Guidance (from professor)
A Complete Paradigm Shift (Leadership and Power)
I peruse YouTube frequently and look for business related topics and discussions. I happened to come across this particular video a while back and really thought it should be the focal point of my last guidance for our class.
I believe that in today’s business environment, corporations and leaders need to rethink their business approaches, models, theories and strategies. Leaders are currently operating under a paradigm of what is in it for me syndrome and focused on short term profits and returns for stakeholders. This business model is leader driven and places no real true value on employees outside of being used and abused to accomplish business objectives.
Fortunately we are now starting to see a major shift from operating under this type of business strategy and leadership perspective into a new paradigm now focused on a mission driven and value based philosophy. This new concept is focused on what is best for the world rather than the organization at that moment in time. Also, the traditional leader-follower business model is being torn down and reestablished.
