Personal Model Of Leadership Part 1leadership Involves Training And Se ✓ Solved

PERSONAL MODEL OF LEADERSHIP PART 1 Leadership involves training and selecting the appropriate leadership model. It is a continuous process that will revolve around individual and organizational values, beliefs, the work environment, and the surrounding environment and culture. Taking these into consideration, a leadership model can be adopted. Along with this, the adoption of a model will create a sense of meaning and purpose while impacting others, the organization, and the surrounding society (Voegtlin et al., 2012). Comment by Julie Cober: Nice introduction.

Don’t shy away from first person writing for this assignment. This is, after all, YOUR leadership model. The selection and development of a leadership model begins with the values of the organization. This is the foundation of the leadership style. These values designate priorities and define what drives the organization.

It further defines the hierarchy of priorities and goals that need to be accomplished. Leaders are able to target and accomplish tasks in the order based on the hierarchy. This will also build trust among the work centers because there is no confusion on what the organization stands for while influencing the basic values of respect, spirituality, integrity, and interpersonal relationships. To identify values, one must know what their personal, interpersonal, the organization, and societal values are. One practice used to identify these values, is through the use of the Rokeach Survey.

This survey enables clear values to be identified while aiding the development of a leadership model. This also enables the employee to know what organizations share their values while allowing the organizations to know what individuals will be better suited for employment within their companies. The basic values will provide the basic foundation for the work environment, employment, and servant leadership. Comment by Julie Cober: So far you have done a good job of describing the tools to find values, as well as how values will help. However, you have not began to describe your values and behaviors you will use.

Servant leadership encourages the basic values of trust, listening, collaboration and ethical utilization of positional power and empowerment. Employees are more motivated to follow their leaders with this style of leadership. Leaders at all levels work together to accomplish tasks while having an open door policy to issues that may arise. Employees will have a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment in their jobs. This leads to the synergistic efforts needed to enhance creativity, intelligence, and innovation of the employees.

Comment by Julie Cober: Since this paper is to be about you – are you saying that you are a Servant Leader? Open communication is very critical to servant leadership. Employees need to know that they are able to voice their opinions. I would encourage this in my leadership model. I would hold daily huddles in which employees could discuss with each other what has been done and what needs to be done.

I would encourage empowerment by giving the employee’s freedom in accomplishing tasks. I would also hold people accountable for their actions to uphold integrity in the workplace. Comment by Julie Cober: This is the only paragraph where you have identified the specific values that you would incorporate. For which leadership perspective are these aligned with (individual, interpersonal, organizational, societal)? In conclusion, there is little doubt that successful and effective leaders are often driven by a specific leadership model.

A personal leadership model will create a creative mindset in the employees while identifying the values in the four areas of personal, interpersonal, organizational, and societal. Using the Rokeach Survey will provide insight to these values. Once the values have been established, the organization can establish the foundation to its’ mission and organizational goals while also laying the foundation for employee expectations. Comment by Julie Cober: Make sure to identify a value for each level. REFERENCE Comment by Julie Cober: Make sure to indent all secondary lines.

An Investigation of the Rokeach Value Survey For Consumer Research Applications. (n.d.). Retrieved May 18, 2015, from May 2015 Capital Punishment Capital punishment is one of the most controversial issues not only in the United States, but also in many modern countries. The United States federal government (in comparison to the separate states) applies death penalty for capital crimes, capital crime is a serious offence which includes treason, terrorism, spying, federal murder, large-scale drug trafficking, and trying to kill a witness, juror, or court officer in certain cases. In the United States, 32 states such as Texas, California, Florida, and Alabama apply the death penalty. On the other hand, 18 states such as New York, Alaska, West Virginia, and Massachusetts do not apply the death penalty (The Death Penalty Information Center).

In 1608, captain George Kendal, was the first recorded execution in the history of the United States for being a spy for Spain. In 1966, the public support for capital punishment reached all-time low. A Gallup poll shows support of the death penalty at only 42% (The Death Penalty Information Center). Even though supporters of the death penalty claim that capital punishment is effective punishment, it should be abolished because it costs the government a huge amount of money, there is no real evidence that capital punishment reduces the crimes rate, and many innocent people could die. The cost of the death penalty is one of the reasons that the government of the United States should ban capital punishment.

Capital punishment in 32 states cost the government of the United States a huge amount of money that could be used wisely in other important issues such as creating jobs, public health, and education. For example, in Kansas non-death penalty cases which counted through to the end of incarceration cost the state in average 0,000, while death penalty cases which counted through execution cost the state .26 million for each inmate (Survey by the Kansas Legislative Post Audit). Moreover, in Maryland death penalty cases cost 3 times more than non-death penalty cases, or
