Characteristics of New World Leadership Technology Technology defines the next generation of organization architectures and leadership opportunities Organizations shifted from vertically structured hierarchies to globally distributed, networked organization models
Leadership & Technology • What are the next trends and their implications for leaders and organizations? • Leaders rely on real-time sense making, pattern recognition and framing skills to create context for others
Need for wisdom Leadership • Wisdom is the “deep understanding and sound judgment” that draws from a level of personal and organizational values, and cultural broad-mindedness. • It requires level of wisdom to proactively address pressing issues that characterize our world in the 21st century
Knowledge and Information • Knowledge is a new type of resource, more like a flame than an object. • With a flame, we can light a thousand candles so they all have flames, including the original. • In the same way, knowledge is expandable, transportable, and shareable
Complexity Vs Complication • In complexity, there's probably a lot going on, like cause and effect stuff, and lots of relevant details • In complication, there's always a lot going on, and lots of bits that might or might not connect to other bits, be connected at sometimes • There may be cause and effect, but not sure which is which; lots of details, but they're hard to pin down
Time versus Real Time • Each of us has such a bank. Its name is TIME • Every morning, it credits us with 86,400 seconds • Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this we have failed to invest to good purpose • It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft • Each day it opens a new account for us • If we fail to use the day’s deposits, the loss is ours.
Time Vs Real Time • No drawing against “tomorrow” • Clock is running • Make the most of today • To realize the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who failed a grade • To realize value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who gave birth to a pre-mature baby • To realize value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper
Time Vs Real Time • To realize value of ONE HOUR, ask lovers who are waiting to meet • To realize value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who missed the train • To realize value of ONE SECOND, ask a person who just avoided an accident • To realize value of ONE MILLI -SECOND, ask person who won a silver medal in Olympics • Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is mystery, Today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the present
Data Vs Information • Data is raw material & unorganized facts that need to be processed • When data are processed, organized, structured or presented in a given context so as to make them useful, they are called Information
Market Place & Market Space • Assessing the impact of external events on our market space • Market place encompasses market space as well as broader forces – such as adjacent industries, political events, world issues, and broader economic climate
Linkages & Connectivity • Linkages is a technique for depicting complex systems of relationships between multiple variables • This is useful for example if need to see how human capital management relates to various dimensions of business performance
Speed and Acceleration • The leader should set the tone • Speed of the Leader is Speed of the Team • Don’t expect your team to give or fight or sacrifice or Love or Forgive or Stay focused more than you are
Convergence • Convergence is the tendency for different systems to evolve towards performing similar tasks • Charismatic leadership • Leading and not managing • A Leader's Mood: The Dimmer Switch of Performance
Why organizational Change? • Wealth or Worth • Wealth is accumulation of material goods and money, but having wealth (which has a monetary "worth") doesn't mean that the person with the wealth has worth
