The first priority for managing this team is to get a solid foundation of trust between team members and the leader. Studies have consistently shown that trust is one of the most potent accelerators there are for streamlining communication throughout a virtual team (Purvanova, Bono, 2009)
Over the course of time, this developed my attitudes and beliefs by creating foundation of comprehending numerous concepts. (Wasonga, 2006) (Robbins, 1991) For example, diverse metaphors taught me morals and behaviors that should be avoided

At the end of the day, I will get the greatest satisfaction from knowing that I made a difference in someone else's life in a positive way. Numerous opportunities for career advancement is also a factor as well (Lu, While, & Barnball, 2007)
I need to work on this, even if it means officially putting it in my daily schedule. I need to avoid burnout and caregiver's syndromes (Palfine, 2008)
Program Design Towards the end of 1999, as the leadership committee at Goldman Sachs was readying themselves for their presentation of their own leadership development program to the bulk of the company's actual leaders, the company was in a fairly hectic state. Growth ha taken place on an exponential basis over the past decade, yet with a major shake-up only five years prior due to heavy investment and capital losses (Groysberg & Snook 2007)
Retraining the Vampire Squid In light of recent events, it is clear that some sort of leadership development (or at least ethics training) was definitely advisable for Goldman Sachs. The company actually had a program in place, providing a training facility with a variety of short- and longer-term programs for its managing directors (O'Connell 2010)
Bennett (1977), for example, found that high performance managers in the Phillipines had a low score (task oriented) while their counterparts in Hong Kong had high LPC scores (relations oriented)." (Bass & Stogdill, p
Followers' need for power is enhanced by a charismatic leader's empowerment practices." (Choi, 24) For the Hong Kong-based business, Choi argues, a charismatic leader is a crucial figure that can be the difference between a productive or an underachieving team of employees
Given the necessity for building trust and coordinating operations, supply chains certainly can benefit from relationship orientation." (Peng, 428) This suggests that for Hong Kong business leaders, there is a distinct economic benefit to creating meaningful business relationships as compares to simply meeting production metrics or achieving quantifiable economic goals
They both need support from each process in order to achieve its goals." (Vecchio, 3) Often, the difference between an effective management core and one which fails to motivate its organization is in the dexterity and sensibility present in its leadership
Technical skill and vision, however, represent only a couple of the key traits of a leader. Edwin Locke proposed that vision and technical ability are important leadership factors, but that the ability to implement the vision is just as important (Locke, 1999)
In order to improve my interpersonal skills by developing the aforementioned traits, I will need to shift my focus to the external world. I will need to actively consider the view points of my co-workers rather than imposing my own ideas on them (Thompson, 2006)
The military itself clearly passes 'the mentorship test,' in the words of John C. Maxwell's book Developing your leadership potential when he asks the question "am I true to my leader" (Maxwell 2000, p
The method helps the organization to improve on the brand name and remain competitive in the market by communicating consistent messages from the top to the lower level. Communication of the strategies is key to the implementation process where the middle level leaders come up with the best plans to integrate the plans and make the mission and vision a reality (Gerhard Plenert, 2012)
Change of procedures without proper research may be costly for the organization which therefore makes this category of the plans to be repetitive over a long duration of time. (John Wiley & Sons, 2000)
If one division is not well coordinated in terms of executing its short-term plans which are developed to help it achieve some of its operations then the impact is felt by the entire organization, that explains the need to coordinate the works of every division or department within to help achieve the broader goal without causing the interdepartmental rivalry and competition. Tactical plans are usually used by the middle level managers to ensure the plans are properly implemented from the lower level units all the way to the top level for the betterment of the organization (SM Advisors, 2010) The third planning method is the strategic planning
Leadership Plan Personal Leadership Development Plan Personal Development and Theoretical Underpinnings Throughout the self-reflection and investigation that has taken place during this course, I have developed an increasing awareness of my particular leadership strengths, weaknesses, and styles such that I am able to more concretely and with greater certainty outline a plan for the development of my own leadership potential. The fact that my preferred types of power being expert knowledge and referent power, and with a strong disinclination for coercion, combined with my strong team building skills and my ability to compromise and collaborate as a means of resolving conflicts, fits much of the theoretical criteria for transformational leadership (Bass & Riggio 2006)
A large part of being a transformational leader is making sure that communication takes place with a great deal of efficiency within the organization, and especially in smaller organizations such as that in which I hold a leadership role facilitating ongoing education and information sharing must be a major part of the leadership task (Bass & Riggio 2006). Establishing the proper skills and attitudes for fostering such a communicative and educational environment will also be a major feature of my leadership development plan (Bush 2003)
