Adaptive Leadership: Case Study
Redskins No More
What change were the people in Gooding trying to avoid? Why do you think they wanted to avoid this change? What tactics did they use to resist change?
Change the name of the high school team
(Redskins) They had developed a culture around the issue. One place continued to sell Redskin shirts for the team despite the name change.
tactic to resist change was the recall
People didn't want to have their identity changed. Ingroup-Outgroup dynamics when using power to discredit or dismiss legitimacy of needed chage
community culture
They didn't want to change the name
attachment to identity
They wanted to avoid the change because it was a symbol for them. Some had an identity connected to the name.
Change HS team name. It had history for the community. Tactics they used were saying it wasn't meant to be offensive, it honored Natives, and outsiders that were against the name weren't from Gooding.
What group would you describe as the “low-status group”? How did the school board seek to give voice to this group?
2.Would you describe the efforts of Scott Rogers or the school adaptive leadership? Why or why not?
They voted to change the name were removed
Students and youth are more open to adapt. Old schoolers did not.
Yes because each group (for and against) were listening to the community and took action to change or took action to return to the original name.
He was adaptive to the changing times
Yes, the school did. They took a chance to change.
Some adults attempted
How would you describe the holding environment created by the school board? Do you think it was successful? Why or why not?
It made it difficult to change
The holding environment can be used as an excuse.
It made it look like it was out of their hands, so it was defacto leadership
They may not have framed it well and then aggressively changed it - understanding there were multiple parties
Citing examples, describe how the school board engaged or didn’t engage in each of these adaptive leader behaviors: (1) get on the balcony, (2) maintain disciplined attention, and (3) give the work back to people.
The children seemed excited to change the name
The supe could have held more townhalls
to some extent they lost focus
gave work back to the people with allowing the students to have a say/input in the process.
They were creative
3 - they gave the work to the constituents
Their lack of unity on the board sent a divisive message
I agree
2/5 did not initially get on the balcony
