Taylor, Michael. "The influence of transformative coaching on managerial behaviour, leadership style, individual and team engagement." Thesis, Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/19811.
Full textThis research study not only links three important business concepts, namely, leadership development, employee engagement and executive coaching, but is also an important body of research that contributes in a meaningful way to the debate around the role of executive coaching and its impact on leadership effectiveness. It outlines a transformative framework for executive coaching that shows a significant shift in managerial behaviour. This behaviour shift acts as a catalyst for the enhancement of key dimensions of employee engagement. This is an important finding, as the field of professional coaching is undergoing much scrutiny in terms of its return on effectiveness and its ability to accelerate the development of high-potential talent. The reseach findings in this report further serve to reinforce the importance of aligning leadership development, and specifically executive coaching practices, with organisational strategies. The global financial crisis has highlighted the need for organisations to adopt prudent leadership development strategies. The intelligent integration of transformative coaching into talent management practices such as retention, promotion, deployment and development of high-potential leadership, will create the necessary impetus for building sustainble leadership capacity and provide an outstanding return on investment for organisations wherever they might be in their maturity cycle.

Full textLedarskapets utformning kan innebära stora konsekvenser för de anställdas arbetsmiljö och välmående. Det finns flera teorier om ledarskapsstilar som fokuserar på de positiva aspekterna av ledarskap, såsom transformativt, coachande och situationsanpassat ledarskapsstil, vilka utgör teoretisk ram för denna uppsats. Det har även uppmärksammats att destruktiva ledarbeteenden kan ha en negativ inverkan på de anställda och organisationen. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka vad chefer anser orsakar ett konstruktivt respektive destruktivt ledarskap samt vilka av dessa orsaker anser chefer härstammar i individuella respektive organisatoriska faktorer. Första frågeställningen var; vad anser chefer kännetecknar ett konstruktivt respektive destruktivt ledarskap? Den andra frågeställningen var; vilka av dessa kännetecken anser chefer härstammar i individuella respektive organisatoriska faktorer? Fyra stycken chefer inom privata företag i Stockholm med varierande bakgrund och bransch hittades genom snöbollsurval och intervjuades. Data analyserades med tematisk analys. Resultatet visade att chefer anser att konstruktivt ledarskap kännetecknas av motivation, kommunikation, självbestämmelse, coachande förhållningssätt, situationsanpassning, utvecklingsmöjligheter, rekrytering, delaktighet och destruktivt ledarskap kännetecknas av ineffektivitet, erfarenhetsbrist, auktoritetsproblematik, mikroledarskap tidsbrist och bristande organisationskultur. Dessa faktorer delas upp i individuella och organisatoriska faktorer enligt följande. Individuella faktorer som identifierades för konstruktivt ledarskap var motivation, kommunikation, självbestämmelse, coachande förhållningssätt och situationsanpassning. För destruktivt ledarskap identifierades ineffektivitet, erfarenhetsbrist, auktoritetsproblematik och mikroledarskap som individuella faktorer. De organisatoriska faktorer som identifierades för konstruktivt ledarskap var utvecklingsmöjligheter, rekrytering, delaktighet och för destruktivt ledarskap identifierades faktorerna tidsbrist och organisationskultur. Analysen åskådliggör ledarskapet som en komplex process där kunskap kring ledarskapsstilar ger stor fördel för tillämpning av ett konstruktivt ledarskap. Samtidigt måste det uppmärksammas att organisatoriska faktorer har storpåverkan på ledarnas möjlighet till tillämpning av ett konstruktivt ledarskap och kan i värsta fall resultera i beteenden som leder till destruktivt ledarskap. Studien är kraftigt begränsat i termer av representativitet då urvalet var mycket litet och syftet var explorativt.

Full textThe present study examines the five national coaches operating in girls’ team (F16, F17 and F19), Youth team (U23) and the national team in women's soccer. The purpose of the survey is to obtain knowledge about their perceptions of coaching and leadership and to explore how head coaches were coaching and leading teams during the collections. The methods are interviews and observations during matches and training sessions by all the present national team. The study has noted Swedish Football Association three policy documents for education of girls, youth, and women players at the national team level, Player program from F15 to A-national team (2010), Operation and roles, from F15-U20 (2013) and Player Study 2013. Coach lights indicate that they are shaped by their first years in the sport. They all have a long soccer career as a player and coach. Leadership starts from the players' participation and influence. Participation, curiosity and activity are key words for the players. Coaches are working with a coaching approach and leadership with the purpose being that the players motivated for their own solutions to problems and decisions. Goals are set by players and officials together on the resources that are available. Coach's task is to create conditions for achieving the objectives. Coaches are asking questions and are there as support, trainers, guides and developers aiming to give players opportunities to reach their goals. The approach differs between training and matches. During the match, the leaders use a more authoritarian leadership and players' ability to reduce their own decisions.

Full textThe background of this study originates in the expanding regulation of the financial sector, specifically within the banking and insurance business. This sector has experienced heavier regulations since the Enron scandal in 2001 which culminated in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and is still being actively regulated today. During 2018, two new regulatory frameworks were added to the Swedish financial sector, namely Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II (MiFID II) and the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD). This, and any other new addition to the legal framework, may affect managers and their leadership within an organization which operates within the banking and insurance business. The purpose of this study is to illustrate how new financial regulations may affect managers’ leadership. The study has therefore employed the use of transactional and transformative leadership theory to analyze ten managers’ personal experiences of the increased regulatory framework. The empirical data gathered from an organization currently operational within the banking and insurance sector suggest that regulations may have tangible effects on the managers employed there. The managers reported an increased use of direct control, whereby they would examine if their subordinates were compliant with the new regulations or not. Some of the managers expressed significant alterations in their leadership when the new frameworks were first introduced which resulted in a more controlling and transactional leadership, as most of their time was spent assuring employee compliance. However, upon the implementation of an administrative role that relieved the managers of most of the compliance control, they could once more return to their favored leadership style. The study concludes that there are indications of the regulations affecting managers’ leadership but that it’s heavily dependent on how an organization chooses to delegate the compliance work. There are also certain indications that the nature of new regulations could favor certain leadership styles. An increase in compliance work also suggests an increase in the use of direct control, a common trait in transactional leadership. On the other hand, the abolishment of contingent rewards for sales indicates an increase use of transformational leadership.

Full textTo ascertain the importance of applying Executive Coaching processes in the managing area resorting to the Enneagram system as a methodology is this investigation’s intent. The final objective is of increasing Emotional Intelligence’s competences and to obtain more efficient professionals and leaders. Executive Coaching is employed as a process to bring professionals the needed competencies that allow them to be leading-edged when dealing with problems. It plays an important role when helping the executive to define diagnoses and to attain new answers in order to achieve higher leveled performances. The Enneagram is a system that offers self knowledge and personal transformation, defining nine personality types and their complex interrelations. Applied as a methodology, the Enneagram allows the professional to grow a greater awareness and to recognize his behavior patterns when facing diverse stimuli and circumstances. It also assures the needed orientation so that the executive may interfere on these mechanisms’ level by changing them, altering his beliefs, habits and behaviors that may prevent him from accessing the potential he usually can´t practice. The Enneagram is also the most powerful way to develop Emotional Intelligence by bringing meaningful insights which can be applied in both personal and professional spectrums. Presently, Emotional Intelligence is assumed as a commanding element in the performance of leadership roles. In this investigation it has been intended to ascertain the measure of a reasonable cause effect relation between Executive Coaching with the Enneagram system and emotional competencies’ development and, thus, highly effective leaderships, the desired outcome.

Full textThe body of knowledge on transformation is growing and previous researchers have set a foundation by focusing on different aspects of B-BBEE and legislative redress. Scientific research on coaching as a tool to facilitate legislative redress is emerging. The objective of the research was to add to the emerging body of knowledge and uncover how South African businesses approach transformation, what processes and resources they use and what best practices are applied and if opportunities existed to introduce new concepts and frameworks, such as Coaching. The study used qualitative research methodology. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with two employees in four different organisations, four technical signatories in two verification agencies and four B-BBEE consultants. The organisations who participated in the research qualified as level, one, two and three contributors to B-BBEE. It was assumed that the B-BBEE level would indicate the extent of transformation in the organisations. Transformation in South Africa remains a contentious issue for business and employee responses to redress range from positive to negative. Organisations have been slow to respond to the people aspects of transformation. From the research, it was evident that organisations, verification agencies and consultants interchanged B-BBEE and transformation, implying that in South Africa, the concepts were similar, if not the same. Organisations’ responses to B-BBEE were still very reactive and at the time of the interviews, the respondents all expressed varying levels of concern to the gazetting of the amended B-BBEE Codes of Good Practice. The view held, was that the amended codes would require organisations to take a more strategic view of transformation. Only one of the four organisations interviewed confirmed that they had a transformation strategy. As for the other organisations, the strategies could be described as emerging Best practice is beginning to emerge and on some elements of the scorecard, improvements can be seen as organisations adapt approaches to yield a return on investment. Coaching as a resource to facilitate transformation was approached with caution even though the respondents recognised that third party interventions were necessary. The research builds a case for coaching as a tool to embed learning and development as organisations shift from a tactical response to B-BBEE to a more progressive or authentic goal.
