The writing of this book originated from a research project that the author began in 2004, namely "Research on Government Leadership and Government Responsibility", which later became the 2005 Hunan Provincial Social Science Foundation (05YB69) and the 2006 National Social Science Foundation (06BZZ021). I would like to know, what is the scientific meaning of leadership? What is the change in leadership thinking? Especially with the passing of "strongman politics", the charismatic heroic leadership model has declined, so as a government organization, what kind of leadership concept has been updated? What are the types and mechanisms of leadership behavior? How is its leadership expressed? Can and how can a leadership assessment model be constructed? What types of leadership behaviors and personalities should be appropriate in different organizational contexts to achieve high leadership effectiveness? How can we improve the leadership of government organizations to achieve their organizational vision? As we all know, the emergence of states, governments, and even modern organizations is a historical category, and by its very nature is an inevitable choice for human beings to pursue an orderly life. The emergence of these organizations will inevitably be accompanied by the emergence of organizational management and leadership behavior; Today, the role of organizations and their leadership behaviors is becoming increasingly important, both in societies in transition and in societies that have entered the post-industrial stage and formed a pluralistic structure. In terms of space, leadership behavior and leadership can occur in for-profit business organizations, non-profit community organizations, and public government organizations. According to leadership management theory, government is also an organization. In this book, the main discussion is the leadership behavior in government organizations with public attributes, as well as the leadership embodied in the process of individual and overall leadership behavior of individual and overall leaders, the leadership effectiveness to be achieved, and the leadership responsibility to be expressed. The research on leadership first began in the corporate field in the 80s of the 20th century in the West, and its research objects were individual leaders and managers; After the 90s, he expanded into the public domain and began to pay attention to the leadership of the organization as a whole and leading the management team; It was also at this time that the topic of leadership attracted the attention of Chinese academic circles. People think about the nature of leadership and its behavior from different perspectives, and define different connotations of leadership. Whether from an individual or an organizational point of view, leadership is actually a kind of influence, a core ability that exists in leadership behavior. At the same time, "leadership is hierarchical and requires constant breakthrough and improvement" (James Couzers, Leadership, p. VII). As a government organization, the existence or level of leadership depends on the behavior type, behavior mechanism and behavior environment of the government organization. At present, government leadership behavior can be designed as transformational leadership, coopetition leadership, service leadership, reliable leadership and shared leadership. Correspondingly, in order to give full play to the effectiveness of different types of government leadership behaviors, we must find their effectiveness points, that is, innovation points, win-win points, demand points, trust points and equilibrium points; And it is also necessary to ensure the effective entry of the corresponding five mechanisms, namely the innovation mechanism, the synergy mechanism, the responsibility mechanism, the credit mechanism and the harmony mechanism. Only in this way can the leadership of government organizations be enhanced, and their realistic goals and organizational vision can be achieved. Scientific assessment of government organizational leadership is relatively lacking and important. A comprehensive examination of a series of administrative plans, the implementation of administrative measures and the effectiveness achieved by a government organization in public management should follow the concept of "not paying too much attention to results, but also paying attention to the leadership process", and follow the principles of authenticity, satisfaction and persistence. To this end, the author constructs a scientific evaluation system for the leadership of government organizations, which combines the four paths of "politics, economy, society and culture" and the five orientations of innovation, collaboration, responsibility, credit and harmony from the horizontal and vertical dimensions, respectively, to form an all-round 360° index for evaluating the leadership of government organizations, which can be implemented by providing data, questionnaires and interviews and comprehensive analysis of experts by the government organizations themselves. In order to verify the reliability, validity and feasibility of the design scheme, the author selected five district-level government organizations in Furong District, Yuhua District, Yuelu District in Changsha City, Lusong District in Zhuzhou City, and Yuetang District in Xiangtan City and their citizens to conduct two sets of questionnaires and visits, and conducted empirical tests and analyses on the reliability, validity and feasibility of the evaluation system and indicators, which further improved the scientificity, operability and value of the research design. The Chinese government's leadership will face many challenges in their pursuit of strengthening the country and enriching the people in the current situation. The proposal of harmonious leadership and its corresponding requirements are actually a comprehensive navigation of the Chinese government leadership in the relationship between efficiency and fairness, development and stability, and co-construction and sharing during the period of social transformation. As the main subject of social governance, the government must follow the shift from individual leadership to public leadership, from the pursuit of public management efficiency to the pursuit of public leadership effectiveness, in order to assume political, economic, social, cultural and other responsibilities, and play an important leadership role in mobilizing social forces, improving internal management performance, and improving service levels.(AI翻译)
