Leadership Games : Experiential Learning For Organizational Development By Stephen S Kaagan, Response Books, 1999, Pp 187, Price: Rs 225 (Paperback)., Vijay Padaki

IIMB Management Review

T here are two ways of looking at this book. We can look at the 25 exercises that the author has described in near manual form or we may look at the experience of the author backing the exercises. Many trainers and consultants seeking additions or replacements to their wellworn (and worn out) repertoire of experiential exercises will welcome the collection. They will no doubt change the titles, modify the layout, and alter the operating details to display them as original creations, but if they benefit from the exercises, as I am sure they will, it will be a major …

Leadership : Myths And Realities Robert J Allio, 1999, New Delhi, Tata Mcgraw-Hill, Pp 237, Price: Rs 325 (Cloth)., K Unnikrishnan Nair

IIMB Management Review

There has been a spate of books on leadership in the recent past, and most of them promise far more than they deliver, conceptually and practically. Allio's book, however, comes as a pleasant surprise. Conceptually, Allio is rooted well. He doesn't consider leadership as an isolated phenomenon. Nor does he swear by any particular theory, theorist, approach, or paradigm. Leadership, for him, covers both the process of influencing as well as the quality of the influencer. Particularly, Allio emphasises that this process of leadership is a participative process, where, in accordance with the contextual needs, both the followers and the …

Theses and Dissertations

Leadership In Computer-Mediated Communication: Implications And Research Directions, Gerard George, Randall G. Sleeth Dec 2000

Leadership In Computer-Mediated Communication: Implications And Research Directions, Gerard George, Randall G. Sleeth

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

Despite the importance of interpersonal influence processes in computer-mediated communication (CMC) environments, the emergence and functioning of leaders in CMC settings remains unstudied. An initial model and propositions address the possible extension of selected leadership models beyond face-to-face (FTF) communications and into the non-face-to-face CMC environment. We (1) model relevant variables for CMC leadership, (2) briefly review the implications of selected leadership models regarding these CMC variables, and (3) extend leadership models into the CMC sphere.

During the 70s, computer communication technology was transformed by desktop computing and distributed capacity. Networks
based on the TCP/IP protocol (transmission control protocol and Internet protocol) started communicating with one another.

Data was transferred between networks in packet form through  switches, routers, bridges, and gateways. From defence, the Internet found its application in educational institutions. Usenet …

The Feminine Leader, Fran Siemensma Jun 2000

The Feminine Leader, Fran Siemensma

IIMB Management Review

An increasing number of management writers exploring leadership are promoting a more feminine paradigm of leadership as a means of encouraging business to become both more inclusive and more appropriately responsive. In this context feminine does not describe gender, but is being increasingly used as shorthand for a more human, holistic and inclusive model of leadership. Among these writers is Amanda Sinclair, who has strongly criticised Australian management for assuming that a leader will be ‘the heroicmale’

A Model Of Relational Leadership: The Integration Of Trust And Leader-Member Exchange, Holly H. Brower, F. David Schoorman, Hwee Hoon Tan Jun 2000

A Model Of Relational Leadership: The Integration Of Trust And Leader-Member Exchange, Holly H. Brower, F. David Schoorman, Hwee Hoon Tan

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

This article presents a model of relational leadership based on a review of leader-member exchange (LMX) and interpersonal trust. This model asserts that the LMX relationship is built through interpersonal exchanges in which parties to the relationship evaluate the ability, benevolence, and integrity of each other. These perceptions, in turn, influence the behaviors predicted by LMX researchers. This integrated model of relational leadership provides insights into the dynamics of leader-subordinate relationships and resolves some of the inconsistencies in the LMX research without losing the richness and uniqueness of the exchange theory. A number of propositions for future research in relational …

Toward The Differentiation Of Trust In Supervisor And Trust In Organization, Hwee Hoon Tan, Christy S. F. Tan May 2000

Toward The Differentiation Of Trust In Supervisor And Trust In Organization, Hwee Hoon Tan, Christy S. F. Tan

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

Trust in supervisor and trust in organization are argued to be distinct but related constructs, each with its own set of antecedents and outcomes. Empirical field results supported the proposition. Although trust in supervisor and trust in organization were positively and significantly correlated, trust in supervisor was more strongly associated with proximal variables (ability, benevolence, and integrity of supervisor), whereas trust in organization was more strongly correlated with global variables (perceived organizational support and justice). This conclusion held despite the inclusion of proximal variables in the regression on trust in organization and the inclusion of global variables in the regression …
