Political Economic Social/Cultural Technological Who are you competing against? “Organizations need both good managers and strong leaders if they are to survive and thrive in today’s competitive environment. However, given the emphasis in recent years on MBA Programs and management education and on short-term quarterly reports, many organizations are over-managed and seriously under-led. Today, our business schools need to develop leaders versus business managers.” – Dean George Benson Terry College of Business, University of Georgia Judge – Malcolm Baldridge Award Never in human history have libraries been as complex as they are today. - Complexity requires management. - Without sound management, complex organizational systems can become chaotic and ineffective. - Savvy management is essential to ensuring order and consistency in complex organizations, ensuring quality, timely delivery and cost effective programs and services. Change is coming more quickly than ever. - Rapid technology change, greater competition, changing demographics in the workplace, and wildly fluctuating financial systems all demand a style of thinking and behaving that emphasize flexibility and innovation, not processes and routine. - The real challenge for smart libraries today is to find and groom people who are both good managers and strong leaders.

Seven Major Organizational Types “The Passive-Aggressive Organization,” HBR , October, 2005 A: PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE “Congenial and seemingly conflict free, achieves consensus easily, but struggles to implement agreed-upon plans.” B: RESILIENT “Highly adaptable to external market shifts, yet focused on and aligned behind coherent values, mission, vision, goals.” C: OUTGROWN “Too large and complex to be effectively controlled by small team, but has yet to democratize decision-making authority.” D: JUST-IN-TIME “Inconsistently prepared for change but can rise to an unanticipated challenge without losing sight of the big picture.” E: MILITARY-PRECISION “Dominated by small, involved senior team; succeeds through superior execution and the efficiency of its operating model.” F: OVERMANAGED “Its multiple layers of management create analysis paralysis and also politicize decision making.” G : FITS-AND-STARTS “Contains scores of smart, motivated, and talented people who rarely pull in the same direction at the same time.” 30,000 Responses What about you?

Vision and change “Leadership is about articulating visions, embodying values, and creating the environment within which things can be accomplished." 1986 – Richards and Engle Leadership Is: A Choice We Make, Not the Position We Hold. The Passion to Make a Difference. Seeing the Possibilities in a Situation While Others Are Seeing the Limitations. Taking Responsibility While Others Are Making Excuses. The Ability to Make the Dream a Reality. The Capacity to Care, and In Caring, to Liberate the Ideas, Energy, and Capacity of Others. More About How to Be - Not How to Do. Courage. “How many of you had someone in your life that communicated your worth and potential so clearly that it profoundly influenced your life?” The process of social influence in which one person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task. Leadership is ultimately about creating a way for people to contribute to making something extraordinary happen. Ken Blanchard Larry Bossidy Jim Collins Peter Drucker Jeffrey Gitomer Francis Hesselbein Carolyn Kepcher John Maxwell Rosabeth Moss Kanter Mark Sanborn Russell Simmons “[Libraries] are human change agents. Their product is a child who learns, a young person grown into a self-respecting adult; a changed human life altogether.” Donald Trump Nido Qubein Ted Turner -- Peter Drucker – Managing the Nonprofit Organization Key Thoughts SESSION 1 Write down your Key Thoughts from each session.

They are likely to believe strongly in the importance of clear structure and well-developed management systems. A good leader is someone who thinks clearly, makes the right decisions, has good analytical skills, and can design structures and systems that get the job done. THE B.A. DAVID COMPANY Human Resource leaders emphasize the importance of people. They endorse the view that the central task of management is to develop a good fit between people and organizations. They believe in the importance of coaching, participation, motivation, teamwork and good interpersonal relations. A good leader is a facilitator and participative manager who supports and empowers others. THE B.A. DAVID COMPANY Political leaders believe that managers and leaders live in a world of conflict and scarce resources. The central task of management is to mobilize the resources needed to advocate and fight for the unit’s or the organization’s goals and objectives. Political leaders emphasize the importance of building a power base: allies, networks, coalitions. A good leader is an advocate and negotiator who understands politics and is comfortable with conflict. THE B.A. DAVID COMPANY Symbolic leaders believe that the essential task of management is to provide vision and inspiration. They rely on personal charisma and a flair for drama to get people excited and committed to the organizational mission. A good leader is a prophet and visionary, who uses symbols, tells stories and frames experience in ways that give people hope and meaning.
