For category 9, I believe finding meaning and enjoyment in life is the most important thing someone can do. If you can find meaning and feel fulfilled through work, personal relationships, and what you do in your free time, I believe you’ll be in good shape. That’s what I strive for. I believe I am at a point in my life where I feel fulfilled in all of these categories. It’s important to build strong relationships with others. The people you put around yourself say a lot about your character and where your life is going. Coming out of high school 12 years ago, I didn’t like where my life was going and who I was spending time with. I felt like I was trapped in a bubble. But after I graduated, I stopped talking to all of of the people …show more content…
I tend to treat others as I would like to be treated, and have always been considered a good listener. If a coworker has a problem, whether it be emotional or work related, I recognize the importance of listening and lending support. These interactions build respect and relationships. Part of being a transformational leader is building a foundation of trust and respect. A reciprocal and interdependent relationship then develops, empowering both employees and this increases a sense of belonging (Rolfe, 2011). Morale then can increase, which empowers followers to develop their leadership skills (in theory). These feeling to build relationships with people are genuine for me (and they need to be). Followers will see right through your interest in their well-being as insincere. I think that’s a major aspect of being a successful transformational leader. You need to be honest and careful about your actions with followers. For many this type of leadership comes natural, since it goes in line with their personality. For others, it may seem forced and scripted which can potentially do more harm than …show more content…
One of my strong suits is being a good critical thinker. In order to be a successful transformational leader, one needs to be aware of the complex relationships you’re building with followers, and how certain actions taken can alter these relationships. Correcting insubordination or inappropriate behavior may damage these relationships that have developed over time. It’s easier to deal with corrective punishments when you’re a different type of leader, such as transactional, since punishment is built into the theory. It comes down to treating others how you’d like to be treated. If you address a certain issue, such as frequent tardiness, with openness and respect, the situation would hopefully get resolved. If it was me in that position, I would respect a leader that was direct with me, told me what my punishment was, and asked what we could do to help remedy the situation. The authoritarian leadership style is not generally well received, so mutual respect is necessary this day and age for a successful

The audience for writing project one: summary and response will be my classmates and my instructor, Avon Waters. I am writing this for English 111 – an online Ivy Tech college course. This is the first writing project of four for semester one. The assignment is to select a core reading resource from the group listed and perform a summary and response style paper, using proper APA formatting and introducing the concept of a situation analysis.

All throughout Colorado there has been many developments and expansions. One of these developments is the railroad system. Railroads were and still are such an essential means of transportation for people as well for industries involving coal and fuel, and many other things. There are many key players and developers that took part in revitalizing Colorado in the 1870s. Some of these key players that contributed to the territory’s growth were William A.H. Loveland, Edward L. Berthoud, Henry M. Teller, and William Jackson Palmer.
Hope you had a great week, I enjoyed reading your post and agree that we as individuals need to have accountably for our own health and well-being, in particular, making healthier choices. Below you will find my response to this week’s post.
I read the Syllabus very carefully, as requested, and I do not have any questions. The topic I choose to do a web field trip on to search and return with one fact is “Specific Populations to assess: developmentally challenged”. I am using information from APA.org, which is where I found the one fact that was requested for this assignment. What I found was a set of guidelines for the treatment and assessment of people with disabilities that were developed by a task force of APA specialists. I am using the section “Testing and Assessment” which includes Guidelines 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17 (APA Task Force, 2017) I found the fact that I am going to share under Guideline 15 which is “Psychologists strive to determine whether accommodations are appropriate for clients to yield a valid test score” (APA Task Force, 2017, Guideline 15).
Not only should you treat people the way they should be treated, you must make sure that you treat you subordinates with the utmost respect. Leaders must show respect by seeking to understand other people’s background, see things from their perspectives and appreciate what is important to them. Everyone should be treated with respect and dignity, no matter what their race, gender, creed, religion and or beliefs are. A leader’s willingness to tolerate discrimination or harassment on any basis, or failure to cultivate a climate of respect will lower trust and erode the team’s unit cohesion. Next will be integrity.
Bass (1990) states that transformational leadership is identified by different patterns of behavior. Firstly , transformational leadership delivers the charisma to be a leader in order to gain respect and trust. Secondly, the characteristics of a leader show efforts to change a purpose of the transformation process and to effectively communicate. Finally, transformational leadership proposes that leaders treat employees individually to show them attention and provide them coaching and advice to show that you care about your employees. However, Wang and Howell (2010) claim that transformational leadership is in every individual.This means an individual can develop their potential to enhance their abilities and skills to improve and overcome any weaknesses. In relation to group work transformational leadership helps to grow common values and beliefs, and to inspire group members to reach their group goals. In this type of situation, leaders treat equally towards members and to make them feel comfortable. However, on occasions problems occur during team work which puts a leader into a situation to overcome the condition. For example, if one of my team members has no belief in me to lead the group, my attitude towards the group and the member will change as they have shown a lack of confidence and interest in teamwork. According to Novicevic, Harvey, Buckley, Brown & Evans (2006) explains that authentic leadership is when a leader shows their individual responsibility in what they were responsible for in their organization. Novicevic, Harvey, Buckley, Brown & Evans (2006) discusses a particular style of leadership which is the matrix of executive leadership. This style of leadership occurs when a leader has lost confidence in them self. The

Transformational leader is considered ethical in nature. Transformational leader helps followers, understand their followers ‘problems and give them solutions to tackle problems. Followers get personally attached with their leaders and do in the same manner as the leader wants. Transformational leader is may a source of employees’ satisfaction and commitment.
In the work place there will always be someone whom you will not get along with. It is very important for an effective follower to deal with these people while still remaining an effective worker; "Good followers learn how to get along with those who have differences while not ignoring those differences" (Moran, 2014). For example, if a coworker has different beliefs than you, it is important to be able to respect those beliefs enough to avoid any altercation that would diminish the productivity of both workers. Another example would be to play peacemaker during co-worker fights and arguments, normal workers would either get involved in the argument or completely avoid it all together, however an effective follower would deal with it differently. An effective follower would not take a side and do anything possible to break it up and have co-workers return to their job. Having the skills to deal with all types of managers also makes an effective follower, it is very important to remain neutral and to not let the attitude of a manager change the way you
Transformational leadership focuses on what the leader can accomplish instead of his personal characteristics and how his relationship with others. This leader “helps to bring about major, positive changes by moving group members beyond their self-interests and toward the good of the group, organization, or society (Dubrin, 2007, p. 84). The essence of this leader is to develop and transform people.
