Describe about the Recruiting Project Managers for Define Leadership.
Researchers Goleman, Boyatzis and McKee (2013) define leadership as the ‘art’ of providing such services or facilities to others (to the subordinates to be very specific), such that they receive the training, guidance and the tools that are essential for realizing their full potential. Such leadership processes are necessary for the completion of organizational projects.
The following sections of the report would provide an annotated bibliography of eight scholarly literatures that present discussions on various aspects of project team leadership. The concluding part of the report would be utilized for summarizing the information available from the said papers.
Omar Jibran Engineering Industries is one of the leading vendors of Injection moulded plastic component to automotive industry in Pakistan. The organization had a very well equipped production facility but relied on foreign companies for supply of moulds and tooling for production of parts. After conducting annual SWOT analysis the management of organization realises that an in-house mould manufacturing facility is crucial for the sustainable growth of organization. The in-house mould manufacturing plant will not only reduced time and cost for producing parts but it an opportunity to diversify the organization product range.
The initial project plan developed by Project Manager suggests that this project is expected to cost as much as 10 million US dollars and be completed within a span of 8 months. The plan also identify that a team of 25 people is required for completion of Project. The major issue faced by organization for accomplishment of this project is unamiability of suitably qualified local work force, to overcome the problem the organization developed an extensive training and retention plan for the team that worked on this project. The annotated bibliography provided in the following section has been conducted as a part of the research work undertaken for the project.
The founder president of Heasley and Partners, Ms. Kathy Heasley defines ‘leadership’ in the following words:
“”Leadership is being bold enough to have vision and humble enough to recognize achieving it will take the efforts of many people — people who are most fulfilled when they share their gifts and talents, rather than just work.
