Description

Whether or not a leader is able to demonstrate effective leadership will determine the future direction of any organization and affect whether it succeeds or fails. Therefore, leadership development (ways to train leaders to demonstrate effective leadership) has been an important focus of research. However, leadership development has never before been approached from an integrated viewpoint that takes into account the entire process of an organization's leadership training. This has resulted in unsatisfactory methods of leadership training. Based on Ken Wilber's AQAL model, this study proposes an integral model of leadership development. AQAL stands for “all quadrants, all levels, all lines, all states, all types." Prior research on leadership development failed to make clear distinctions between quadrants, lines, progress levels, states, and types, thereby limiting itself to individual factors and conducting simplistic analyses. Assume that the purpose of leadership development is to increase leadership skills. Without sufficient analysis of the skill levels of leaders and members of an organization, there can be no integrated analysis that covers the states, levels, and types of the leaders, subordinates, or the rest of the organization. To effectively train leaders, it is necessary to provide a program that accurately identifies current states, skills, and levels, and that can achieve the desired states and levels. Accordingly, an integral model establishes a direction for effective development and practice, maintains a balance between various factors in various quadrants, and integrates them as a whole. Effective leadership development creates awareness and ways of thinking in leaders, and builds the organizational culture and landscape in a manner that will support them; this can be made possible by initiatives (skill development programs) that integrate various factors across all quadrants. Essentially, this can be made possible by putting into practice an integrated initiative that takes into account the entire process of leadership training, including an organization's management and HR development strategies.
