ADAPTIVE LEADERSHIP FOR TURBULENT TIMES: HARNESSING THE POWER OF INTERLEADERSHIP IN CRISIS AND NORMALCY

Abstract

In an ever-evolving world, human existence is characterized by dynamic shifts rather than static stability. These transformations in societal structures and lifestyles have been met with mixed reactions, sometimes perceived as positive advancements and at other times deemed negative disruptions. The continuous comparison of generational changes serves as a measure of progress, leading to conclusions about the most beneficial eras of transformation. Central to this phenomenon is the concept of socialization, where the prevailing knowledge and information shape cognitive frameworks, event analyses, and the utilization of opportunities. Development, a fundamental facet of progress, is intricately intertwined with transformation, as change catalyzes improved living standards. However, it is imperative to acknowledge that not all transformations lead to development, as ill-suited adaptations can yield adverse outcomes. A transformation, for its essence to be truly impactful, necessitates recognition and drives positive change within a community. This transformative impetus often instills apprehension within organizations, as the potential ramifications on their structure and operations evoke fear of obsolescence and collapse. While change is acknowledged as challenging, its execution is not insurmountable. Effective leadership, armed with pertinent skills and adept organizational acumen, assumes a pivotal role in mobilizing stakeholders and navigating transformational phases. Drawing insights from the Information Technology (IT) sector, characterized by monumental shifts from traditional typewriters to intricate software systems, the exigency of Information Communication Technology (ICT)-oriented personnel is evident for expedited operations. The intrinsic debate surrounding the necessity of change for growth and its concomitant accomplishments paves the way for a nuanced understanding of transformation's requisites. Contextual considerations, encompassing organizational ethos, objectives, and intrinsic nature, dictate the aptitude for change. The cautionary sentiment arises from the potential for complete transformation to erode an organization's identity. Within this spectrum, leaders have a triad of change strategies at their disposal: developmental, transitional, and transformational. The choice of strategy hinges on aligning organizational attributes with the desired outcomes, as an improper selection can yield detrimental consequences. This study aspires to delineate an efficacious leadership approach suitable for crises and routine operations alike. By amalgamating facets from fourteen distinct leadership styles, an evidence-based framework is conceived to facilitate informed decision-making during emergencies. Destructive leadership tendencies are juxtaposed with the identified strengths of these styles, culminating in the novel Interleadership style. The objective is to propose a universal leadership model for educational and organizational leaders, tailor-made for exigencies, crises, and pandemics. The resultant Interleadership style, though not bereft of challenges, emerges as an optimal tool to navigate tumultuous waters with its amalgamation of diverse leadership attributes.
