Download or read book Leadership and Organization in the Aviation Industry written by Marc-Philippe Lumpe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership and organisational structures which are not adjusted to the cultural background of the employees concerned are most likely to produce sub-optimal results (House, 2004). Therefore it is necessary to develop appropriate leadership and organisational structures in order to fully grasp the cultural environment to be encountered in the professional world. This book presents a research project that was carried out to develop leadership and organisational structures in accordance with the requirements created by different professional backgrounds within the aviation industry. The identification of the different professional cultures was undertaken using a standardised questionnaire. The development of the questionnaire was carried out with the help of the GLOBE study (House, et al., 2004), one of the most extensive research efforts ever undertaken in the field of organisational and national cultures. The main characteristic of the GLOBE study is the development of nine dimensions which serve to identify and characterise any culture. These dimensions are referred to as 'core cultural dimensions'. Using this newly developed questionnaire, it was not only possible to isolate 12 different professional cultures, but also to identify their distinguishing traits which served as the base for the subsequent development of leadership and organisational structures. The survey was complemented by open interviews served to broaden and deepen the results gained with the standardised questionnaire. The research outcomes open the door to a new and important element of cultural research, complementary to those of organisational and national cultures. Although the study was carried out in the aviation industry, the results gained also appear to be transferable to other industries due to the large variety of professions isolated within the course of the presented study and the specific nature of the aviation industry itself.
Book Synopsis Leadership and Organizational Performance: a Study of Airlines Industry by : Dipak BASTOLA

This book was released on 2021-07-31 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the role of organizational leadership in achieving a high level of performance is somehow debated and thus there is a crucial need for researching the area of leadership and organizational performance. In response to this debate, I have conducted this study that establishes the relationship of leadership effects on their organization in the context of Nepali aviation industries. As such, the role of leadership in organizational success or failure cannot be neglected when we talk about aviation organization like any other general organization. Therefore, this research has identified the link between leadership and organizational performance in the Nepali airlines industry. A study of six different airlines has been performed using a case study method, in which a full range of leadership development theories and themes, as well as, organizational performance measurement themes to measure organizational performance have been used. Three failure airlines and three successful airlines were chosen for the study. The scope of the research is limited to the airline as a unit of analysis. In this unit of analysis, further leadership and organization are considered as two sub-units of analysis. In the leadership sub-unit, mainly leadership traits and determinants, leadership perspectives, leadership styles and types of leadership have been studied, whereas in the organization sub-unit of analysis, human resources, technology, structure, safety culture, strategy, environments, the role of government, unhealthy competition, political instability and its effects, have thoroughly been studied. The results indicate that leadership and organizational performance of Nepali aviation industries are two sides of a coin and without effective leadership, better organizational performance is not possible. Besides other factors like culture, environment, technology and financial constrain, most of the cases revealed that the role of government leadership while formulating the policies and aviation leadership that fails in coopetition with governmental bodies are the two main factors for aviation organizational success or failure in Nepal. Successful airlines' leaders are visionary and transformational; whereas leaders from the failure airlines are autocratic, transactional and laissez-faire type. The study then identified that transformational leadership styles contribute to good performance, thereby paving way for better performance in the airline industries. In summary, three major factors of success or failures of Nepali airline industries are lack of leadership for a coopetition strategy with the government while formulating the aviation policies, external environment, and aviation safety. Three conditions of leadership and organizational factors include a) leadership factors that are in dominating role than organizational factors for the organizational performance; b) organizational factors that are in dominating role for the organizational performance, and c) both leadership and organizational factors that are equally responsible for the organizational performance. The conclusion is that ideal condition for the greater performance of the organization is only possible if there is a balance between leadership as well as organizational factors. Thus, this book not only revealed vital information of success or failure of airlines, it modified the existing Porter's theory, developed a few new leadership as well as organizational constructs, tested some theory of success and failures and finally developed a new success model for the airlines based on research findings.

This book was released on 2010-03-05 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION All of my life, I have wondered why some people are leaders and others are not. This book is sort of an analysis of the relationship between employee, supervisor, manager and leader. In the 1970s, I had the pleasure of working out of a Pan Am training department office at JFK airport, NY, with a fellow who I “observed” as having qualities of leadership. I often thought had he been an officer in the trenches, and called “let’s go,” his men, without hesitation, would follow him “over the top.” He was in management at Pan Am as a Maintenance Technical Instructor. I was conducting classes in management development. Of course, he wasn’t a CEO or Vice President, probably because he did not have the necessary formal education, but to me he represented the qualities I would hope to find in those positions. He planned his work, set goals and clearly communicated them to individuals or groups. He comfortably reflected a style of knowledgeable, but modest, self confidence. With a pleasant personality, he seemed to earn the trust of others. It was always evident he had prepared himself through experience and study of the subject he was teaching. I don’t know why, but to me, as I saw him perform his work, he was the natural “leader” 14 JOHN STEARNS type. Even though there were several other well qualified instructors in the group, this instructor, John Romaine, came to mind as I prepared to write this book on the subject of leadership in management. I am aware of the many books, courses, and other materials on the subject of management, and I have read many of them, but I believe in using my personal experiences and observations, with the experience of others, it will make clear the difference between “managers” and those who are “leaders in management.” MY OBSERVATIONS OF, AND EXPERIENCES WITH, LEADERSHIP IN MANAGEMENT 15 It is not my intention to write this as a “personal career” story and therefore, references to my personal experiences are only to be considered as they relate to the subject and not necessarily in chronological order. In writing this book I am motivated by three thoughts. First—most of my life I have mentally noted the differences in styles, manners, and methods of peoples’ relationships with others. And then I found that in my working experience I had several opportunities to highlight and explore those items. Secondly—in recent years, the emphasis on selecting leaders has grown. It seems that everyone is always seeking a good leader—tribes, organizations, companies and countries, and too often, when one is selected there follows disappointment. And thirdly, it is helpful to recall the pleasure of working with men and women who were instrumental in accomplishing much that contributed to our society. 16 JOHN STEARNS It is also a recognized fact that there are many in management positions that have made and/ or are making great differences in the lives of people. So in this book instances will be noted in which men and women represent the various styles and manners of leadership in management and make note of the qualities that make some more leaders than others. This book is written as an “observation,” with the hope it might encourage people holding management positions to reflect on their style and methods of communicating with others. Opening conclusions: (1) many organizations, with good purpose and intention, find themselves managed so poorly that others live at a disadvantage and unhappiness. (2) In too many instances large companies have had such poor management that millions of people have been hurt financially and otherwise and (3) In many countries on all continents, people find themselves searching for good leaders and when they don’t, the results are friction and in many instances, bloodshed. So, my question is, what is it about management and leadership that is so difficult for some men and women to accept and practice? What is the difference between a manager and a leader?
