Leading at All Levels: Using Systemic Ideas to Get the Most from
the Workplace moves away from traditional perspectives on
leadership and, utilising ideas from systemic consultation,
provides a rationale for leadership at all levels, emphasising the
potential of everyone in organisations to lead in their own area of
work. Reviewing the theory of resilience and its place in
organisational life, the book provides guidance on how to foster
resilience in the workplace. Written in accessible language, the
book is divided into three sections: on work and leadership, on
problem solving and finally on approaches to leading at all levels.
A variety of perspectives on leadership are explored, as well as
barriers to effective leadership and there are many suggestions for
improvement. The book discusses the ways in which systemic thinking
can contribute to enhance leadership, which includes considering
different perceptions and experiences of leadership, the influence
of power in workplace relationships and organisational outcomes,
the link between positive employee engagement for performance and
well-being at work, and the importance of interpersonal and
relational behaviour on leadership. The book also considers the
importance of everyday workplace interactions to our understanding
of leadership and supports a wide understanding of workplace
conflict. It contains examples throughout, which are applicable to
different types and sizes of organisation, and provides suggestions
for readers relating to the practice of leadership at all levels.
Good leadership is of great importance to today's organisations.
The book suggests that by paying more attention to leadership at
all levels, organisations can work towards improving productivity,
which has been highlighted as a critical issue in the UK since the
2008 recession. Leading at All Levels will appeal to systemic
trainees, practitioners and systemic consultants and to those in
related professions, as well as to personal development
practitioners and coaches.
