Results based leadership

The outcomes or success is tied within the competencies or goals leadership

is trying to achieve.

Strengths: Strong educated leaders, focusing on organization strategies

Army leadership model (2007)

Takes leadership and makes it the focus. All choices are

directed to leadership. Influences people by providing
purpose, direction, and motivation while trying to
accomplish a mission.

Strengths: High value on morality (leader is role model)

Weakness: If the leader lacks experience they will not be a

high value role model. Could poorly influence followers

Ministry (1995)

If you follow the golden rule: do onto others as you would
have them do to you. If you do this you will be following
the model

Strengths: easy model to follow

Burn's Transformational Leadership model (1978)

influences the leader to adopt a style most fitting to the specific
circumstances. Can be transactional and transformational

and integrity

Kouzes and Posner's leadership framework (1995)

To communicate the vision to followers in a matter that

resolves in desired behavior changes

Strengths: You will be closer to your employees because you

have better communication amongst them.

Weaknesses: It can only if a shared vision can be

communicated to followers in ways that changes the values. It
is difficult to accomplish due to physical responsibilities, as well
as age barriers, subcultures, and educational levels.

Our entire group worked on the concept map together. There were not
specific parts that we each solely performed. It was a 100% group
effort.
