LEADING

Motivation
(Chapter 14)
​From a SET perspective, organizational members are motivated to accomplish something significant (e.g., enhanced social and ecological well-being), to treat stakeholders justly, to experience and contribute to community, and to use power to serve others. 
​Are you more motivated by materialistic and individualistic impulses, or by a desire to work in ways that serve the common good?

Leadership
(Chapter 15)
A SET approach promotes shared leadership and task-oriented behaviors that develop structures and systems that optimize socio-ecological externalities associated with the production of the organization’s goods and services), relationship-oriented behaviors that nurture a sense of community, belongingness, and meaning), and change-oriented behaviors that anticipate and serve stakeholder needs. 
​What are the core characteristics that make a great leader truly great?

Groups & Teams
(Chapter 16)
​According to SET management, teams can be seen to develop in four phases, starting with forming (where managers focus on developing social cohesion and how the team boundaries fit with other stakeholders), then storming (where managers welcome differing views in order to develop mutual understanding), then norming (where information is shared freely), and finally performing as a collective team. 
​Even people who prefer to work independently are often required to work as part of a team; how can team dynamics be managed to bring out the best in members?

Communication
(Chapter 17)
From a SET perspective, managers should develop messages that promote multiple forms of well-being, encode and decode their messages in ways that respect and embrace the diversity of other stakeholders and promote an ethic of case, and recognize that communication is based upon and part of an ongoing process of building relationships. 
​What gets lost when managers focus on the instrumental aspects of communication?
