Week 1: Sociopolitical Skills
Organizational structure, norms, values,
culture, etc., all have an impact on a leader’s success. Consider the new or
advancing leader. Such a leader is expected to learn how to effectively perform
all of the important administrative and professional/technical tasks. In
addition, the leader needs to master the necessary social skills associated
with early effectiveness in the new position. Below are 10 “sociopolitical”
categories which may influence a transitioning leader’s early (and enduring)
effectiveness. These include, in no particular order, the ability to:
- enter into an established leader/employee “network.”
- sense, as well as use, appropriate communication;
influence behaviors.
- sense and appropriately act on keen organizational
norms.
- become aware of, and sensitively interact with,
organizational “blockers” and “enablers.”
- build political bridges by identifying and relating to
key formal/informal power sources.
- become known as a “go-to/can-do” individual.
- be perceived as a “team player.”
- sense key organizational issues upon which to create
early vision, initiatives, and value.
- identify and appropriately respond to the requirements
of superiors/peers/subordinates.
- be perceived as having organizationally appropriate
ethics, values, and beliefs.
Please note that these are behavioral skill
categories, not actual behaviors. You likely use many of the actual behaviors
(such as “interpersonal communication”) within a category every day.
Remember, after you submit your answer each
week to the Discussion Question itself, you also need to respond to at least
two of your classmates’ posts.
(In total for this module’s Discussion Forum
you should have contributed at least two Discussion Question posts and four response
posts to your classmates.)
You must participate in BOTH Week 1 and Week 2
Discussions to get credit for each module’s Discussion.
Posting early each week will allow for more
opportunities for leading the discussions, making substantial contributions,
and engaging in meaningful and mutual discussions with others.
Does this list of “sociopolitical” skill
categories match your sense of what is most required to help ensure a leader’s
early success in a new role/position? What might you add or subtract to help
ensure the most effective transition into a new job?
Week 2: Sociopolitical Skills
Using the same scenario as Week 1 of this
Discussion, answer the question in bold below.
Remember, after you submit your answer each
week to the Discussion Question itself, you also need to respond to at least
two of your classmates’ posts.
(In total for this module’s Discussion Forum
you should have contributed at least two Discussion Question posts and four
response posts to your classmates.)
You must participate in BOTH Week 1 and Week 2
Discussions to get credit for each module’s Discussion.
Posting early each week will allow for more
opportunities for leading the discussions, making substantial contributions,
and engaging in meaningful and mutual discussions with others.
In your view, how important to your enduring
success in the job are your early efforts in a new leadership role? Presuming
you already have practiced some or all of the 10 items, how did you learn to do
so?
