Leadership, Team Building and Performance Enhancement Leadership & Team Building Leadership, Team Building and Performance Enhancement Structured Training Module: Leadership, Team Building and Performance Enhancement Preface There are many definitions of leadership but there is little consensus as to what makes a good leader. Is it the charisma, or the above average IQ or merely their official position? It is observed that A leader can be the CEO of an organization, or a first year employee who leads his or her team to success behind the scenes. A leader might lead through official authority and power, yet just as often great leaders lead through inspiration, persuasion and personal connections. In fact, authority could be bestowed with rank, but leadership is always earned. Good leadership is indispensable to organisational success. So, do leaders do different things? Or do they do things differently? Let’s find out. This structured training module hopes to take the participants as well as the trainers on a journey of revelation – about themselves and their co-workers. Without using too much of theory and technicalities, we build on robust foundations of research, insights and practice of renowned gurus, and have attempted to deliver a unique learning experience. There will be games, video shows, at least one movie, lots of discussions and some questionnaire for the participants to respond from time to time. Lectures and other conventional 2 Page Structured Training Module: Leadership, Team Building and Performance Enhancement deliveries, though could not be eliminated altogether, have been minimised. At the end of the five day course we hope to have made the participants imbue the vital ethos of leadership in an interactive and enjoyable module. They will have gained insights that will enable them to become valued and creative members of any team. Regional Training Institute, Kolkata thank the Training Division of the O/o the Comptroller and Auditor General of India for helping our faculty members with training, infrastructure and other resources that enabled us to prepare this STM. Moreover, we are most grateful for the confidence they have reposed upon us in asking us to handle this assignment. 3 Page Structured Training Module: Leadership, Team Building and Performance Enhancement TABLE OF CONTENTS Training Structure…………………………………………………………….……………….6 Aim Objectives Methodology Course Contents Programme structure Day I (Forenoon) Leadership and Leadership Styles…………………..……….9 Lecture cum discussion Game & Discussion Questionnaire Day I (Afternoon) Emotional Intelligence…………………………………………22 Exercise Lecture Questionnaire 1 Distribute Article 1&2 Questionnaire 2 Video Clip 1&2 Watching a Movie: Ex Ruka Hua Faisla by Shri Basu Chatterjee Day II (Forenoon) Interpersonal Relations……………………………………….…..90 Questionnaire Group Discussion Case study.

The rationale behind this endeavour is the development of effective leaders and participative teams. Objectives The objective of the training programme is enable the participants understand how good teams can be build and how to be a natural leader. Methodology The methodology consists a mix of the following: Lecture-cum-discussion Group Discussion Management Games Case Studies Movies and short clips. Duration 5 days Participants The target participants are the Asst. Audit/Accounts Officers to Sr. Audit/Accounts Officers. Essential Requirement on part of the Facilitator for the course. The course facilitator must have a grasp of the key concepts that will be discussed. He must at all-time maintain a positive and encouraging demeanour. His style should not be confrontational or condescending. He will be expected to encourage discussion and discovery of the key concepts by the participants themselves. He is not to lecture but to facilitate. He must create an atmosphere of trust. It is important that the facilitator announces that all questionnaires given to the participants will be retained by them, that the facilitator will not ask any participant about their results which the participants may share with the class if they feel comfortable. That all keys will be given to the participants to make their own assessments. This will encourage the participants to respond honestly to the questionnaires without any fear of being judged. The facilitator must not allow his personal beliefs and biases into the programme. 6 Page Structured Training Module: Leadership, Team Building and Performance Enhancement Course Contents Day Key Topic Detailed Contents I(F) Leadership and Introduction to Leadership, Leadership Styles Leadership Styles I(A) Emotional Introduction, Overview, Self- Awareness, Core Intelligence emotions.

  • Organizational Change and Development Chapter 12
    Organizational Change and Development Chapter 12 ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE AND DEVELOPMENT Introduction Change is a constant, a thread woven into the fabric of our personal and professional lives. Change occurs within our world and beyond -- in national and international events, in the physical environment, in the way organizations are structured and conduct their business, in political and socioeconomic problems and solutions, and in societal norms and values. As the world becomes more complex and increasingly interrelated, changes seemingly far away affect us. Thus, change may sometimes appear to occur frequently and randomly. We are slowly becoming aware of how connected we are to one another and to our world. Organizations must also be cognizant of their holistic nature and of the ways their members affect one another. The incredible amount of change has forced individuals and organizations to see “the big picture” and to be aware of how events affect them and vice versa. Organizational development (OD) is a field of study that addresses change and how it affects organizations and the individuals within those organizations. Effective organizational development can assist organizations and individuals to cope with change. Strategies can be developed to introduce planned change, such as team-building efforts, to improve organizational functioning. While change is a “given,” there are a number of ways to deal with change -- some useful, some not. Organizational development assists organizations in coping with the turbulent environment, both internally and externally, frequently doing so by introducing planned change efforts. Organizational development is a relatively new area of interest for business and the professions. While the professional development of individuals has been accepted and fostered by a number of organizations for some time, there is still ambiguity surrounding the term organizational development.

  • Managing Design with the Effective Use of Communication Media: the Relationship Between Design Dialogues and Design Team Meetings
    1072 CIB World Building Congress 2007 CIB2007- 213 Managing Design With The Effective Use Of Communication Media: The Relationship Between Design Dialogues And Design Team Meetings Stephen Emmitt and Ad den Otter ABSTRACT Effective and efficient design team communication is an essential component of architectural design and construction projects. Face-to-face communication, via meetings and dialogue, is an essential means for design team members to discuss and communicate design ideas. Meetings represent an important forum in which all parties have an opportunity to understand the implications of design decisions on a number of levels. Dialogue between design team members forms an important part of the interpersonal communication that occurs during design development. Dialogues have the highest chance of achieving understanding of the design, especially in the early phases when uncertainty is high and less design information is generated compared with later stages in the project. A survey of communication practices via project websites across multiple cases found that design team members chose dialogues as their preferred communication medium. The results are discussed against research findings from communication in design and management team meetings. The relationship between dialogues and team meetings is then explored from a design team management perspective. The results have implications for the effectiveness of communications within international design teams and hence the manner in which communications are planned and managed. Keywords: Design management, Team communication, Dialogues, Interaction, Meetings, Project Websites. CIB World Building Congress 2007 1073 1. INTRODUCTION Architectural design is a collaborative act that relies on effective interaction between project actors and stakeholders. Interaction affects the strength of relationships between the actors and ultimately colors their ability to work together successfully.
