nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain of success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things.” ~ Nicolo Machiavelli, writer 14-2 Introduction Although leading change is perhaps the most difficult challenge facing any leader, it may be the best differentiator of managers from leaders, and of mediocre from exceptional leaders The best leaders are those who recognize the situational and follower factors inhibiting or facilitating change, paint a compelling vision of the future, and formulate and execute a plan that moves their vision from a dream to reality 14-3 Rational Approach to Organizational Change C=DxMxP>R C = Amount of change D = Dissatisfaction M = Model P = Process R = Resistance • The “D x M x P” is a multiplicative function • Beer’s model asserts that organizational change is a systematic process and large-scale changes can take months/years to implement • The model acts as a road map for implementing organizational change and is a diagnostic tool for understanding why change initiatives fail 14-4 Components of Organizational Alignment Figure 14.1: The Components of Organizational Alignment 14-5 Dissatisfaction (D) • Followers who are relatively content are not apt to change; malcontents are more likely to something to change the situation • Follower’s emotions are the fuel for organizational change, and change often requires a considerable amount of fuel • The key for leadership practitioners is to increase dissatisfaction to the point where followers are inclined to take action, but not so much that they decide to leave the organization 14-6 Model (M) There are four components to the model 1.Environmental scanning 2.A vision 3.Setting new goals to support the vision 4.Identifying needed system changes – A systems thinking approach views the organization as a set of interlocking systems where changes in one system can have intended and unintended consequences for other parts of the organization – Siloed thinking involves optimizing one part of the organization at the expense of sub-optimizing the organization’s overall effectiveness 14-7 Process (P) • The change initiative becomes tangible and actionable because it consists of the development and execution of the change plan • Change will only occur when the action steps outlined in the plan are actually carried out • The best way to get followers committed to a change plan is to have them create it • Leaders who address shifts in styles and inappropriate behaviors in a swift and consistent manner are more likely to succeed with their change initiatives 14-8 Resistance (R) • The expectation–performance gap is the difference between initial expectations and reality • If not managed properly, it can spark resistance (R), causing followers to revert back to old behaviors and systems to get things done • Leaders can help followers deal with their frustration by setting realistic expectations, demonstrating a high degree of patience, and ensuring that followers gain proficiency with the new systems and skills as quickly as possible 14-9 The Expectation-Performance Gap Figure 14.2: The Expectation–Performance Gap 14-10 Reactions to Change (SARA Model) Figure 14.3: Reactions to Change 14-11 The Rational Approach to Organization Change and the Interactional Framework Figure 14.4: The Rational Approach to Organization Change and the Interactional Framework 14-12 The Emotional Approach to Organizational Change • Charismatic leaders are passionate, driven individuals who are able to paint a compelling vision of the future • The combination of a compelling vision, heightened emotional levels, and strong personal attachments often compels followers to put forth greater effort to meet organizational or societal challenges • Charismatic movements can result in positive or negative organizational or societal changes 14-13 Charismatic Leadership: A Historical Review • Max Weber maintained that societies could be categorized into one of three types of authority systems: Traditional authority system Legal-rational authority system Charismatic authority system • James MacGregor Burns believed that leadership could take one of two forms: Transactional leadership Transformational leadership a Reframing 14-14 Charismatic Leadership: A Historical Review (continued) • All transformational leaders are charismatic, but not all charismatic leaders are transformational • Three newer theories of charismatic or transformational leadership: Conger and Kanungo: Leaders build trust in their vision by personal example, risk taking, and their total commitment to the vision House: Charismatic leaders achieve higher performance by changing followers’ self-concepts Avolio and Bass: Transformational leaders achieve stronger results because they heighten followers’ awareness of goals and the means to achieve them, they convince followers to take action for the collective good, and their vision of the future helps followers satisfy higher order needs 14-15 Factors Pertaining to Charismatic Leadership and the Interactional Framework Figure14.5: Factors Pertaining to Charismatic Leadership and the Interactional Framework 14-16 Leader Characteristics Several common threads exist in the behavior and style of both charismatic and transformational leaders 1.An imaginative, future-oriented vision 2.Superb rhetorical skills 3.An ability to build a particular kind of image in the hearts and minds of followers and to build trust by showing commitment to followers’ needs 4.A personalized leadership style 14-17 Follower Characteristics Charisma is probably more a function of the followers’ reactions to a leader than of the leader’s personal characteristics •Four unique characteristics of the reactions that followers have toward leaders: Identification with the leader and the vision Heightened emotional levels Willing subordination to the leader Feelings of empowerment 14-18 Followers’ Responses to Change Table14.2: Followers’ Responses to Change Source: B Yager (Boise, ID: The Bryan Yager Group, 2003) 14-19 Situational Characteristics Situational factors play an important role in determining whether a leader is perceived as charismatic Those factors believed to affect charismatic leadership are: Crises Social networks Outsourcing and organizational downsizing Time 14-20 Concluding Thoughts about the Characteristics of Charismatic and Transformational Leadership • Charismatic leadership is most fully understood when we consider how leader and situational factors affect the attribution process • It is unlikely that all the characteristics of charismatic leadership need to be present before charisma is attributed to a leader • Charismatic leadership can happen anywhere • Charismatic leadership is a two-way street between leaders and followers • Overwhelming evidence supports that charismatic or transformational leaders are more effective than their non-charismatic counterparts 14-21 Bass’s Theory of Transformational and • • • • Transactional Leadership Transformational leaders are more successful due to followers’ heightened emotional levels and willingness to work toward accomplishing the leader’s vision Transactional leaders motivate followers by setting goals and promising rewards for desired performance Transformational and transactional leadership comprise independent leadership dimensions Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) assesses the extent of transformational or transactional leadership and the extent of followers’ satisfaction with and belief in the effectiveness of their leader 14-22 Research Results of Transformational and Transactional Leadership • Transformational leadership is seen in all countries, institutions, and organizational levels but more commonly in public institutions and at lower organizational levels • Transformational leadership is a significantly better predictor of organizational effectiveness than transactional or laissez-faire leadership • Laissez-faire leadership is negatively correlated with effectiveness • Leaders can develop their transformational and transactional leadership skills • Charisma ultimately exists in the eyes of the beholder 14-23 Correlations between Five Factor Model Dimensions and Charismatic Leadership Characteristics for 125 Corporate CEOs and Presidents Table14.3 Correlations between Five Factor Model Dimensions and Charismatic Leadership Characteristics for 125 Corporate CEOs and Presidents

The rational approach to organizational change emphasizes analytic planning and management skills • The emotional approach to organizational change emphasizes leadership skills, leaderfollower relationships, and the presence of a crisis to drive organizational change • Either approach can result in organizational change, but the effectiveness of the change may depend on which approach
