Sh6000 Leadership And Management Assessment Answer

Question:

Your workbook should be structured in three distinct sections:

1.Management style

2.Leadership, management and change (this tests L02)

3.Leadership, management and decision making

Looking back at the work you have done with your group this semester, how would you change the way that the group was managed and led?

This discussion should be linked to theories of change discussed during this semester. You should outline some of the key principles of successful change, applying these to your group’s work.

At the end of this section, you need to provide references, including books and journal articles. These should be in the correct Harvard referencing style (see the folder on ‘academic skills’ on weblearn

Consider critically the DECISIONS (or non-decisions) you have taken while working with your group this year. These decisions could be in your group leading up to the presentation, or in subsequent workshops and seminars. For this section, you need to consider theories of POWER. You need to discuss what form of power was used by students- both leaders and followers.

What were the barriers to taking effective decisions? This should be linked to theory e.g. of groupthink.

At the end of this section, you need to provide references, including books and journal articles. These should be in the correct Harvard referencing style (see the folder on ‘academic skills’ on weblearn)

Looking back over the whole module, incorporate at least four key leadership/management skills that you have developed (and/or that others in your team have developed). In each case you should link the skills to reading on theory.

You should also consider ethical decision making in Part 3. Reflecting on a management/leadership decision that you (or someone in your group) have taken this year, you need to decide if the decision was ethically correct. You must link this to a theory of ethics, and justify your decision.
