Six Leadership Practices. The six leadership practices include distilling vision, establishing fears and doubts, developing intuition, inspiration, systematic thinking, courageous dialogue, and intelligent life`s purpose (Anderson, Adams, & Adams, 2015). Above all of them, it would be useful to institutionalize instilling of vision. This is because every organization started as an idea to solve a societal problem. As such, the organization has a vision of issues to implement, and the vision has short-term objectives and long-term objectives. It is the vision that determines the operations and the number of efforts that an organization needs to inject to achieve such a vision. Per se, if the vision is not instilled in employees, the organization can be operating on losses. When the vision is instilled to employees, the organizational culture and socialization of the firm would be directed towards achieving such a vision. Recruitments, reward system, and employee retention would be on the ability of the employees to deliver on the vision. It is also important to mention that instilling vision to the organization includes addressing the value system of employees.
The specific changes to make concerning such a practice is to establish a recruitment formula that would be able to align the vision and the values relevant to the organization. Hence, from the onset of recruiting a new employee, only one with similar values would be employed and training to be aligned at values, and instilling vision.
