Leadership Seminar: One Dimensional Leadership
This article will discuss the concept of reviewing leadership from a perspective that is a typical. When speaking about leadership; one needs to assess the common denominators associated with the perceptions of leadership and how they impact outcomes. Therefore, addressing issues of styles and leadership behavior models that drive people that drive organizations that drive outcomes. The question is often asked in people, businesses or organizations is one dimensional leadership good or bad? Is it productive or is counterproductive?
Let's take a look at what some have said about one dimensional leadership. It has been noted by some that one dimensional leadership has to do with control and one's perception of how much control one should give to people. If one dimensional management practices is about controls and/or influences then a lengthy discussion could take place about the positive or perhaps the negative influences of leadership as it pertains to one dimensional leadership. How could one dimensional leadership be practiced and when is it best to use such a leadership style. Would a leader get the best practices from one dimensional leadership or would such a leader be accused of being autocratic or perhaps dictatorial.
One would ask the question is there room for discussion or does the door get slammed in front of one face in effort to convey an organizational recommendation leaving no room for participative talks. Leaders are always looking for the appropriate method to utilize their desired model of leadership style. There is something to be said about one dimensional leadership. In my view during a crises situation I could envision a one dimensional concept of incorporating the variable of one dimensional management style. During a crisis there is very little time to stop and form a committee and have an open casual democratic approach and laying out a plan of action. Decisions need to be made swiftly, courageously and boldly. One quite honestly needs to have a one dimensional focus in quickly seeking resolve to a particular situation and act immediately. Though not amongst the most popular in leadership style there could be room for one dimensional leadership as there are times when people want to be lead on to victory or accomplishment and one dimensional leadership could be the prime candidate for a fruitful outcome.
