Document Summary

Ch11: leaders are necessary for effective team work. They need to be there to shape goals, coordinate effort, and motivate members. Effects to change the leader may often result in negative supervisor reactions, including resistance to change, role conflict, unwillingness to relinquish power, fear of appearing incompetent and fear of job termination. These responses may cause the leaders to engage in actions that thwart, rather than facilitate team effectiveness. Carver is an autocratic leader, since he is an appointed leader. He should go for coaching; coaching is about building team work, not about doing the team"s work. Leadership is not the same as management, people want to be led. Leadership is the ability to influence people to achieve the goals of a team. Transformational leadership and transactional leadership depend on the leader"s power to reinforce subordinate for their successful completion of the task.
