Leadership Theories: Toward a Relational Model

Introduction Within the context of my Ph.D. dissertation, I am interested in (1) the impact of superiors' management skills and subordinates' working skills on the building of their (hierarchical) relationship and (2) the impact this hierarchical relationship has upon the mental health of workers (i.e. both superiors and subordinates). Research to date has revealed the potentially negative cons...

Relational Leadership Theory: Exploring the social processes of leadership and organizing

Relational leadership is a relatively new term in the leadership literature, and because of this, its meaning is open to interpretation. In the present article I describe two perspectives of relational leadership: an entity perspective that focuses on identifying attributes of individuals as they engage in interpersonal relationships, and a relational perspective that views leadership as a proc...

Properties of approximate Parks-McClellan filters

It has been observed empirically that each coe cient in a Parks-McClellan lter converges to a steady state value as the lter length increases. This suggests the possibility of obtaining lters that are near optimal while "re-using" lter coe cients from shorter lters in the design of longer lters. In the context of approximate processing this then allows a ltering operation to be done in stages. ...

3-D depth migration via McClellan transformations

Three-dimensional seismic wavefields may be extrapolated in depth, one frequency at a time by two-dimensional convolution with a circularly symmetric, frequencyand velocity-dependent filter. This depth extrapolation, performed for each frequency independently, lies at the heart of 3-D finite-difference depth migration. The computational efficiency of 3-D depth migration depends directly on the ...
