The article reveals the requirements for a modern specialist, who should be characterized by the properties and qualities of adaptive leadership. The reasons are noted for the improper formation of this phenomenon of future specialists in higher educational institutions of Kazakhstan. As one of the most important, it is considered - the unavailability of a higher education teacher to carry out activities to educate future specialists of the properties and qualities of adaptive leadership. Attention is drawn to the fact that the development of adaptive leadership qualities in the context of the traditional informational subject (linear) training system is impossible. Attention is focused on the fact that, in the conditions of the challenges of the XXI century, being an adaptive leader is the norm for a modern specialist. The author reveals the role and significance of the synergetic approach in the formation of adaptive leadership among students.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to explore which factors motivate doctors to engage in leadership roles and to frame an inquiry of self-assessment within Self-Determination Theory (SDT) to identify the extent to which a group of occupational health physicians (OHPs) was able to self-determine their leadership needs, using a National Health Service (NHS) England competency approach promoted by the NHS England Leadership Academy as a self-assessment leadership diagnostic. Medical leadership is seen as crucial to the transformation of health-care services, yet leadership programmes are often designed with a top-down and centrally commissioned “one-size-fits-all” approach. In the UK, the Smith Review (2015) concluded that more decentralised and locally designed leadership development programmes were needed to meet the health-care challenges of the future. However, there is an absence of empirical research to inform the design of effective strategies that will engage and motivate doctors to take up leadership roles, while at the same time, health-care organisations continue to develop formal leadership roles as a way to secure medical leadership engagement. The problem is further compounded by a lack of validated leadership qualities assessment instruments which support researching this problem. Design/Methodology/approach The analysis draws on a sample of about 25 per cent of the total population size of the Faculty of Occupational Medicine (n = 1,000). The questionnaire used was the Leadership Qualities Framework tool as a form of online self-assessment (NHS Leadership Academy, 2012). The data were analysed using descriptive statistics and simple inferential methods. Findings OHPs are open about reporting their leadership strengths and leadership development needs and recognise leadership learning as an ongoing development need regardless of their level of personal competence. This study found that the single most important factor to affect a doctor’s confidence in leadership is their experience in a management role. In multivariate regression, management experience accounted for the usefulness of leadership training, suggesting that doctors learn best through applied “leadership learning” as opposed to theory-driven programmes. Drawing on SDT (Deci and Ryan, 1985; 2000; Ryan and Deci, 2000), this article provides a theoretical framework that helps to understand those doctors who are likely to engage in leadership and management activities in the organisation. More choice and self-determination of medical leadership programmes are likely to result in more relevant leadership learning that builds on doctors’ previous experience in this area. Research limitations/implications While this study benefitted from a large sample size, it was limited to the use of purely quantitative methods. Future studies would benefit from the application of a mixed methodology to combine quantitative data with one-to-one interviews or a focus group. Practical implications This study suggests that doctors are able to determine their own learning needs reliably and that they are more likely to increase their confidence in leadership and management if they are exposed to leadership and management experience. Originality/value This is the first large-scale study of this kind with a large sample within a single medical specialty. The study is considered as insider research, as the first author is an OHP with knowledge of how to engage OHPs in this work.

Have you ever wondered that there’s a leader within you? On a daily basis we face situations that are outside the scope of our control but we are, most of the times, forced to deal with it. Sometimes there is no escape allowed and we knowingly or unknowingly display leadership qualities in our behaviour. Moreover, it is not wise to run away from situations but logical to face them boldly. In this sense, I believe that we are the leader of our actions. However, one cannot be simply termed as a leader unless one strives to develop the qualities. This article speaks about developing the leader in you. It makes us aware about the leadership development programmes and building leaders at the workplace.

The present content-analytic study of the memoir “In the Line of Fire” by Musharraf (2006) aimed at the exploration of the prevalent themes in the context of leadership practices of Musharraf especially with reference to post 9/11 scenarios. The main aim of the study was to explore the major leadership qualities of Musharraf through the content analysis of the memoir. After reading between the lines and with the help of the committee approach, 12 themes were derived to serve the purpose of thematic analysis from the leadership perspective. The autobiography comprised of six chapters. Each part was considered as a unit of analysis. Thus, the book was divided into six units. A 5-point rating scale was devised to enumerate the strength of each theme on the basis of their degree of intensity. The results through the enumeration system included the strength of each theme in each unit and the sum of all themes in all units. Themes were found in order of their correspondent strength in the memoir, (1) leadership during stress, (2) followers, (3) freewill versus determinism, (4) narcissism, (5) leadership ethics, (6) state of conflicts and conflict handling, (7) power and influence, (8) communication, (9) decision making, (10) motivation to lead, (11) leadership development through education, training, and experience, and (12) vision respectively. Validity of the study was maintained through the selection of the themes with the help of committee approach. Reliability of the scoring system was maintained through partial inter-rater reliability. Textual elaboration of themes was discussed. Keywords: Leadership, Vision, Decision Making, Power, Conflict Handling, Communication, Motivation.

This qualitative study explores the role of crucibles, life-triggering moments, parents’ life mottos and definitions of success, and holding values in the lives of authentic leaders. This research used the life-story approach to explore the experience of such concepts on authentic leaders. Self-identified leaders with more than five years of experience in a leadership position or in a role of managing and developing others were invited to this research. Qualified authentic leaders (between 65 to 80 in ALQ) were invited to a qualitative interview utilizing the life story approach to explore significant forming factors of their leadership qualities. An inductive coding method was used in analyzing the transcription of interviews. Significant themes and codes show that life-triggers, crucibles, parents’ life mottos, their definition of success, and holding values play a significant role in authentic leadership development. Leadership scholars should emphasize the forming experiences of authentic leadership in their leadership development studies. In other words, the experienced dynamics of parents (life mottos and definitions of success), the experience of crucibles are suggested as antecedents of authentic leadership. The research shows that parents’ dynamics, crucibles, and life-triggering moments resonate with Erikson’s stages of development on authentic leadership development.
