In contemporary times, creativity and autonomy are valued for most industries. It is revealed that employee autonomy and independence could provide companies with economic benefits in terms of innovation (Burcharth, Knudsen & Sondergaard, 2017) ]]> 2021-03-29 07:38:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363148931 ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363171522 Plenty of qualities are required for an outstanding transformational leader. I would like to focus on two of them and elaborate my action plan to achieve them. In order to create an atmosphere of creativity, I would focus on motivating employees and boosting the morale of the whole team. Employees are the blood of a company, the activation of whom could make the organization more prosperous. The general atmosphere could, in turn, influence the state of employees and shape the organizational image. A company of high morale tend to be more productive and creative. ]]> 2021-03-29 07:49:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363171522 Motivating followers ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363176463 Initially, motivating followers is supposed to be based on their own personalities, needs and wants, and strengths and weaknesses. This is in line with the contingency approach, which indicates that different leadership styles are supposed to be altered according to different situations or subjects (Daft, 2014). ]]> 2021-03-29 07:51:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363176463 ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363178558  I will first have a better understanding of the followers through observation and communication. If necessary, a survey could be conducted in order to know their preference for leadership styles and their working environment. In order to reward them in a satisfactory form, employees will be provided several choices to determine the one that fits them best and they are also welcome to add other items. What’s more, their strengths and weaknesses are closely related to their job performance. It is quite important to match their strengths with according tasks, and avoid assigning someone to do what he or she is not good at. The strengths and weaknesses could be elicited from talks, observations and surveys.  ]]> 2021-03-29 07:52:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363178558 Assign responsibilities ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363179959 Another way to motivate followers is to assign them not only obligations, but also responsibilities, which could be achieved by endowing them with decision-making rights. In some traditional organizations, employees are rarely motivated because they keep doing what they are assigned to do with less sense of achievement. It is reflected that most employees, if not all of them, want to gain a sense of accomplishment, based on which they could feel like they are progressing in the workplace (Perbox, 2021). ]]> 2021-03-29 07:53:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363179959 Organization atmosphere ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363186761 In addition to motivate employees, the general atmosphere of an organization is also crucial. As I aim to cultivate creativity, frequent communication among departments and harmonious interpersonal relationship should be given priorities. First, it is common that employees may discuss, or even complain about some concerns. However, these concerns would not be heard by leaders and they could not be improved or solved. With time going, these factors could have a negative impact on both employees and the organization. I would hold various casual activities to establish interpersonal relationships beyond work and express my concerns first, which could shorten the distance between leaders and followers. In addition, anonymous surveys could also be adopted cyclically to gather employees’ concerns about the company. ]]> 2021-03-29 07:56:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363186761 Preparation ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363189585 2021-03-29 07:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363189585 Presentation ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363193176 2021-03-29 07:59:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363193176 ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363205162 2021-03-29 08:01:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363205162 A transformational leader ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363208963 2021-03-29 08:03:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363208963 Team member motivation ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363209335 2021-03-29 08:03:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363209335 Action Plan ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363209917 2021-03-29 08:03:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363209917 Transformational Leadership in the Enterprise ruize1xia https://padlet.com/ruize1xia/93wwl3g1omne7xwr/wish/1363218867 Rachel Hornay
