Sustaining Leadership Over 20 Years Essay

Introduction

17 years of military life have taught me more than how to implement tactics and procedures. They have taught me about people. How they grow. How they burn out. How leaders can positively or negatively impact units over time. When I was young, I thought leadership meant being tough on Soldiers, knowing doctrine, and accomplishing the mission. I thought leadership was making sure the task in front of me got done. As I have matured, I have learned that sustaining your leadership capability over a career requires intentional personal management. If you do not manage yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally, your ability to perform will fade over time. Here are the four things I have learned about sustaining your leadership abilities over a 20-year career.

Building Relationships Over Time

One thing I have learned in 17 years is people. Relationships determine your long-term success. When I was young I thought rank alone gave me respect. I thought because I knew my job and could enforce standards I was enough. As I have grown, I have learned that some leaders lead only by rank. Many of these leaders burned out and grew old before their time. They became isolated from their Soldiers. Soldiers did their job but did not trust their leader. I have watched leaders fall out from stress not because they had a lot of workload but because they failed to build relationships with those around them. When life gets hard and stress increases, trust becomes everything. Units with strong relationships thrive under pressure while units who only know discipline fall apart. Over my career I have learned that sustaining leadership is investing in others daily. It is listening more than you speak. Accepting feedback from young Soldiers. Correcting the standard not the Soldier. Recently, I have learned that you cant enter the latter half of your career without maintaining healthy professional relationships. Its not possible. Leaders who fail to build trust with their Soldiers will have a hard time being effective long-term. My plan for personally managing my leadership ability begins with cultivating trust by listening, providing mentorship, and treating everyone the same.

Personal Mission Statement

After watching leaders fail and succeed over the years I have formed a personal mission statement: To lead in a manner that develops others, maintains personal integrity, and prepares future leaders to think critically under pressure. This mission came from studying leaders who plateaued early in their careers and those who grew with time. Leaders who sustained their leadership ability over a long career were not the loudest or toughest leaders in the room. They were consistent. They lived by discipline. But most importantly, they focused on developing others around them. My personal mission helps remind me that being a leader is not about how successful you are today. Its about the impact you have years from now. If I only care about todays mission I will only be effective today. But if I work to develop others I can impact Soldiers well after I leave the position. Sustaining leadership over 20 years starts with why? What is your mission? If you have not taken the time to define your purpose as a leader you will become frustrated, bitter, and eventually complacent.

Long-Range Plan

As I look to the future, I know that if I want to finish my career strong I must manage my future like I would a mission. I have watched too many leaders become lazy in their final years of service. These leaders stopped bettering themselves. They became complacent with how they conducted themselves because they got by in the past. That will not be me. My long-range plan focuses on three things. Continuing education. Leadership, Army teaching, and war changes constantly. To stay effective and relevant, I must continue to educate myself. Not only will this help me become a better leader, but it will teach me how to think instead of reacting from experience alone. Secondly, I will stay physically ready. As you get older, staying physically fit becomes more and more difficult. I know that fatigued leaders make poor decisions and leaders who are out of shape become impatient. If I demand my Soldiers to hold standards, I must hold them as well. Lastly, I will maintain a strict mental and emotional discipline. Over the years frustration happens. We have all had many deployments, field problems, and high-tempo operations that try our mental strength. When I allow myself to become frustrated or feel like giving up, my attitude affects the entire platoon. My long-range plan consists of taking care of my mental strength by staying adaptable to change. The Army of 2019 is not the Army I joined in 2002. Instead of fighting change, I will embrace it.

Preparation

Preparing to be a leader for one mission is a lot different than preparing to be a leader for 20 years. Preparing for longevity in the Army requires habits instead of bursts of motivation. I have realized that leadership can become burnt out just like Soldiers. If you are constantly reacting to situations instead of taking the time to prepare you will burn yourself out. Preparation looks different for everyone. For me, preparation starts with setting boundaries for myself and managing my time wisely. It also means coaching and mentoring other Soldiers. Nothing keeps me more engaged than knowing I am teaching someone to take my job in the future.Another important aspect of preparation is personal after-action reviews. Like we are used to conducting in the Army, I take the time to reflect on situations where I think I handled myself well and where I can improve. This allows me grow continuously.

Systems-Level Understanding

My 17 years of service has taught me that leadership does not operate on a single level. When a leader at the senior level becomes burnt out or negatively affects the unit morale.Standards drop. When that leader maintains discipline and leads by example, watch how that positively affects the system. All of your personal management habits affect more than just you. They affect your team and unit.

Conclusion

Leadership over 20 years is possible. But it is not accidental. It comes from your intentional preparation and self-management.During my 17 years of service, I learned that sustaining your leadership ability comes down to four things. Building lasting relationships, having a defined personal mission, creating a long-range plan, and preparing yourself for tomorrow. I used to think leadership is only enforcing standards or beating a gun range score. But now I realize leadership is about discipline over time and developing others as you go. If I continue to manage my body, mind, relationships, and daily routine I can go out strong at the end of my career having a positive influence on others.

For the purposes of the Assignments in this module, you are a manager with Allied Products, a U.S.-based manufacturer of consumer packaged goods. Your company has recently acquired manufacturing operations in Mexico and will be using these facilities to vertically integrate production of several of your key product lines. You and a number of your U.S.-based counterparts will each be leading a profit center for a specific equipment type (yours is blenders). In the coming weeks, each of these profit centers will be forming a six- to eight-member team representing key functions in planning, manufacturing, marketing, and distributing its product. Each of these virtual teams will be led by a U.S.-based manager, some of whom are newer to the role and may lack experience in leading teams.

Your senior leader has asked you to create a set of three presentations for the group of managers about choosing appropriate communication methods and strategies for communicating effectively, taking into consideration the purpose of your message, your audience, and your context. In this case, you will want to highlight considerations for virtual teams, as well as culture, since Mexico is considered a higher context culture compared to the United States. Your presentations must include title slides and references slides that include appropriate academic and professional support for your ideas. You will also need to provide an accompanying script in the Notes section of each slide that you would use if you were delivering your presentation to your fellow group of U.S.-based managers. Each content slide should contain 35 bullet points (no more than 1 sentence each), with additional details and explanation provided in the accompanying script.

Introduction

A critical component of the communication process, the sender is the source of the initial communication. As such, the burden is on the sender to initiate the process of communication and set the tone for how that communication will be sent and (often) received by the other party. Of particular importance in being an effective sender is possessing self-awareness. Understanding how you communicate, how you are perceived, and how you react to others can be a crucial part of having your messages received as you intended. Through these resources, you will further explore the importance of self-awareness to effective communication.

Knowing why you are communicating is as important as knowing what you want to express. In business, it is critical to know the purpose behind the information you share and how that information can help your team, or your organization, achieve its goals. Whether you want to expand peoples understanding of a particular topic, influence others in their decision making, share ideas, or provide your perspective about a situation, being clear in your purpose can help you to meet one of the main goals of communication: achieving understanding.

As you plan to communicate information to others, another critical component is knowing who will be receiving your message. In a business context, not only does that include knowing specific details about the other person (or people)such as their role(s) in the organizationbut also their level of current understanding, what more information they might need regarding the situation at hand, how the information might impact any decision making, and any other contextual information that can help you consider how they might receive the information being sent. Through these resources, you will examine considerations related to the audience for your communications.

Create a powerpoint presentation with speaker notes since I have to record a video presentation. Apply Paul & Elder’s critical thinking tools, Stroh’s four-stage change process and Stringer & Aragon’s Look-Think-Act action research model to an existing problem of practice in your organization. Describe the components of systems thinking, the four-stage change process and the Look-Think-Act action research process to a chosen audience in your organization. Explain how these concepts can create opportunities for improvement within the organization. Create questions to encourage audience members engage in collaborative dialogue to identify how the information presented would address the problem of practice and create positive organizational change. Identifying appropriate strategic priorities requires a firm understanding of an organization’s political landscape. Knowing the key players and how to leverage relationships will help you develop a strategic plan that is meaningful to all stakeholders. Gaining stakeholder buy-in is the key to success when attempting to meet the strategic goals outlined on a balanced scorecard. This assessment provides an opportunity for you to gain insight into organizational power structures and their effects on organizational culture, policies, and communications. For this assessment, you will identify a problem of practice in your organization and then explain how Elder & Paul’s critical thinking tools, Stroh’s four-stage change process, and Stringer & Aragon’s ‘Look-Think-Act’ action research model could be used to address this challenge. At the end of the presentation, you will ask several questions of your audience to promote greater understanding of how each of these concepts might apply to their organization. Collaborating in Action Research Action research can be a collaborative approach to inquiry that provides a means of systematic action required to resolve problems of practice. Effective leaders use these questions to ensure ongoing systematic and collaborative inquiry: How do organizations use research to gather and record data in ways that extend organizational learning and communication? How do organizations employ interpretive processes to understand data and analyze the way the data reveals organizational features and patterns? How do learning organizations use research to plan and implement practical solutions to problems? Paul and Elder’s Critical Thinking Tools Read the following to learn how to improve all three components of thinking: analysis, evaluation, and rethinking. As you continue to read and reflect on this text, youll become more proficient at analyzing your own thought processes and better understanding where you stand in the hierarchy of effective critical thinking. Paul, R., & Elder, L. (2012). Critical thinking: Tools for taking charge of your learning and your life (3rd ed.). Rowman & Littlefield Publishing.Chapter 3, “Self-Understanding,” on pages 4555. Stroh’s Four-Stage Change Process These readings will help you develop an understanding of the four-stage change process that leaders can use to strategically to facilitate long-term organizational change. This begins in Stage 1 by building a foundation that includes engaging key stakeholders by establishing common ground and building collective capacities. In Stage 2, stakeholders are encouraged to face the current reality by understanding what is happening and their own role in constructing the current reality. Stage 3 focuses on helping stakeholders make an explicit choice about what they collectively want, and Stage 4 is intended to help stakeholders bridge the gap between their ultimate aspirations and the current reality. Consider how attending to each of these stages can help you become more sensitive to your own organizational dynamics when leading change and innovation. Stroh, D. P. (2015). Systems thinking for social change: A practical guide to solving complex problems, avoiding unintended consequences, and achieving lasting results. Chelsea Green Publishing. Introduction. Chapter 1, Why Good Intentions Are Not Enough. Chapter 5, “An Overview of the Four-Stage Change Process,” pages 7178. Chapter 6, “Building a Foundation for Change,” pages 7090. Chapter 7, “Facing Current Reality: Building Understanding Through Systems Mapping,” pages 91122. Stringer and Aragon’s Look-Think-Act Action Research Model Unlike experimental or quantitative research that looks for generalizable explanations related to a small number of variables, action research seeks to engage the complex dynamics involved in any social context. It uses continuing cycles of investigation designed to reveal effective solutions to issues and problems experienced in organizations. The following materials explain how action research can be a collaborative approach to inquiry that provides a means of systematic action required to resolve problems of practice. Focus on the components of these steps in the action research process: look (to gather relevant information and describe the situation), think (to explore, analyze, interpret, and explain), and act (to plan a course of action based on analysis and implement a solution).

This is my Capstone Project for my masters in Professional Leadership. I have uploaded the empirical data i have collected at the university I work and am a student at, my project description proposal, and a list of sources I enjoy. Here is the basic assingment requirements: Because of the range of approaches possible for Professional Projects in the Master of Professional Studies, defining minimum standards for project papers is difficult.
