Obviously lots of discussion about GM's mgt skills and his future at the club etc, on these threads, but on the mgt issue what's your view on GM as a leader?
I appreciate that he was only appointed last February as coach and some will argue that he needs more time but has he got the minerals to become an effective leader? One thing for sure is that his leadership skills are being tested to the max and he is on a very steep learning curve!
Anyone seen the top 50 managers in the world list by Fourfourtwo? The one thing they say makes a top mgr is that they all have the ability to lead.
There is no doubt that a leader's personal management style can help or hinder a team's growth and success, and unfortunately right now it seems very much the latter.
Is GM a good enough Collaborator and is he able to make effective decisions and build the necessary support amongst his team and get us out of the shit?
"Collaborators are leaders who are good at assembling team members, have something to contribute, and work with the team in such an interactive way that everyone contributes and buys in to the decision,"
I found this online , it's an interesting view on leadership:
"At its core, leadership is about making key decisions and guiding the team to act on them. People in management positions can take various approaches to this task, and their personal leadership styles will determine if their teams and organizations will benefit or suffer".
Leaders are responsible for improving the performance of organizations and "Two significant components of [a leader's] decisions are the quality of the decision and the level of buy-in associated with it. Effective leaders want them both."
How would you describe GM's management style?
My view is that it seems as though his style is of a competitor nature and that he would rather do everything his own way.
This style of leadership means they often have good ideas, but when they're challenged by their teams through resistance or a lack of support, it minimizes or eliminates the benefit of these ideas. Competitors push their team for ideas to the point of frustration, which can lead to an effective decision but little buy-in from employees.
"Settling for less than collaboration is a business decision – and often not a very good one!
Let's make this shit happen!!!!!
Come on the swans !!!!!!! JACK ARMY!!!!!!!!!
