Module 01 Deliverable - Leadership Development Plan Outline
What is organizational leadership?
When defining leadership, Richard Bolden emphasized the subjective nature of what leading means. He states, "Like notions such as 'love', 'freedom' and 'happiness', leadership is a complex construct open to subjective interpretation. Everyone has their own intuitive understanding of what leadership is, based on a mixture of experience and learning, which is difficult to capture in a succinct definition" (Bolden, R. 2004).
The definition I found to be most accurate for my belief in leadership was
the process of "influencing others to understand and to agree about what needs to be done and how it can
be done effectively, and the process of facilitating individuals and collective efforts to accomplish a shared objective" (Shafique, I., & Beh, L. 2017). Organizational leaders play an imperative role in a company's achieved goals by focusing on all the interconnected segments within, then having the ability to identify and mitigate company risk, and adequately motivating their human resources. Transformational Leader Qualities
Transformational leadership occurs when leaders broaden and elevate the interests of their employees, when they generate awareness and acceptance of the purposes and mission of the group, and when they stir their employees to look beyond their own self-interest for the good of the group (Bass 1990). A person who demonstrates strong leadership skills is like having a superpower in an organization. You don't have to have a "manager" title to positively encourage change through motivating and inspiring others to reach a common goal. Before getting into management, I believed that the best leaders cared about the people and that these people were the company's greatest assets. Shaping these assets was essential through empowerment, coaching, and team building. This vision of leadership gave me the groundwork for becoming a great leader. Allowing me to visualize myself as a future transformational leader who would have a very team-focused approach. \

Research by Bass (1990) supports transformational leaders possess the following traits: Charisma: Provides vision and sense of mission, instills pride, gains respect and trust. Inspiration: Communicates high expectations, uses symbols to focus efforts, and expresses important purposes in simple ways.
Intellectual Stimulation: Promotes intelligence, rationality, and careful problem-solving.
Individualized Consideration: Gives personal attention, treats each employee individually, coaches, and advises. (Bass 1990).
All the traits mentioned in a transformational leader closely align with how I manage my teams. I spend time building rapport with everyone within my team, focusing on giving personal attention to each individual and providing motivation, encouragement, and coaching based on the individual needs. I work closely with my team to problem solve collectively, inspiring participation in finding solutions that
improve our goals and bring innovative change. Additionally, identifying and developing individuals who possess traits of a leader and strong motivations toward learning and growing.
My transformational leadership strengths and weakness
If I were to identify my strongest leadership strengths, it would be my ability to treat every moment as a coachable moment that can further an employee's personal growth and improve their ability
to contribute to the overall company goals. Transformational leadership is crucial for innovation since it focuses on mentoring and coaching that generate intellectual stimulation and charismatic influence to help followers become more efficient without judging them...leaders must support followers by training them and sharing resources to innovate. These leaders stimulate exploration learning and monitoring motivation by asking employees for systematic feedback (Costa, J., Pádua, M., & Moreira, A. C. 2023).
This strength encompasses several traits of transformational leaders, such as the charisma to gain rapport
with my teams, connect company vision, and motivate individuals to reach their full potential. Studies reveal that one of the most effective leadership style is the leader-coach approach. (Christianto, &

Effective leadership is essential for driving organizational success, inspiring teams, and fostering a culture of growth and innovation. Leadership development initiatives aim to cultivate the skills, competencies, and behaviors necessary for individuals to excel in leadership roles. These initiatives may include formal training programs, mentorship opportunities, coaching, and feedback mechanisms. Leadership development focuses not only on traditional leadership skills such as decision-making, communication, and strategic thinking but also on emotional intelligence, adaptability, and resilience. Organizations that prioritize leadership development invest in their future by identifying and nurturing emerging leaders, providing them with opportunities to develop their skills and expand their leadership capabilities.

the critical role of leadership is emphasized during times of change. Yet, a universal definition of leadership is non-existent because it is defined by our personal experience. Similarly, describing the difference between leadership and management, both necessary for organizational change, has been described from multiple perspectives. The terminology most used to describe the actions of a leader and the actions of a manager are transformational and transactional. However, in the video, "Leadership vs. Management", Godin (2018) takes a slightly different approach to determine what sets leaders apart from managers by focusing on courage to take responsibility even when risks are high, failure is eminent, and possibilities are only a vision. Considering organizational change, the readings, and video, respond to the following questions:

The Organizational Leadership program seeks to develop leaders through a blend of self-awareness work and study of concepts, terms, theories, frameworks, and best practices related to a vast number of leadership skills we believe can be developed overtime. One of the most important skills a leader can hone and improve upon throughout their career and life is Emotional Intelligence.
