Conceptualizing Global Leadership From Multiple Perspectives: An Analysis of Behavioral Ratings

Three presentations are provided from Symposium 15, Management Development, of the Academy of Human Resource Development (HRD) 2000 Conference Proceedings. "Conceptualizing Global Leadership from Multiple Perspectives: An Analysis of Behavioral Ratings" (Allan H. Church) examines the underlying nature of global leadership behavior using multi-rater feedback data from senior managers, direct reports, peers, and supervisors of a large global automotive industry organization. Its findings suggest the importance of a systemic learning orientation and show non-standard' differences by rater type. "Comparing Managerial Careers, Management Development and Management Education in the United Kingdom with the United States: Some Theoretical and Practical Implications" (Graeme Martin, Mark Butler) addresses three lines of questioning: the new rhetoric of careers in the new economy, evidence on changing organizational forms and implications for careers and management development and education, and the future of management education and role of business schools. "The Impact of Facilitative Leadership: Multi-Rater Measurement of Behavioral Outcomes" (Valerie L. Weisman) reveals these study outcomes: perceived facilitative behaviors are critical in best practices of leaders; performance outcomes of leaders and members are linked; multi-rater feedback measures are important; and the facilitative managerial-leadership model is very effective in harnessing resources and human capital to meet business challenge.
