There are a time and place for all leadership styles. No style is right or wrong. It is how leaders use them that determine success or failure. I started working at Ashley Stewart on June 6, 2000. My first position was a sales associate. After working six months, I was invited to transfer to one of the Cleveland stores as a co-manager. After working there for a year, I was asked to move back to Toledo where I became a store manager for five years. In 2006, I was promoted to a District Manager and transferred to Columbus to open two new Ashley Stewart stores. When I registered for a leadership class, I wondered how many ways a person can learn about leadership. After taking a management class, I learned that leadership is a process whereby an

The Walt Disney Company plays and important role in the lives of many, through the services provided and a place where many people are employed. Understanding overall group dynamics are vital for continued improvement. It is important to note that group processes currently in place can influence individual behaviors thus resulting in the overall performance at the group level. Developing a favorable organizational context that is designed to enable the group to achieve its goals are paramount.

Leadership: When Tandy Gerelds decided to do a preseason camp in 1973 even if his players didn’t want to do it, he acted as a leader and forced them to do it.

Julie has some advantages of becoming a supervisor of the group she has been a long member in. The main advantage I see is that Julie knows the issues she and her friends noticed as staff nurses. She has heard her friend’s opinions and frustrations with the job, which allows her to have a better idea of what issues to address. She also can ask her friends what they would like to see changed, which may allow her friends to warm up to the idea of her being in a higher up position because they are being included. The textbook, Leadership for Health Professionals, explains that it is important for leaders to take time to understand the people who make up the workforce (Ledlow and Stephens, 2014, p. 7). Julie has taken a vast amount of time to understand the nurses and it will be an asset in her leadership.
