Research In Creative Management Styles : A 60 page research-oriented
paper discussing creative management styles. There are organizations that have not been
able to make the transition from the traditional autocratic or authoritarian (rather than
the authoritative) style of management. Today, creative management styles come in a
variety of names: situational contingency management, the transformational approach, the
cultural contingency approach, and value-based leadership. All, however, have their roots
in TQM. Organizations that could not be successful in implementing TQM generally are not
successful in implementing any of these, either, because all, including TQM, require a
corporate culture that supports creativity and a commitment to change, and values open
communication between workers and departments to the point that they will defend it if
necessary. This paper examines the underlying problems preventing the formation and
nurturing of that corporate culture so necessary for sustaining any creative management
style. Bibliography lists more than 50 sources. M-Creatv.doc
