Leading Effectively e-Newsletter

August 17th, 2009

The Center for Creative Leadership puts together a nice e-Newsletter each months that you can find here. More interesting perhaps is that they have a Google gadget so you can place it on your iGoogle homepage. Pretty cool! – Scott J. Allen

Interesting…

Leadership development at NSULA seems to take on a different flavor (literally). I would love to know how this activity is debriefed! – Scott J. Allen

Bad Leadership

July 3rd, 2009

Barbara Kellerman, author of Bad Leadership needs to add a new category.

Cheaters.

This is an interesting (and unfortunate) compilation of leaders who have cheated and in the process lost the trust of constituents, and undermined their ability to effectively lead.

“I don’t want to blow up my time in politics,” he told the AP. “I don’t want to blow up future earning power, I don’t want to blow up the kids’ lives. I don’t want to blow up 20 years that we’ve invested. But if I’m completely honest, there are still feelings in the way. If we keep pushing it this way, we get those to die off, but they’re still there and they’re still real.”

Journal of Leadership Education

June 8th, 2009

We are excited to announce the publication of the special issue of the Journal of Leadership Education (JOLE) highlighting current issues and challenges in the field of leadership education.

You can access the full issue from the link in the middle of the editor’s introduction:

http://www.fhsu.edu/jole/issues/current.html

or the full PDF at the following:

http://www.fhsu.edu/jole/issues/JOLE_8_1.pdf

The issue highlights challenges in theoretical foundations of leadership education, evaluation and assessment, curriculum and pedagogy, and faculty development.

The issue also includes three invited papers addressing what we felt were some of the most current and relevant issues in the field: the distinction between leadership skill development and leadership personal development (Barry Posner), the challenge of identifying and aligning educational activities to this development (Susan Komives and her colleagues), and efforts to put a consistent framework on leadership education activities and programs (the Guidelines for Leadership Education Programs reported by Stephen Ritch and Thomas Mengel).

We hope this special issue will serve as a catalyst for future research and practice, and enable leadership educators to better meet the needs of their students and the organizations and communities they seek to lead.

Sincerely,

Tony Middlebrooks and Scott J. Allen
