Building Organizational Leadership: Leadership through Learning and Effective Organizational Development Interventions

By Chaitanya Niphadkar

It's imperative for organizations to establish and maintain a competitive advantage and Dr Niphadkar argues that it is 'Learning' that not only enables them to sustain that winning edge but also allows them to progress in a fast, creative, innovative and flexible way. He focuses on establishing transformational thought leadership by discovering contemporary ways of learning to resolve today's organizational challenges. A Learning Organization is one that successfully takes the lead in business, effectively manages change and safeguards its future with a robust development plan. Learning can be utilised as an effective tool to increase organizational performance and can also enhance the organization's capability to plan for its future by creating a smarter workforce or as the author terms them 'Champ Performers' (CP). The author has taken the thinking performer concept to a higher level, thus making an original contribution to the literature on knowledge management and outlining the Organizational Development (OD) interventions that are necessary for sustainable growth. Furthermore, he explains how proper micro level interactions can bring about large scale systemic change on a macro level. Transitioning this material to management learning, Dr Niphadkar justifies how an organization can effectively withstand pressure and adapt to market fluctuations and foster the importance of Leadership Development Programmes (LDP) that serve to transform the quality of work throughout the organization.
