Learn to be a effetive employee rather than a leader
I would like to raise my voice here from the beginning of the LE module. When we step into the society, everyone will begin with a work from the bottom level of an organization, therefore to the pragmatism point of view, to understand how to be an ¡°effective employee¡± to help the company success, learn how to deal with different kinds of managers and leaders, and how can be promoted faster within the company are seems to more important and realistic for a student without any working experience. I think if we have a module based on those topics, it will look more attractive and helpful for our future. Nevertheless, leadership module and studying on the theories of leadership has told us many things. During the present stage, it at least helps us realize different features of leadership, thus able to choose the right person to follow with, in order to extend the maximum potential through the career. And in the later stage, when we get promoted in the company, it provides a good theory background for being a good leader if we combine our later experiences.

Hi Apollo, hope you’re well. I’ve just posted a blog on leadership which I think captures your point. i really like the idea of understanding how to be a an effective employee, I wish i’d read this as I would have mentioned it. Perhaps too much emphasis is placed on ‘leadership’ per se when the ultimale role of the leader (in business) is to create the environment to get the very best from its employees. There also has to be an element of self awareness from the employee i.e. they must want to be effective (thinking Theory X & Y).
I’ve just started reading two books The 5th Discipline – Senge; and Emotional Intelligence – Goleman. Both extremely interesting…
