LDR/531 WEEK 6 INDIVIDUAL ASIGNMNET Instructions: Adams, W. A., Anderson, J. J. (2016). Mastering Leadership: An Integrated Framework for Breakthrough Performance and Extraordinary Business Results. Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley & Sons. Required Learning Activities • Mastering Leadership: Ch. 12 • Mastering Leadership: Ch. 13 HERE IS THE ASSIGNMNET BELOW: Leading Organizational Change Instructions: Purpose of Assignment The purpose of this assignment is to provide an opportunity for the student to integrate and apply the individual and organizational leadership learning from this course by developing a plan for organizational change. Assignment Steps Review course assignments for Weeks 1-5, including the results of the Mastering Leadership SelfAssessment taken in Week 1. Select an organizational change in your company or one you know. Develop a 1,050-word analysis designing the action plan for you, as a leader, to address the organizational change. Include the following, in any sequence you choose: • Identify the organizational change process steps you would take and prioritize the order in which you would take them. • Include both individual and organizational leadership actions. • Scholarly citations must be given to support your rationale and proposed actions. Format your assignment consistent with APA guidelines. Supporting Material: Leading Organizational Change Grading Guide LEADERSHIP CIRCLE PROFILE: SELF-ASSESSMENT INTERPRETATION GUIDE The Leadership Circle Profile is the most comprehensive leadership assessment system available. It is unique for two reasons. First, it is the first competency tool to measure both the inner and outer aspects of leadership. Second, it is organized into a very powerful system for understanding human behavior and development, and for making sense of the interrelationships between the many dimensions being evaluated in you. THE GRAPH All your results are profiled in one large circular graph. This is to symbolize wholeness—your wholeness. We start with the assumption that you are a marvelously complex and beautifully integrated whole person. This Profile tries to do justice to that. The circle also quickly shows how all of the dimensions integrate with each other. The interactions among dimensions are represented by their placement in the circle. These interactions will be referenced throughout the report. The top half of the circle represents Creative competencies and the lower half represents Reactive tendencies. In the left half are those dimensions – creative or reactive – that are Relationship oriented; on the right are those Considered to be Task oriented. These Of the graph: O PE A RE C PL TI E VE SK TI VE Four quadrants CR TA E SK IVE AT Represent the E L P IVE AT PE CR O E orientations TA C A E R © T H E L E ADE RS H I P C I R C LE , LLC LEADERSHIP CIRCLE PROFILE™ CIRCLE WITHIN A CIRCLE The outer circle displays the results for each of the 29 dimensions measured by the LCP. The inner circle dimensions summarize the outer circle dimensions into 8 summary scores. Dimension definitions can be found on the following pages. The location of dimensions within the circle illustrates the relationship between dimensions. Adjacent dimensions describe similar behavior patterns that are positively correlated. Dimensions on opposite sides of the circle are opposing behavior patterns and are inversely correlated. HIGH 90 80 PERCENTILE SCORES 70 MEDIUM 60 50 40 LOW 30 20 10 90 80 70 60 50 HIGH 40 30 90 20 80 10 70 MEDIUM 60 50 40 LOW 30 20 10 What do the numbers mean? All scales display a percentile score – that is, how you compare to a large group of other leaders who have taken this survey (your numerical score of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 does not translate directly to your percentile score…the percentile score is relative to other profile participants). Low scores are close to the center and higher scores radiate further out from the center. 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 How do I determine if a score is high or low? Scores above 66% are to be considered high, and scores below 33% are to be considered low. Any scores that fall between 33% and 66% suggest that you will need to do some reflection on which aspects of “high” descriptions and which aspects of “low” descriptions apply to you. What do these dimensions measure? The definitions of the dimensions measured by your Self-Assessment are described below. Note: While your Self-Assessment scores could be similar to your results from a full assessment that includes input from others, they could also be quite different. Learning how your leadership is perceived by others adds another layer of insight to the profile, and deepens your personal understanding of your own leadership.

It is composed of: • Caring Connection – your interest in and ability to form warm, caring relationships. • Fosters Team Play – your ability to foster high-performance teamwork among team members that report to you, across the organization, and within teams in which you participate. • Collaborator – the extent to which you engage others in a manner that allows the parties involved to discover common ground in conflict situations, find mutually beneficial agreements, develop synergy, and create win-win situations. • Mentoring & Developing – your ability to develop others through mentoring, maintain growth-enhancing relationships, and help people grow and develop personally and professionally. • Interpersonal Intelligence – the interpersonal effectiveness with which you listen, and engage in conflict and controversy. A High Rating means you are naturally inclined to help others reach their potential through individual and team development. A Low Rating means you may have high Reactive scores, indicating your internal assumptions may be blocking your Relating capacity. SELF-AWARENESS Self-Awareness measures your orientation to ongoing professional and personal development, as well as the degree to which inner self-awareness is expressed through high-integrity leadership. It is composed of: • Selfless Leader – the extent to which you pursue service over selfinterest. It measures a very high state of personal awareness where the need for credit and personal ambition is far less important than creating results—in collaborative relationships—which serve a common good. • Balance – your ability, in the midst of the conflicting tensions of modern life, to keep a hearty balance between business and family, activity and reflection, work and leisure. • Composure – your ability, in the midst of conflict and high-tension situations, to remain composed and centered, and to maintain a calm, focused perspective. • Personal Learner – the degree to which you demonstrate a strong and active interest in learning, and personal and professional growth. A High Rating means you actively pursue and value personal and professional development. You are an alive and vital person. Having developed your sense of purpose, you act from your internal center, consciously expressing your core values. You are trusted to “walk your talk” and people respect you as someone who acts with integrity. A Low Rating means you are limiting your leadership impact by not actively pursuing personal development. Your inner life and outer life are out of balance. © T H E L E ADE RS H I P C I R C LE , LLC AUTHENTICITY Authenticity measures your capability to relate to others in an authentic, courageous, and high-integrity manner. It is composed of: • Integrity – how well you adhere to the set of values and principles that you espouse; that is, how well you can be trusted to “walk your talk.” • Courageous Authenticity – your willingness to take tough stands, bring up the “un-discussibles” (risky issues the group avoids discussing), and openly deal with difficult relationship problems. A High Rating means your inner and outer lives are congruent. Your behavior matches your values and others trust that you can be counted on to keep your word, meet your commitments, deal with them honestly and fairly, and remain true to your purpose. A Low Rating means high Reactive scores may indicate that your internal assumptions are blocking your Authenticity capacity. SYSTEMS AWARENESS Systems Awareness measures the degree to which your awareness is focused on whole system improvement and on community welfare (the symbiotic relationship between the long-term welfare of the community and the interests of the organization). It is composed of: • Community Concern – the service orientation from which you lead. It measures the extent to which you link your legacy to service of community and global welfare. • Sustainable Productivity – your ability to achieve results in a way that maintains or enhances the overall long-term effectiveness of the organization. • Systems Thinker – the degree to which you think and act from a whole system perspective as well as the extent to which you make decisions in light of the long-term health of the whole system. A High Rating means you lead with the big picture in view. You do not jump to fix symptoms. You look for root cause. You know that the causes of current problems are to be found in the design of the current system out of which you operate. You know that breakthrough solutions cannot be found within the current paradigm; they require moving to new paradigms of thought and new principles of system design. You are an architect of systems that naturally manifest the results you envision. This larger perspective allows you to find leverage points—making change (perhaps seemingly small at the time) at the right place in the system that results in significant improvements in organizational performance. A Low Rating means your leadership could benefit from developing more of a systems perspective. It suggests that your focus tends to be narrow and short term. While this may be necessary to ensure survival and to resolve a crisis, it may have become too ingrained. You must cultivate the ability to focus on more than one factor. You must look for the causes of problems that rise out of the complex interrelationship between multiple variables. © T H E L E ADE RS H I P C I R C LE , LLC ACHIEVING Achieving measures the extent to which you offer visionary, authentic, and high-achievement leadership. It is composed of: • Strategic Focus – the extent to which you think strategically. • Purposeful & Visionary – the extent to which you clearly communicate and model commitment to personal purpose and vision. • Achieves Results – the degree to which you are goal directed and have a track record of goal achievement and high performance. • Decisiveness – your ability to make decisions on time, and the extent to which you are comfortable moving forward in uncertainty. A High Rating means you maintain a high standard of excellence in your work. You are recognized as a leader in your field. Your own values, beliefs, vision, and intuition motivate you from within. You take responsibility for your own actions. Risk taking is easier because you have a high sense of self-worth. Your inner self-confidence is clearly projected to the outside world. You empower others by modeling and teaching your creative process. You know how to create vision and translate it into strategies, strategies into goals, and goals into actions that achieve results. Your optimism, creativity, and natural curiosity are contagious. Others learn this just by being around you. You have a deep sense of purpose, and create out of love for the result or the process of creating. You do what you do because you want to be creative, learn, and grow. A Low Rating means you may lack many of the competencies that help you make things happen. You should examine internal assumptions that may be blocking your creative capability. CONTROLLING Controlling measures the extent to which you establish a sense of personal worth through task accomplishment and personal achievement. It is composed of: • Perfect – your need to attain flawless results and perform to extremely high standards in order to feel secure and worthwhile as a person. • Driven – the extent to which you are in overdrive. • Ambition – the extent to which you need to get ahead, move up in the organization, and be better than others. • Autocratic – your tendency to be forceful, aggressive, and controlling. A High Rating means you strive to take charge, be on top, and exert control over others in order to gain self-worth, personal safety, and identity. You see the world as made up of winners and losers, where powerful people stand the best chance. So, in order to survive, you must be one of them. You must excel heroically, be perfect, perform flawlessly, and/or dominate. Hence, you become one of the movers and shakers of the world. A Low Rating means you have few of the characteristics described above. It further suggests (depending on your scores on other scales) that you may possess many of the strengths of this stance without the liabilities. © T H E L E ADE RS H I P C I R C LE , LLC PROTECTING Protecting measures the belief that you can protect yourself and establish a sense of worth through withdrawal, remaining distant, hidden, aloof, cynical, superior, and/or rational. It is composed of: • Arrogance – your tendency to project a large ego—behavior that is experienced as superior, egotistical, and self-centered. • Critical – your tendency to take a critical, questioning, and somewhat cynical attitude. • Distance – your tendency to establish a sense of personal worth and security through withdrawal, being superior and remaining aloof, emotionally distant, and above it all. A High Rating means you tend to keep yourself safe by acting aloof and maintaining distance in your relationships. You may also hold back from the risks that might come from fully deploying your creative abilities. Safety means being above it all. This stance can come from an inner lack of confidence, self-doubt, inferiority or its opposite, superiority. It may well be that you project an air of superiority, needing to be right, find fault, and put others down as a strategy to build yourself up. The need to build yourself up may spring from feelings of self-doubt and vulnerability. Protecting is an internal set of assumptions that link security with distance, and worth with either being small and uninvolved or big and superior. A Low Rating means you may possess many of the gifts described above without the liabilities. It suggests that your Achieving, Relating, Authenticity and Self-Awareness are not held back by this form of Protecting. COMPLYING Complying measures the extent to which you get a sense of self-worth and security by complying with the expectations of others rather than acting on what you intend and want. It is composed of: • Conservative – the extent to which you think and act conservatively, follow procedure, and live within the prescribed rules of the organization with which you are associated. • Pleasing – your need to seek others’ support and approval in order to feel secure and worthwhile. • Belonging – your need to conform, follow the rules, and meet the expectations of authorities. • Passive – the degree to which you give away your power to others and to circumstances outside your control. A High Rating means you tend to relinquish power to others and to the circumstances of life. You may even experience yourself as at the mercy of circumstances over which you have little control. You tend to see the world as full of powerful people who can control or protect you. Because of this belief, you tend to submit to those in power and comply with their expectations. You do this to gain safety and win approval. You tend to equate personal worth and security with meeting and living within others’ expectations. A Low Rating means you have few of the characteristics described above. It further suggests (depending on your scores on other scales) that you may possess many of the strengths of this stance without the liabilities. © T H E L E ADE RS H I P C I R C LE , LLC SUMMARY MEASURES The top half of the circle maps Creative competencies that contribute to your effectiveness. The lower half of the circle maps self-limiting Reactive tendencies. Stronger scores in the bottom half of the circle are related to weaker scores in the top half. This is because reactive, self–limiting assumptions tend to reduce all the creative competencies. The right half of the circle has to do with Task (getting the job done creatively and effectively). The left half of the circle has to do with the nature of your Relationships with people and groups. The goal here is good balance so that you can achieve results and develop people simultaneously. The following dimensions are intended to bring everything together. They summarize all of the above into a few useful measures. • Reactive-Creative Scale reflects the degree of balance between the creative dimensions and the reactive dimensions. The percentile score here gives you a sense of how you compare to other managers with respect to the amount of energy you put into reactive versus creative behavior. It suggests the degree to which your leadership, relationships, and goal-oriented behaviors are coming out of a creative or reactive orientation. It also suggests the degree to which your self-concept and inner motivation come from within or are determined by external expectations, rules, or conditions. Good balance results in high percentile scores. • Relationship-Task Balance measures the degree of balance you show between the achievement competencies and the relationship competencies. It is a measure of the over, under, or balanced development of either half of the equation (the people half or the task half) that makes for great leadership. Good balance results in high percentile scores. • Leadership Potential Utilization is a bottom-line measurement. It looks at all of the dimensions measured above and compares that overall score to the scores of other leaders who have taken this survey. It sorts through all the high and low scores in your profile to assess how much of your leadership potential you are actualizing. • Leadership Effectiveness measures your perceived level of overall effectiveness as a leader. It provides a way of answering the question, “So in the end, how am I doing?” Low Balance 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 High Balance 90 Relationship-Task Balance CREATIVE Courage o Authent us icity ty Integri re su po m Co nal rso Pe rner Lea Com m Co unit nce y rn 90 80 Su Pr sta od in uc ab tiv le ity 70 60 e nc la Ba 50 Se Le lfle ad ss er 30 ro ll 40 High Co ng 60 Dri 80 90 Protecting tio n g in ng lo Be 10 A m bi 20 30 40 50 at cr to Au 60 70 ic 80 90 Dis tan ce ce gan Arro Critical REACTIVE Leadership Effectiveness Low 10 20 30 40 50 70 ven ng asi Ple 70 Pa ss ive 60 nt l yi 50 10 mp 10 in g 20 80 90 10 50 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 40 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 Identity 60 70 80 90 High © T H E L E ADE RS H I P C I R C LE , LLC Low 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 30 10 20 20 Perfect 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 30 Leadership Potential Utilization Se l Rela ting 40 Co RELATIONSHIP 50 20 Reactive-Creative Scale 60 TASK Caring Fo Connection T sters eam P lay Colla bora tor Me n De torin vel g op & In ing te Int rper ell so ige na nc l e Creative 90 80 70 Decisiveness 70 80 Sys tem sA wa re ieves Ach lts Resu 60 90 ul & sef y r rpo Pu isiona V 50 Authenticity ess en ar w f-A gic te s ra St ocu F 10 ing hiev Ac 40 20 ss ne 30 30 ive Conservat Reactive s em r st ke Sy hin T 40 CONTACT Michael O’Connor Vice President of Business Development The Leadership Circle Phone: (704) 231-7805 Email: michael.oconnor@fcg-global.com www.leadershipcircle.com LOW 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 HIGH 90 RELATIONSHIP-TASK BALANCE CREATIVE Coura ge ous Authe nt ic ity ty Inte gri 100 na l rso Pe rne r Le a m Co B an al su po Co mm u Co nc e nity rn 90 re 80 Su Pr sta od in uc a b tiv le ity 70 60 ce 50 Se Le lfle a d ss er 30 Int e Int rpe e ll rso ige n nc a l e Me De ntori ve n lop g ing Aw lfSe ss Coll a bo ra to r s 90 60 ting Foste r s Te a m 40 Re la 30 20 10 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 Identity 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Pe rfe c t 10 20 ly i mp ng g Co 50 Co nt ro lli n 30 40 60 a Ple sin g 80 90 Be on bi ti in ng lo 10 g Am 20 30 40 50 ic at cr to Au 60 e 70 80 Dis ta LEADERSHIP CIRCLE PROFILE™ NaJina Lide 90 nc e c ga n Arro 100 e Critic a l REACTIVE 2017-06-26 LEADERSHIP EFFECTIVENESS LOW 10 20 30 40 50 50 40 30 PERCENTILE SCORES: High Scores from the 66th to the 100th percentile are strong scores.

Leading Organizational Change
Organizational Change in Adopting IT Business Processes
The essence of integrating Information Technology in business processes in today’s
business world is incalculable, with statistics depicting a huge improvement in productivity, work
satisfaction (Henry, 2008) and effectiveness of models and processes put in place. The deployment
of information and communication technologies in the public relations sector and also conduct of
retail trade is a significant move that will heighten the bars of productivity (Henry, 2008) and bring
about the gratification of employees and customer satisfaction. This is more so for an organization
that is centered on offering retail trade services in the marketplace.
Organizational Change Process Steps
The implementation of change in an organization is critical, putting into consideration that
the essence of change is breaking the status quo (Serina & Timothy, 2015) and diving into the sea
of new possibilities and a whole new experience. The sojourning in the comfort zone is
discouraged and a paradigm shift is taken on operational protocols in the organization. This calls
for a well laid sequence of steps (Henry, 2008) that will be analytically taken towards ...
