Couverture de l’ouvrage Leadership and organizational climate
For Leadership courses.
Leadership and Organizational Climate is a book that shows how leaders get people to follow, even when the leaders arent there. Effective leaders create and direct the motivational energy that compels people to action, and this book explains how this happens even without the leaders constant and personal attention. It is a book about the indirect aspects of leadership: how the memory or shadow of leadership creates a certain atmosphere or climate within an organization, and how this climate drives an organizations performance. Leadership is too often explained in terms of the leaders direct face-to-face impact on people. This book describes the less dramatic but more lasting impact that certain leadership practices have on peoples feelings, motivations, and behavior. In a very real sense, this book attempts to be a cloud chamber for the practice of leadership it traces the normally unseen, but very real, influence that powerful leaders leave behind when they move through an organization.
