Based on your research of Tannenbaum and Schmidt’s (1975) Leadership Style Continuum, in a two-page paper (single-spaced), develop rationale using Cameron and Quinn’s (1999) Competing Values Framework Model to explain how you would establish cultural effectiveness in an organization. Your rationale should consist of the following:
(1) what type of leader you are (e.g., boss-centered or subordinate-centered)(2) to what degree are you rigid (mechanistic) or flexible (organic)and (3) which value composition (e.g., Clan, Adhocracy, Market, and Hierarchy) would you adopt to establish culture norms. Use cultural antecedents from recognizable organizations (i.e., Google, Apple, Amazon, Disney) to demonstrate your ability to apply cultural values to practical usage of those beliefs. For example, p. 111 describes the dichotomous cultural profile of Amazon who blend value attributes (high Adhocracy and high Hierarchy) to facilitate organizational effectiveness.
