Seasonal Shifts : Leadership Decisions and Their Consequences on Kalmar’s Hospitality Workforce

Aoun, Kevin, Thakur, Nityam January 2024 (has links)
This Master’s Degree Project titled "Seasonal Shifts: Leadership Decisions and Their Consequences on Kalmar’s Hospitality Workforce" investigates the complex phenomenon of seasonality in the hospitality sector and its effects on employee relations and leadership in the context of Kalmar, Sweden. For small economies that significantly rely on tourism, seasonality—which is defined by temporal swings in visitor activity—presents both opportunities and challenges. This study focuses on the perspectives from employees and explores the managers' decisions and how they try to control the cyclical nature of tourism and the effect they have on the workers.  Utilizing an extensive theoretical framework encompassing Transformational, Transactional, Ethical, Servant, Democratic, and Seasonal Employee Leadership styles, the study explores the ways in which various methods impact job satisfaction, employee engagement, and retention. Incorporating the Cultural Dimensions Theory enhances the story and offers a more profound comprehension of the interaction between cultural factors and leadership decisions. With its bustling summer tourism industry and sizable student body, Kalmar provides an ideal setting for investigating how leadership choices affect the seasonal workforce. The study discusses how important leadership is in overcoming seasonality-related problems including worker turnover and local community sustainability. The thesis seeks to add to the body of knowledge on leadership in the hospitality sector by providing a thorough examination and insights into the lives of people who deal with the highs and lows of the tourist seasons. In addition, it aims to educate decision-makers in government and business by pointing them in the direction of approaches that sustain small cities' social and economic structures off-peak.

Gender differences in high school principals' leadership styles

Herndon, Janie Diane 01 January 2002 (has links) (PDF)
Objective . The purpose of this study was to determine if the leadership behavioral practices of female and male high school principals were similar or different. Methodology . The Leadership Practices Inventory - Individual Contributor (LPI-IC) form was sent to a random sample of 300 (100 females and 200 males) of the 898 public high school principals in California. The response rate was 45 percent (N = 123; 79 males and 44 females). The typical principal had served six years, with an average of 13 years as a teacher. Key findings . While female principals generally reported higher scores than their male counterparts on the five leadership practices, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups on Challenging, Enabling, and Encouraging. On both Inspiring and Modeling, the scores of female principals were higher than those of male principals. Number of years as a principal was not correlated with any of the five leadership practices; and the same was true for number of schools as a high school principal. Challenging and Inspiring were significantly correlated with number of years as a teacher.

Leadership styles of business school deans and their perceived effectiveness

Hassan, Ahlam Ali January 2013 (has links)
Leadership as a concept has been an area of significance for several decades. While the contribution of research to leadership concept in the industry has been substantial the same cannot be claimed with regard to the Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). There is a paucity of research studies in the context of HEIs, particularly in regard to business schools. Deans of business schools were hardly the subject of research in the leadership literature till recently. But with collapsing business empires in the last decade (for instance Lehman Brothers), business school deanship came under scrutiny as the leaders in those business empires that collapsed were graduates of renowned business schools. The review of the literature with respect to challenges affecting HEI and business school leadership threw up many challenges. The challenges investigated were leadership styles, leadership practice, leadership effectiveness, decision quality, follower commitment, follower satisfaction, management style, organisational setting and orgaisational culture. Each challenge was assumed as a factor affecting deans of business schools as leaders. The review of the literature provided the theoretical basis for determining the nature of each factor. Leadership style was defined as the independent variable influencing leadership practice. Five leadership styles namely transactional, transformational, laissez-faire, democratic and autocratic leadership styles were made as independent variables to determine leadership practice. Leadership practice was identified as the independent variable influencing leadership effectiveness although the relationship between leadership practice and leadership effectiveness was supposed to be influenced by mediating factors namely decision quality of deans of business school, follower satisfaction and follower commitment. Academic and administrative staff were considered as the followers. Management style and organisational setting were considered as moderating variables of leadership practice of deans of business schools. Oraganisational structure was used to represent organisational setting as the variable. Organisational culture was used as the control variable. The theoretical framework was drawn to represent the linkage between the factors. The model developed was supported by already established theories that were tested for reliability and validity. The leadership style and leadership effectiveness models were developed which was the focus of this research. Leadership style-leadership practice linkage provided the theoretical framework to determine the style practised by the deans. Leadership practiceleadership effectiveness linkage mediated by decision quality, follower commitment and follower satisfaction provided the theoretical framework to determine the leadership effectiveness. Survey questionnaire was the method used to collect data. The questionnaire was sent to 600 academic and administrative staff members of business schools from eight different countries. The results showed that the transactional leadership style was the leadership style practised by the deans of the business schools. Other findings were as follows. That transactional leadership indirectly but positively influenced the leadership effectiveness of deans through decision quality and follower satisfaction. The mediation of the transactional leadership practice-leadership effectiveness linkage by decision quality and follower satisfaction was significant and in the positive direction. Management style and organisational structure were found to act as moderating variables of transactional leadership practice of deans positively. Transformational, laissez-faire, democratic and autocratic leadership styles were found to have significant and positive correlation with transactional leadership style implying that these four styles could moderate the transactional leadership style-leadership practice linkage. The study offers insights into how deans of business schools might develop their leadership attributes either by enhancing their transactional leadership style or changing their style or combining different styles to suit the situation.

A systems psychodynamic perspective on dealing with change amongst different leadership styles

Abrahams, Fayruz 30 November 2005 (has links)
This study focussed on the systems psychodynamic perspective of how different leadership styles (paranoid, schizoid, depressive, compulsive and histrionic) deal with change as measured in a focus group consisting of four psychologists. How the different styles deal with change was compared to the definitions established to distinguish the key tendencies apparent during change for each style. Content analysis was applied to determine an integrative profile for each style during change. Though each of the styles responds in distinctly different ways when faced with change, all show a heightened level of reaction on the interpersonal dimension, indicating that change dramatically affects leader-follower relationships. The findings highlight the reversion during change to extreme self-interest and a tendency to use the team to serve this self-interest. Recommendations were presented to create reflective space so the leader may, through insight, be in a position to establish collaborative leader-follower relationships that are open to change. / Indust & Org Psychology / MCOM (IND PSYCHOLOGY)
