DID YOU KNOW? Each year, hundreds of small-scale fishers are killed due to collisions with bottom trawling rigs operated by massive corporations in West Africa alone #STOPBOTTOMTRAWLING#OUB329#b329leadershipchallenge @NickWOpenUni
#B329LeadershipChallenge: Bottom trawling is a destructive fishing method where nets are dragged along the ocean floor. This destroys habitats and is causing near extinction for some sea life. We must do better do better to protect our oceans. #STOPBOTTOMTRAWLING! @NickWOpenUni
@judah_sc@kristina_risley Nice to see you have already linked the leadership practices to your leadership challenge! I think choosing which route to go down is one of the hardest parts
#precarious workers often harness technology in their activist movements as it allows for inclusion, accessibility and speed of communications @B329Leadership
@_ana_canales@Clementdesouza Hi Ana, I found this part of the module material very insightful and I could see examples in both my own life and the media that fit with this theory
There are multiple ways people can show #resistance, ranging from more overt action such as strikes to more covert action such as mockery (Collinson and Ackroyd 2005) @B329Leadership
In week 15 of @B329Leadership I have considered the #complex relationship between leaders and followers when it comes to resistance, do you think a person can both?
@Oub329K Hi Kate, I found it interesting to look at the different categories of challenges in depth. I think we often put them into our own categories without even realising it
For the #B329LeadershipChallenge we need to focus on a #wicked issue. These issues require collaboration which is why I’m keen to work with others to tackle this task and get their insight @B329Leadership
Sustaining a #vision of #success (Crosby and Bryson 2005) can be an effective way of setting aims without being too rigid and leaving room for innovation @B329Leadership
In week 12 of @B329Leadership I have learnt how #gametheory can be applied to leadership practices, with positive sum outcomes meaning a good result for everyone. But does this put too much pressure on managers?
@CraigElliot17 Hi Craig, it’s interesting how you have managed to relate the rise in conflicts to external circumstances such as rising costs. Makes me think conflict resolution may be more pressing now than ever before!
Leaders often need to create an environment that fosters open and honest #constructive dissent if they want to push debates forward and foster innovation @B329Leadership
I learnt in week 11 of @B329Leadership how complex conflict resolution approaches within organisations can be, with leaders needing to mediate between many #conflicting stakeholder opinions
@ln3568 Really interesting how you identified that weakness in yourself from the module material. I think many leaders can find it hard to let go of the reigns, especially when working with new people where that trust hasn’t yet been built up #OUB329
