  • Title: “Innovation Leadership: Navigating Unique Relationships and Embracing Change”

    An effective manager relies on their relationships with people and recognizes that each individual is unique and needs different things from them.
    Recall an experience with an innovation leadership style. What innovation leadership qualities did the person possess? How did these qualities impact the leader’s interactions with others? How does it compare with other leadership styles you’ve discussed?
    Respond to the prompt above in a minimum of 175 words. Provide references.
    Respond to 2 student post below within 100 words each statement. State why you agree or disagree and explain. Also provide examples. Provide references.
    1)I had a total mental block on this one. Having joined the military ten days after graduating high school and then maintaining employment on the civilian side of the DoD after separation; the innovation style of leadership is not one I’d say we (military) got to encounter often. However, a quick internet search of innovative military leadership and bam…it looks like the military is a perfect place for innovation. Pruitt (2016) states leadership, teamwork, determination and creative thinking, are all required for innovation. Coincidently these very things are part of every military member. This article specifically talked about a program called Patriot Boot Camp through DAV but there are several programs like this, directed at helping veterans become entrepreneurs. These programs help the innovative leaders that joined the military learn the additional skills necessary to pursue ventures of their own. I didn’t think of the military as innovative but realistically theyare a highly functioning team that has several managers. Each manager ischarged with finding ways to make their special team work and functioneffectively to meet and/or exceed goals of the whole. As with every organization,some managers are just better leaders.
    2)There are many types of leadership styles.1) the directive leadership style. This type of leader uses maximum authority. the decisions making are centered around the leader.2) Participative leadership style. here the leader and followers share decision making moments. They have discussion about the issues and they reach a consensus.3) free Rein leadership style. This practices follower centered decision making. here there is hardly any kind of direction or instruction from the leader. Egocentric style.4) innovation leadership style in a high tech, fast paced and ever changing workplace is increasingly difficult and is demanding too.leaders have to add new demands to traditional duties for example:Traditional versus New demandsgive orders to employees Empower people to work betterimplement work plans Generate ideas
    Manage individual employees Coach teams
    organize work Develop People
    Starting in the 1980 the character of work culture was changing to innovation while the changing focus of effective leadership was enterpreneurship. Many people were starting their own businesses, they were discovering new products, new services and different ways of doing things.

  • “The Changing Landscape of Tech Work and Tech Workers: From Aristocracy to Activism”

    As you know, the Bay Area and Silicon Valley hosts one of the planet’s main concentrations of tech workers and the tech industry (along with other tech hubs, such as Seattle, New York City, Austin, Texas, and Washington, DC). Normally, we assume that tech workers are fabulously well paid with wonderful working conditions in organizations that have egalitarian work cultures, etc. We often think of tech workers as part of the “aristocracy of labor” in terms of pay, benefits and working conditions. But this image has been changing in recent year, so is that still true today (or was it ever true)? What about the “shadow workforces” of big tech companies such as Google and Amazon (often called TVCs—temporary, vendors, contractors)? And why have so many tech workers tried to form unions and engaged in other labor protests in recent years? We’ve seen the first union in big tech in the form of the Alphabet Workers Union (Google’s parent company), as well as unionization campaigns at several smaller tech companies and among video game designers, tech workers in the media (including at the New York Times) and many others. So, why are more tech workers now thinking of themselves as workers who collective representation, rather than as a potential future CEO of the next billion-dollar start up? how are tech work and tech workers changing? Why have we seen walkouts by workers at Amazon, open letters from tech/corporate workers at Starbucks and elsewhere, Google workers and video game designers organizing unions and so on? What kinds of issues are they protesting – both “traditional issues,” such as job security and toxic management cultures, and “non-traditional issues,” such as the companies’ environmental commitments and cooperation with homeland security/immigration services, etc.. And how have companies like Google and others reacted to this upsurge in labor activism among workers in the tech industry? In short, how are both tech work and tech workers changing?

    Scenario
    Your manager has just returned from the monthly Senior Management meeting where all departmental heads have been asked to present a report that showcases how they contribute to business performance. As someone who has experience in evidence-based practice and data analytics, she has asked if you would produce a report for Senior Management that explains what evidence-based practice is and its relevance to people professionals.

In readiness for this you are required to complete a report comprising two sections. Section One – Report
    For section one, you are to produce a report that provides the Senior Management team with knowledge and understanding of what evidence-based practice is and the approaches that can be taken for effective critical thinking and decision-making that ensures integrity and value is upheld. You must ensure that you:

    Evaluate one appropriate analysis tool and one appropriate analysis method that might be applied by organisations to recognise and diagnose issues, challenges, and opportunities. (AC 1.2)

    Explain how people practices add value in an organisation and identify two methods that might be used to measure the impact of people practices. (AC 3.2)
    You should relate to academic concepts, theories and professional practice throughout your report to ensure that your work is critical and informed by using key academic texts, articles and relevant publications. All cited references used should be correctly acknowledged and presented in full in a bibliography at the end of your report. Section Two – Quantitative and qualitative analysis review
