Week 6
Overview
This week we will study the development of leadership skills and managing conflict,
stress, change and culture. Management and leadership are related, but not the same.
As describe by Rue & Byars, in Management: Skills and Application
leadership enlists
the support of employees to produce the movement and motivates employees to
implement the strategy; where as, management is a process that involves planning,
organizing, staffing, motivating, and controlling. All organizations have conflict and
stress. It is incumbent upon management to minimize the negative impact of conflict
and stress on the lives of employees. Organization provided Employee Assistance
Programs (EAPs) go a long way in assisting employees. A true constant in managing
today's organizations is change. Effective and successful management learns to re-
align an organization's culture to be responsive to change.
