Molines, Mathieu. "Une étude multiniveaux sur le leadership transformationnel dans la police française : le rôle de l'engagement au travail." Thesis, Toulouse 1, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014TOU10038/document.
Full textLeadership is a major challenge for the police organization. This research aims to understand the effects of transformational leadership on individuals and teams within the context of the French police through the mediating role of work engagement. The results of our multilevel and longitudinal study conducted among 1,520 policemen in 144 teams, over a period of 8 months, indicate that transformational leadership has direct and indirect effects on different outcomes at the individual and the team level. More specifically, through the lens of job demands and resources theory (Demerouti et al., 2001), we show that transformational leadership acts as a resource that encourages the subordinates to become more engaged in their work that in turn improved performance. Our results thus help to illuminate the "black box" of transformational leadership (Jung and Avolio, 2000) explaining "how" and "why" through work engagement, transformational leadership enhances performance at work. Also, based on the theory of social exchange (Blau, 1964), we show the emergence of similar relationships at the collective level through the existence of work environments such as transformational leadership climate or work engagement climate which have effects on outcomes at different levels. The theoretical contributions of this research, the managerial implications for police organization as well as avenues for future research are discussed

Full textOne of the greatest challenges our society faces is how to transform a fundamentally inequitable educational system. The societal inequities marginalized groups witness and experience on a daily basis are magnified by hegemonic educational policies and practices which produce, reproduce, and reinforce the concepts of white privilege. Developing transformative leaders is crucial given educational leadership is considered second only to teaching as an influence on students' learning.
This qualitative study examined the personal and professional growth of eight administrators and described the process by which these adults learn, internalized what they learn, and put their new knowledge into practice through socially just action within their schools and departments. The targeted professional development employed the tenets of critical race theory and principles of transformative leadership development as key elements toward addressing educational inequities.
The study provided insight into the lived experiences of educational leaders and explored their development of critical consciousness and how they utilized a lens of equity to effect personal and systemic change. The study grounded in critical race theory, transformational adult learning, and social justice leadership development revealed administrators who participated in ongoing, equity centered, professional development, shared similar experiences as adult learners and educational leaders in their professional roles. The results strongly suggested the impact this professional development had on their beliefs and behaviors was significant. These developing transformative leaders found the professional development to be relevant and urgent work resulting in the implementation of systemic change to varying degrees.

Full textTraditionella tillverkningsföretag möter utmaningar med ny teknik, förändrad marknadsdynamik, ökade krav från kunder och hållbarhetskrav. Dessa förändringar har en stor effekt på hur organisationer hanteras och leds. Detta leder till utmaningar för ledare som ska kunna leda organisationen och människorna genom förändrade miljöer. Transformativt och tjänande ledarskap har utforskats under förändringar. Tidigare studier visar dock motstridiga åsikter om lämpliga ledarskapsmetoder för företag som står inför förändring. Denna studie försöker därför undersöka transformativt och tjänande ledarskap i agila förändringar. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att finna rekommendationer för ledare inom traditionella företag som står inför agila organisatoriska förändringar. En kvalitativ fallstudie genomfördes och avgränsas till hårdvaruutveckling inom en FoU-organisation i ett traditionellt tillverkningsföretag. Avdelningschefer, sektionschefer, projektledare och gruppchefer intervjuades för att fördjupa förståelsen för de utmaningar som företaget står inför. Resultaten visar indikationer på att det är viktigt för ledare att hantera utmaningar som till exempel att möta motstånd i förändringsarbetet, överväga en ny roll som ledare och att skapa trygghet. De två ledarskapsmodellerna; transformativt och tjänande ledarskap, förväntades bidra till en smidigare förändringsprocess. Trygghet ansågs vara viktig i denna förändring och därför hade ledarna en inställning att uppmuntra medarbetare att ta risker genom att ledarna främjade autonomi och uppmuntrar medarbetarna att testa och prova. Tjänande ledare stöder agila principer och transformativa ledare strävar efter att uppmuntra förändringsinitiativ. Dessa ledarskapsstrategier kan därför förbättra och stödja organisatoriska insatser för att arbeta mer agilt. Det kan dock inte dras någon slutsats om vilken ledarskapsmodell som är mest lämplig för förändring. Transformativt och tjänande ledarskap visar indikationer på vilka ledarskapsattribut som är önskvärda i en förändring. Ledare måste därför utvärdera förändringssituationer och medarbetarnas behov för att bestämma lämpliga ledarskapsstrategier.

Thesis, Brandman University, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3668810.
Full textThe purpose of this study was to determine how pastors of autonomous church congregations of 1,000 members or more describe the impact of biblical principles on their leadership in the areas of visionary leadership, communication, problem solving and decision making, personal/interpersonal skills, character/integrity, collaboration, creativity and sustained innovation, diversity, team building, and political intelligence. In this study, qualitative research methods that included interviewing pastors were used. Interviews were conducted, recorded, transcribed, analyzed, and coded for the purposes of comparison to the Transformational Leadership Skills Inventory (TLSi). The study produced data that showed alignment to pastor leadership traits and transformational leadership skills as measured by the TLSi. Results from the study can be used for training and curriculum in transformational leadership for pastors, as a tool for selecting and monitoring pastors, and to create church action plans that align to transformational leadership principles.

Full textThis qualitative study examined the use of transformational leadership among producers in one production company in the entertainment industry. A sample of 16 producers who led shows at the organization from 2012 to 2016 completed an interview about their self-described and ideal leadership styles, their current and desired use of transformational leadership, and attitudes and openness to executive coaching. Producers’ self-described current leadership style is empowering, and they want to become more results-oriented and highly respected in the future. Participants reported they are and want to continue to be transformational. Almost all participants expressed interest in coaching. Although additional research is needed to extend and confirm the present study findings, the study organization may wish to offer its leaders development opportunities and consider training team members to promote consistent values. Specifically, executive coaching and training in transformational leadership may be beneficial and of interest to the participants in this study.

Full textThe purpose of this study was to examine a high school choral program to discover how the leadership behaviors of the teacher contributed to the success of the program. The teacher's leadership behaviors were examined through the framework of Transformational Leadership. Criteria for the selection of this program included a recent performance at a state music conference, consistent high ratings at choral performance evaluations, and the inclusion of one chorus where students continued to sing but did not audition into the top chorus. Primary participants included student members in the three choruses and their director. Secondary participants included the orchestra director and the choral director from the feeder middle school. Data were collected through interviews, observations ofrehearsals and concerts, and artifacts during one academic year of instruction. Data were coded and analyzed and primary themes included: (a) a supportive classroom atmosphere; (b) repertoire selection; (c) developing independent musicians; and (d) creating a chorus community. Results ofthis study indicate that the director demonstrated numerous leadership behaviors that intersect with those found in Transformational Leadership. These included: setting clear, challenging goals; holding high expectations for music reading and performance; providing support in a friendly classroom environment; establishing a sense of community in the chorus; and, genuinely caring for the needs of students. These transformative leadership behaviors led to students who demonstrated musical independence. Suggestions for the profession include implementing transformational leadership behaviors into undergraduate music education courses, which can provide opportunities for preservice teachers to reflect upon and develop their leadership skills to a higher level before they enter the profession.
