Intermediate Photography Lessons : Online Photography Course: Framing & the Rule of Thirds
Characteristics of leadership are highly relevant as this is the first of three key success factors in change management. They have been extensively reviewed by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner. Their groundbreaking studies, began in 1983 with the driver that they wanted to know what people did when they were their "personal best" in leading others - that is to identify characteristics of good leadership.
They designed a leadership characteristics of inquiry composed of thirty-eight open-ended questions designed to capture "Personal Best" stories peak leadership experience.
The research was conducted over 15 years, with 75,000 people on a global basis and included middle and High-level private and public sector organizations, community leaders, student leaders, religious leaders, government leaders and hundreds of other in leadership positions.
The last study was conducted in 2002 and the prioritized list of leadership characteristics is as follows:
1. Honest 88%
2. Forward-Looking 71%
3. Competent 65%
4. Inspiring 66%
5. Intelligent 35%
6. Impartial 47%
7. Broad-minded 40%
8. Supportive 42%
9. Single 34%
10. Operating 33%
11. Co-operative 24%
12. Determined 20%
13. Imaginative 23%
14. Ambitious 17%
15. Courageous 28%
16. Taking care of 21%
17. Mature 20%
18. 14% Loyalty
19. Self-controlled 8%
20. Independent 6%
It is interesting to note that these figures have remained largely consistent over the 15 years to complete the search. The results of this search and subsequent analysis of the characteristics of leadership was led to the definition of the 5 best practices leadership and are critical in the management of change
In summary they found that despite differences in the circumstances and details stories of individual people, their "personal best, leadership experiences have revealed recurrent and similar behavior in their description of the characteristics of good leadership.
(1) Leading by example
Leaders define and establish principles about how people should be treated and how the objectives should be pursued. Leaders set the benchmark creating standards of excellence and then demonstrate these standards in their own behavior and setting an example for others to follow.
They recognize that people can be overwhelmed by large, complex and / or long-term goals, so they set interim targets that promote easier "quick wins".
Leaders also untangle red tape and give people clear pointers unambiguously successful achievement of objectives. They create the environment in which people can succeed.
(2) Creation a shared vision
The leaders clearly and passionately held vision of what the organization can be changed. They have skills and energy to enthuse and inspire people to share that vision, and also to see and get excited about possibilities future.
(3) Challenging the Way Things Are
Leaders are ambitious and seek opportunities to challenge and change the status quo. They seek innovation and improvement of the organization, and are willing to experiment, take risks and accept failures inevitable as part of the learning experience.
(4) Enabling and encouraging people to Act
Leaders are facilitators and empower people by involving them and believing in them. They engender mutual respect and trust and, thereby, motivate their people to the extraordinary effort and success.
(5) Addressing the emotional dimension
The leaders know that their contribution prominent in an organization is working very hard. They also know that the emotional dimension is extremely important. While they recognize regular achievements of their people and celebrate the achievements of the team and individual, and that they make people feel good about themselves.
These are all qualities and practices that ensure effective leadership initiatives in change management.
