This book was released on 2023-07-20 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Employee Motivation, grade: 1,0, University of Economics, Prague (Faculty of Business Administration), course: Management for doctoral students, language: English, abstract: This paper analyzes the impact of transformational leadership on employee well-being in remote work environments. As several studies suggest, there is a positive relationship between transformational leadership and employee well-being, but it is rather complex as it is influenced by specific mediating and moderating factors. Since the ongoing COVID-19 crisis forced many teams into remote working conditions, also leadership was predominantly performed virtually. This leads to adapted requirements for the promotion of employee well-being. This paper seeks to identify those adjustments. Thus, a conceptual model was constructed to illustrate the relationship of transformational leadership and employee well-being, which was then applied to remote work environments to propose relevant adaptations.

Book Synopsis The Power of Virtual Distance by : Karen Sobel Lojeski
Download or read book The Power of Virtual Distance written by Karen Sobel Lojeski and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-04-21 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised second edition presents 15 years of data on Virtual Distance metrics and their predictive impact on organizational success factors shedding new light on how to correct for communication challenges that often show up as a foggy set of digital disconnects where the vitality of the virtual workforce often gets lost in transmission. This still-evolving Digital Age conundrum continues to present new complications. The rise of remote work which rests on an increasing reliance on electronic communication and the overall growth of virtual interactions has led to the escalation of a phenomenon called Virtual Distance. Virtual Distance, which influences our behavior through three components Physical Distance, Operational Distance, and Affinity Distance affects not only how we relate to others thousands of miles away but even to co-workers sitting right next to each other! Perhaps even more problematic, Virtual Distance causes measureable malfunctions in teamwork, innovation, leader effectiveness and overall performance. But it doesn’t have to be this way. The Power of Virtual Distance offers specific, proven and predictable solutions that can reverse these trends and turn Virtual Distance into a unification strategy to capture untapped competitive advantage. Surprised? The Power of Virtual Distance, 2nd Edition is a must-read for leadership who want to understand the true and quantifiable costs of the virtual workplace. For the first time ever, readers can take the guesswork out of managing the virtual workforce by applying a mathematical approach derived from the extensive Virtual Distance data set: The Virtual Distance Ratio. The Virtual Distance Ratio can precisely pinpoint the particular impacts of Virtual Distance on the organization’s critical success factors. Beyond business metrics, Virtual Distance solutions also detail ways to restore meaningfulness and well-being into people’s experience of work, enhancing life lived in the Digital Age. The Power of Virtual Distance reveals an updated set of data, including the first award-winning analysis, collected from an extended range of executives to individual contributors, that represent situations and solutions in more than 36 industries in 55 countries across the globe. Readers will get a “first look” at the data and its revelations on how to be less isolated and more integrated. Helping managers globally, this book: Offers new, real-world case studies and a chance for readers to participate in thought experiments to help with personal performance, group synergy and by extension, relationship dynamics of all kinds Demonstrates (with statistically significant trend analyses) that Virtual Distance is growing at exponential rates in every corner of communities worldwide Offers expert advice on how to manage the “unintended human consequences” of today’s digital technologies Companies that successfully harness the power of Virtual Distance demonstrate better performance. The second edition of The Power of Virtual Distance is a valuable, one-of-a-kind resource for everyone – from the C-suite to human resource professionals; from divisional leaders to project managers. Everyone in the organization can benefit by discovering how to improve financials, innovation, trust, employee engagement, satisfaction, organizational citizenship and other key performance indicators. And perhaps best of all, by following the prescriptions on how to reduce Virtual Distance, the entire workforce will have the tools they need to bring about a revival of meaning, purpose and an enlivened sense of “humanhood” back into everyday work and everyday life.

Book Synopsis The Agility Mindset by : Fiona Cannon
Download or read book The Agility Mindset written by Fiona Cannon and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-20 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shows how to unlock the massive efficiency savings and productivity gains by reframing the approach to flexible working by concentrating on workforce agility. We know that organizations don’t need the same number of workers 9-5, five days a week 52 weeks a year. We know that not all of the best talent will work when and where we want. We know that command and control Taylorism stifles innovation and creativity. So why do we keep thinking of flexible working as a cost to the organization? A simple mindset shift is all that is required to grasp the opportunity that smart organizations are already exploiting. Stop thinking about “flexible working” and start thinking about “workforce agility”. By creating win-win working practices you can attract the best talent by offering the flexibility they crave and secure the agile, just-in-time workforce that can get the job done. The Agile Future Forum, a business-to-business initiative started by 22 founder members – mostly CEOS of big employers including BT, Lloyds Banking Group, Cisco, Tesco, KPMG, HM Treasury and Ford – have conducted case studies and a collated best practice from world class organisations which show that a more agile approach to flexible working not only delivers better performance but can also save between 3 and 13% of personnel costs. The Agility Mindset blends the insights of scores of CEOs, along with the frontline experience of practising managers to create this very practical guide. Based on rigorous research, but packed with practical diagnostics and frameworks, the book shows you how to create a fit for purpose workplace in a world where only the agile will flourish.

Book Synopsis Remote Leadership by : Kimberly Snodgrass
Download or read book Remote Leadership written by Kimberly Snodgrass and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaders of organizations have faced many challenges with respect to remote work during the COVID-19 global pandemic. The purpose of this research was to examine the most productive work environment for employees post-pandemic, the role leadership plays in the success of remote work, and how employees view remote work. This research was limited to one small community bank that had experience with employees working in a traditional office setting then working remotely to adhere to COVID-19 protocols. This study focused on middle management and below, excluding senior management from the research. The conclusion of this research was that most employees want to work remotely opposed to a traditional office setting, which can achieve higher job satisfaction and lower employee turnover. Current employees of the small community bank were surveyed and interviewed to explore their experiences, organizational culture, thoughts on leadership’s decision, and the impact of remote work due to the pandemic. Organizations that have leaders who listen to what their employees want when it comes to remote work will result in greater work performance. This research demonstrated the importance of evaluating employees post-pandemic to analyze their most productive work setting.

Book Synopsis The Only Constant in HRM Today is Change by : Dianna L. Stone
Download or read book The Only Constant in HRM Today is Change written by Dianna L. Stone and published by IAP. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this issue of Research Human Resource Management we consider some of the challenges facing organizations today including changes in the population, the increased competition for talent, and the rise in the use of technology. The issue also includes a number of thought-provoking articles that describe strategies for developing sound theories in our field, discuss the consequences of growing diversity in organizations, consider the factors affecting the success of virtual teams, present methods for increasing emotion control for incumbents in emotionally laden jobs, and discuss leadership and performance management in virtual teams. The first article in this issue compares prospect theory to goal setting theory, and highlights the critical elements needed for theory development in our field. A second article reviewed the literature published from 1976 to 2017 in the Academy of Management Review, the primary theoretical journal in management, and identified the factors associated with the most effective theories published over the last forty years. In view of the growing diversity in organizations, the next article provided a ranking of individual attributes that might be viewed as stigmatizing in organizations. The findings revealed that blemishes of character (e.g., criminality, drug addiction) were viewed as most stigmatizing followed by abominations of the body (e.g., paralysis, leg amputation), and the least stigmatizing attributes were tribal stigmas (e.g., ethnicity, religion). The fourth article focuses on a similar topic, and presents an interesting model of the factors thought to influence weight-based bias. Both of these articles have important implications for overcoming unfair discrimination and increasing the inclusion of all individuals in organizations. The next article offers an input-throughput-output model of virtual teams, and reviews the literature on each of the variables thought to influence the success of these teams. Given that many customer service jobs in the new economy involve high levels of emotional labor, the sixth article reviews the strategies that can be used to train employees on emotion regulation in these challenging jobs. The final article suggests that leadership and performance management should be aligned with the new team-centric structure of organizations in order to enhance team and organizational performance. In particular, they maintained that organizations need to adopt positive and relational leadership, and redesign performance appraisals to support the new team processes. They also recommended that organizations discontinue the use of forced distribution performance ranking systems. We are confident that these articles will inspire new ideas among researchers in our field, and foster additional theory and research on these important topics.

Book Synopsis Remote Management Styles by : Christopher Lombardo
Download or read book Remote Management Styles written by Christopher Lombardo and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional face-to-face office environments are gradually being replaced by virtual interaction and remote management. This physical separation can create circumstances in which conventional management approaches may no longer be appropriate. This research develops a model that explains how transformational leadership combined with the application of relational psychological contracts and open management communication could positively influence employee organizational commitment and intent to stay for teleworkers. The research design for this qualitative study was based on triangulation of evidence from multiple management literature sources in combination with secondary evidence from a systematic literature review and an ethnographic study (i.e., employee interviews). The results show that a specific work strategy building upon transformational leadership, relational psychological contracts, and open management communication is positively associated with increased organizational commitment for remote employees.
