Description
This is a presentation highlights on the SOAR and VTR models of leadership.
Definition: ? The activity of influencing people to strive willingly for group activities. ? Also defined as ‘interpersonal influence exercised in a situation and directed, through the communication process, towards the attainment of a specialized goal or goals’. ? Leadership is also influencing people to follow in the achievement of a common goal. ? The process is a function of the leader, the follower and other situational variables:
Organizational Leadership is placed into a broad context, by introducing two powerful models:
1. 2.
The SOAR Peak Performance model and The Vision to Results (VTR) model. Each model offers a different perspective.
‘Leadership is making what you believe in . . . . . . . . . . happen’ The SOAR Peak Performance Model suggests that an interaction between the Situation and the Organization leads to Activities that ultimately lead to Results. S ?----------? O ------------? A ---------? R Situation Organization Activities Results
? If
an org has to SOAR to peak performance, the leader, as an integral part of the solution must influence the orgs activities to achieve results. ? So ‘L’ is added to the model to represent the Leader. ? The Leader’s influence potential is represented in this model by an equal sign to illustrate the increasingly indirect powers of leaders. ? The leader however, is but one of the myriad (numerous) forces influencing the organization.

?
From an external perspective, the organization is also affected by political, economic, social, technological and environmental forces in the remote environment. A leader’s ‘magnetic’ personality is not enough; something more is needed to pull the org towards results and this is the role of Vision as depicted by the letter ‘V’ in the figure shown on the next slide. A leader’s influencing push is not enough to achieve results; the pull of a powerful, impelling vision is required.

It is important to look at achieving results from a strategic perspective. The key pattern words for success are:
? ? ? ?
Vision. Change. Implementation. Results.
These four words are integral to the ‘Vision to Results’ model developed above. Each of these characteristics is combined in a process -oriented model composed of these key components.
