Task description
Leadshare is a major Canadian consultancy that wanted to set up an excellent succession planning system. This case study reports on the outcomes.
You will use the case material to gain a better understanding of the management and leadership challenges facing Leadshare and other organisations and write a report of no more than 2,500 words (excluding title page, references, and appendix) that responds to the following questions. Remember to build a strong scholarly argument in your report.
Your report covering “the succession management and leadership challenges facing Leadshare and other organisations” argument will include:
The provided reading concludes that “Appreciative Inquiry provides many contributions to collective and collaborative efforts and maybe most ideal in those settings”. In no more than 200 words per section (about half a page) argue, which one or two of the leadership styles, roles, or types introduced in this unit would help you achieve each of the major themes in the article:
1) The Feeling of Unity,
2) Respected, Responsible, Inspirational Leadership,
3) Justice and Equality, and
4) People Development and Professional Competence. (total 800 words)
Hint: Justify why you have selected your 1 or 2 leadership styles/roles/types to achieve the 4 major themes as opposed to the other leadership styles/roles/types you could have chosen. You may choose to have one or two leadership styles for all four points or choose a different style per point.
The case study discusses succession planning at Leadshare and proposes 11 “factors of Culture Continuity”. Please choose any five of these factors, and in no more than 300 words each, argue (with references) why you think this factor was “evident” or “not evident” in an enterprise you know deeply (one where you have worked). (total 1500 words)
Reminder: you need to use these two points in your overall argument of “the succession management and leadership challenges facing Leadshare and other organisations”.
