TL;DR: Coaching & Communicating for Performance Coaching and communicating for Performance is a highly interactive program that will give supervisors and managers the opportunity to build skills that will enable them to share expectations and set objectives for employees, provide constructive feedback, more effectively engage in learning conversations, and coaching opportunities as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Building Leadership Effectiveness This program encourages leaders to develop practices that transform values into action, vision into realities, obstacles into innovations, and risks into rewards. Participants will be introduced to the five practices of exemplary leadership: modeling the way, inspiring a shared vision, challenging the process, enabling others to act, and encouraging the heart Coaching & Communicating for Performance Coaching & Communicating for Performance is a highly interactive program that will give supervisors and managers the opportunity to build skills that will enable them to share expectations and set objectives for employees, provide constructive feedback, more effectively engage in learning conversations, and coaching opportunities. Skillful Conflict Management for Leaders As a leader, it is important to understand conflict and be effective at conflict management because the way conflict is resolved becomes an integral component of our university’s culture. This series of conflict management sessions help leaders learn and put into practice effective strategies for managing conflict.

TL;DR: The study found that globally coherent networks in winter-over groups were associated with group consensus on the presence of critically important informal social roles (e.g., expressive leadership) where global coherence is the extent to which a network forms a single group composed of a unitary core and periphery.
Abstract: This article reports on the evolution of network structure as it relates to formal and informal social roles in well-bounded, isolated groups. Research was conducted at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. Data were collected on crewmembers' networks of social interaction over each of three winter-over periods, when the station is completely isolated. In addition, data were collected on the informal roles played by crewmembers (e.g., instrumental leadership, expressive leadership). The study found that globally coherent networks in winter-over groups were associated with group consensus on the presence of critically important informal social roles (e.g., expressive leadership) where global coherence is the extent to which a network forms a single group composed of a unitary core and periphery as opposed to being factionalized into two or more subgroups. Conversely, the evolution of multiple subgroups was associated with the absence of consensus on critical informal social roles, above all the critically important role of instrumental leader.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the types/styles of leadership and the leadership styles of different leaders of various organizations in Pakistan and examined their impact on organizational performance, they found that though the most suited style of leadership is transformational one but in new and growing organizations transactional leadership style may be more productive, while in certain circumstances though limited and for a short period, laissez faire may be required.
Abstract: Performance of organizations is related to the profitability of the organizations in terms of its growth and profit both in long and short term. In business organizations, investors and businessmen desire and endeavor to ensure that their organizations perform well to earn more profit, grow fast and achieve competitive edge in the industry. For organizations to perform well, apart from tangible and intangible resources, effective and dynamic leadership is a pre requisite. Leadership style of the leader of an organization has a strong impact on the performance of the organization. Though most of the researchers in the past agreed that leadership style has relationship with organizational performance but there are some who did not support this view, hence, an ambiguity exists. To address this confusion, the researchers studied the types/styles of leadership and the leadership styles of different leaders of various organizations in Pakistan and examined their impact on organizational performance. There are three main leadership styles; transformational, transactional and laissez faire leadership styles. While the first two have a positive but different level of impact, the third one has a negative impact on organizational performance. A quantitative study was conducted by using a questionnaire filled from various leaders of manufacturing and service organizations. Results of the study were studied through SPSS and the researchers found that though the most suited style of leadership is transformational one but in new and growing organizations transactional leadership style may be more productive, while in certain circumstances though limited and for a short period, laissez faire style may be required. Hence, the leader might have to adopt a hybrid style of leadership style. Leadership style has a significant impact on the organizational performance.

TL;DR: For instance, the authors found that strong relationships among teachers affect a variety of teacher outcomes that may ultimately impact student achievement, including higher levels of trust, increased shared decision-making, and a more innovation-oriented climate than less dense school teams.
Abstract: Relationships among teachers are increasingly regarded as important building blocks of a strong school community. A dense teacher network that reflects a common exchange of information, knowledge, and social support is often believed to benefit both teachers and students. Yet, research on social networks among teachers is scarce. This book describes a study that offers valuable insights in the nature, antecedents, and consequences of social networks in school teams. Results provide support for the premise that 'relationships matter'. Dense school teams are characterized by higher levels of trust, increased shared decision-making, and a more innovation-oriented climate than less dense school teams. Findings suggest that strong relationships among teachers affect a variety of teacher outcomes that may ultimately impact student achievement. It is through these ties with potential that the creation and development of new knowledge and practices flow and hold the promise of building capacities toward improvement.

According to Lipset (1960), education “broadens man's outlook, enables him to understand the need for norms of tolerance, restrains him from adhering to extremist doctrines, and increases his capacity to make rational electoral choices” (p. 54), and “The higher one's education, the more likely one is to believe in democratic values and support democratic practices.” (p. 57). Lipset postulated that these individual-level effects of education (tolerance, moderation of political positions, positive attitudes towards democratic values, ability for rational decisions) influence the political culture of nations. Two relevant effects of education and cognitive ability on politics could be distinguished: a cognitive effect (competence to make rational choices, better information processing etc.) and an ethical effect (support of democratic values, freedom, human rights etc.), which itself depends on cognitive ability (cognitive development being a prerequisite for moral development) and probably the other way round (a willingness to think and learn furthers cognitive competences). A similar position is held by the OECD (2000), which postulates an influence of education on the quality of voting decisions and intensity of political participation: “People with more schooling are likely to make more informed choices when voting and to participate more actively in their communities....

Abstract: Research into Leader-Member Exchange (LMX) theory has been gaining momentum in recent years, with a multitude of studies investigating many aspects of LMX in organizations. Theoretical development in this area also has undergone many refinements, and the current theory is far different from the early Vertical Dyad Linkage (VDL) work. This article uses a levels perspective to trace the development of LMX through four evolutionary stages of theorizing and investigation up to the present. The article also uses a domains perspective to develop a new taxonomy of approaches to leadership, and LMX is discussed within this taxonomy as a relationship-based approach to leadership. Common questions and issues concerning LMX are addressed, and directions for future research are provided.

Abstract: This study provided a comprehensive examination of the full range of transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire leadership. Results (based on 626 correlations from 87 sources) revealed an overall validity of .44 for transformational leadership, and this validity generalized over longitudinal and multisource designs. Contingent reward (.39) and laissez-faire (-.37) leadership had the next highest overall relations; management by exception (active and passive) was inconsistently related to the criteria. Surprisingly, there were several criteria for which contingent reward leadership had stronger relations than did transformational leadership. Furthermore, transformational leadership was strongly correlated with contingent reward (.80) and laissez-faire (-.65) leadership. Transformational and contingent reward leadership generally predicted criteria controlling for the other leadership dimensions, although transformational leadership failed to predict leader job performance.

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of the transformational leadership literature using the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) was conducted to compute an average effect for different leadership scales, and probe for certain moderators of the leadership style-effectiveness relationship as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: A meta-analysis of the transformational leadership literature using the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) was conducted to (a) integrate the diverse findings, (b) compute an average effect for different leadership scales, and (c) probe for certain moderators of the leadership style-effectiveness relationship. Transformational leadership scales of the MLQ were found to be reliable and significantly predicted work unit effectiveness across the set of studies examined. Moderator variables suggested by the literature, including level of the leader (high or low), organizational setting (public or private), and operationalization of the criterion measure (subordinate perceptions or organizational measures of effectiveness), were empirically tested and found to have differential impacts on correlations between leader style and effectiveness. The operationalization of the criterion variable emerged as a powerful moderator. Unanticipated findings for type of organization and level of the leader are explored regarding the frequency of transformational leader behavior and relationships with effectiveness.
