with cultural intelligence are: accomplishment, culture, expatriates, experience, fit, intelligence, motivation, supervision and training. Cultural intelligence definitions remain mostly based on those of the seminal authors. The majority of truths cover just six themes. Leadership style (empowering and directive) is a function of leader cultural intelligence. Although leader cultural intelligence extends beyond subordinates’ cultural identity in predicting empowering and directive leadership, it does not influence their relationships with leadership effectiveness. / Graduate School of Business Leadership (SBL) / D.B.L.

Revisión teórica de aspectos de la gestión del riesgo, liderazgo educativo y contextos de desastre natural o situaciones de emergencia / Theoretical review of aspects of risk management, educational leadership and contexts of natural disaster or emergency situationsDelgado Arce, Bianca Marisa, García Lopez, Hilary Michelle 12 October 2020 (has links)
Actualmente, una de las necesidades y trabajos en los que las escuelas deben poner más énfasis, es en la atención de las posibles situaciones de riesgo a los que se enfrenta, todo ello en base al liderazgo de un director que sepa saber abordar este problema. Ahora, esta situación ocurre debido a que por lo general son espacios en los que directamente recae el impacto de una comunidad la cual hace que esta entre en contexto y se encuentren vulnerables al riesgo o situación de emergencia. Para ello, se define el liderazgo directivo como aquella persona que mantiene los sistemas de comunicación y participación de la comunidad educativa para generar un cambio cultural y asumir la responsabilidad pública de los resultados (Uribe, 2007). En esa misma línea, se entiende por el plan de gestión de riesgos como un proceso social en el cual reducen, previenen y controlan el riesgo de desastre de una comunidad para el cual se formulan e implementan estrategias, acciones e instrumentos (Lavell, 2006). Para finalizar, se ha identificado que la buena ejecución del plan de Gestión del Riesgo va a depender del buen liderazgo del director con el apoyo y participación de todos los miembros de las institución. / Currently, one of the most important jobs that schools need to emphasize on is the need for attention to the possible risk situations that they face, all based on the leadership of a director who knows how to deal with this type of problem. Now, this situation tends to occur since these are generally spaces in which the impact the community falls directly onto them, which makes them enter into context and are subjects to being vulnerable to any risk or an emergency situation. To do this, directive leadership is defined as a person who is capable of maintaining communication and participation systems of the educational community to then generate cultural change and assume public responsibility for the results in the institution (Uribe, 2007). Along the same lines, the Risk Management plan is understood as a social process in which they reduce, prevent and control the risk of disaster in a community for which strategies, actions and instruments have been formulated and implemented previously (Lavell, 2006). All in all, it has been identified that the good execution of the Risk Management plan will depend on the good leadership of the director alongside the support and participation of all the institutional members. / Trabajo de investigación

Principals' leadership styles and their effects on teachers' performance in the Tigray Region of EthiopiaAyene Tamrat Atsebeha 11 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine the leadership styles adopted by school principals and their influence on the job performance of primary school teachers in the Tigray region of Ethiopia. The study was designed to gain insight into the kinds of leadership styles presently used, the leadership preference of principals, the perceptions of the teachers and principals regarding the leadership styles of the principals and the effect of the leadership styles on teachers’ performance. The main research question that guided this study was: Which leadership styles are most commonly used by primary school principals in the Tigray region and what is their effect on the performance of teachers? A mixed-methods research design was used with questionnaires as well as a focus group interview as means of data-collection. One hundred and seventy eight principals and 446 teachers comprising 69% male and 31% female teachers participated in the study. The path-goal leadership questionnaire as well as a self-constructed questionnaire to measure teacher performance was self-administered to collect data from the selected principals and teachers, which secured a 97% response rate. During the qualitative phase, eight supervisors participated in the focus group interview. The questionnaire data were analysed using the Statistical Analysis System (SAS) software. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were conducted and presented in a clear and logical manner. The principals and teachers indicated that all the leadership styles, except the directive leadership style, have a positive impact on the teachers’ performance. Furthermore, the supportive leadership style is the most frequently used style. Importantly, age, qualifications and experience as independent variables had an effect on teachers’ performance. The data also indicated a statistically significant relationship between the job performance of teachers and the leadership styles employed by the principals. The study results make a contribution to the research on the relation between leadership styles and teachers’ performance, especially since no study has been conducted on this issue in the Tigray region of Ethiopia before. It was possible to make several meaningful recommendations for implementation in the Tigray region. / Educational Leadership and Management / D. Ed. (Education Management)
