According to management and psychology courses, as well as legions of consultants in organizational psychology, shared vision in dyads, teams and organizations can fill us with hope and inspire new possibilities, or delude us into following false prophets. However, few research studies have empirically examined the impact of shared vision on key organizational outcomes such as leadership effectiveness, employee engagement, organizational citizenship, coaching and organizational change. As a result, the field of organizational psychology has not yet established a causal pattern of whether, if, and how shared vision helps dyads, teams and organizations function more effectively. The lack of em...
The Science of Change integrates over 50 years of research in many fields into a unifying theory of behavioral change, Intentional Change Theory (ICT). This multi-level, fractal theory is equally applicable to getting better at playing the guitar, achieving a department sales target, rallying a community to action over a toxic spill, or mobilizing a country to fight a pandemic. In this book, Richard E. Boyatzis examines each phase and principle of the theory and provides examples of sustained, desired change at the individual, dyadic, team, organizational, community, and country level.
IN THIS NEW BOOK, Frederick Chavalit Tsao and Chris Laszlo argue that current approaches to leadership fail to produce positive outcomes for either businesses or the communities they serve. Employee disengagement and customer fickleness remain high, resulting in a lack of creativity and collaboration at all levels of entrepreneurial activity. Investor demand for Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) continues to be poorly integrated into profit strategies. Drawing on extensive research, this book shows how changing a person's consciousness is the most powerful lever for unlocking his or her leadership potential to create wealth and serve humankind. A wide range of practices of connecte...
You're trying to help--but is it working? Helping others is a good thing. Often, as a leader, manager, doctor, teacher, or coach, it's central to your job. But even the most well-intentioned efforts to help others can be undermined by a simple truth: We almost always focus on trying to "fix" people, correcting problems or filling the gaps between where they are and where we think they should be. Unfortunately, this doesn't work well, if at all, to inspire sustained learning or positive change. There's a better way. In this powerful, practical book, emotional intelligence expert Richard Boyatzis and Weatherhead School of Management colleagues Melvin Smith and Ellen Van Oosten present a clear ...
Managing a high-growth organization requires both strategy and adaptability. Unfortunately, start-up founders and executives seeking to scale up to the next level find all too frequently that growth turns into chaos. Rather than laying the groundwork for the future, organizations get stuck by covering up complex problems with unsustainable band-aids and duct-tape fixes, implementing anecdote-based solutions from the latest tech-industry unicorns or leadership books, and relying on too much on-the-fly learning from inexperienced managers. This book is the definitive guide for leaders of high-growth organizations seeking to understand and execute the people-management principles that are essen...

Quase três décadas depois, ele revisita o conceito e mostra como utilizá-lo para atingir um desempenho máximo na vida e no trabalho.

Dieses Buch zeigt, was die Prinzipien der Evolution mit Ameisen und dem Staat Bhutan gemeinsam haben. Mit dem „Gross Corporate Happiness“ Ansatz stellt es ein wissenschaftlich fundiertes und in der Praxis erprobtes Führungsmodell vor und erhebt den Mitarbeiter vom Kostenfaktor zum wirtschaftlich wichtigsten Treiber für nachhaltigen Unternehmenserfolg in der Wissensgesellschaft. Das Werk liefert Antworten auf die brennendsten Fragen der Unternehmensführung im Kontext von Globalisierung und Digitalisierung: Wie motiviere ich meine Mitarbeiter richtig? Wie steigere ich die Innovationsleistung meines Unternehmens? Wie schaffe ich eine Kultur von Kooperation, Agilität und Resilienz in Zeiten beständigen Wandels? Dr. Rüdiger Fox erläutert wie intrinsische Motivation im Wirtschaftskontext zum Business Case wird und schlüsselt dafür die organisationsinternen Rahmenbedingungen auf, die neben der Zufriedenheit und dem „Flow“, die Innovations- und Kooperationsfähigkeit der Mitarbeiter steigern. Aus seiner praktischen Führungserfahrung schöpfend, zeigt der Autor, wie Organisationen in komplexen und dynamischen Märkten damit deutlich effizienter werden.
