There have been two critical leadership approaches. First
Generation Leadership (command and control) was the dominant model
until the 1940s. Second Generation Leadership (compliance coupled
with rewards and punishments) is still dominant today. This
approach is being rejected by 'Generation Y ', threatening the
longevity of traditional organisations. In Third Generation
Leadership and the Locus of Control, Douglas Long acknowledges the
need for a leadership approach that elicits engagement, commitment,
and enhanced personal, group, and organisational accountability.
This is Third Generation Leadership. At its core lies the issue of
where we centre our brain's locus of control and how this impacts
on our understanding of and approach to leadership. With examples
from everyday situations, underpinned by research, this book is
about understanding and applying aspects of neuroscience critical
for tomorrow's world. It provides a framework for addressing
problems through insights into how the way we use our brains
affects values, worldviews and behaviours. The author introduces
the concept of 'red zone - blue zone' to explain the differences
between a brain controlled by its stem-limbic areas (red zone) and
the limbic-cortical cortex areas (blue zone). This becomes a short
hand for describing and applying knowledge from neuroscience to
encourage practitioners in leadership and management roles to
achieve desired outcomes through becoming acquainted with different
areas of their brain. Anyone grappling with what is required to
deal with Generation Y people in a networked and mobile age will
welcome this introduction to the world of third generation
leadership.
