“…Kurland et al (2010) found that high functioning schools had transformational administrators who fostered instructor empowerment to increase teacher involvement. The results from this study confirm previous literature that deans and department heads are allowing faculty the freedom to adapt curriculum to best suit the students' needs (Kalargyrou & Woods, 2009;Silins et al, 2002;Smith & Squires, 2016).…”

“…Several hospitality researchers (Brownwell, 2010;Kalargyrou & Woods, 2009;Min, Swanger, & Gursoy, 2016;Weber et al, 2013) identify that leadership skills are imperative for graduates entering industry professions, but there are prominent indications that teaching leadership in hospitality management programs is lacking (Saunders, 2004;Scheule & Sneed, 2001). Scheule and Sneed (2001) found that possessing leadership skills is important for industry managerial positions but is the skill for which students are least prepared.…”

Hospitality management educators and industry professionals are being impacted by the demand for leadership skills of managers and supervisors. Teaching leadership is lacking in classroom instruction and to address this concern, faculty, students, and industry professionals should attempt to work together to meet ever-changing industry requirements and expectations.For students to achieve management positions, they should possess the necessary skills needed for the industry. Due to the early stages of leadership education within hospitality management, research to clarify the most prominent leadership style among faculty who successfully implement leadership pedagogy in the classroom will be beneficial for hospitality management educators, who are responsible for instructional change and development.Hospitality management educators completed a 118-item questionnaire measuring leadership style, integration of leadership in classroom instruction, and demographics. Data collected was completed using a focus group and individual interviews to ascertain information to develop and implement an online questionnaire.A total of 217 questionnaires were usable. The majority of respondents identified as transformational leaders (n = 195) and indicated leadership integration in the classroom as highly important. The two most integrated classroom instruction methods were student-led discussions (M = 3.51 ± 1.14) and student-led delegation of group tasks (M = 3.58 ± 1.29). No significant relationship existed between methods of leadership integration and leadership style.Findings from this study contribute to understanding how educational leaders influence leadership skills and competency integration in classroom instruction. Leadership characteristics should be portrayed within higher education to produce quality students who possess the leadership capacity for industry. Recommendations included conducting further studies of hospitality management educators' leadership styles, further transformational hospitality leadership education classroom instruction changes, and effective leadership training for hospitality management educators and administrators.

“…Bağlaçların yeni sinerjisi hem teknolojiyi bilgi paylaşımının temeli olarak gören öğrenim ve etkinlik teorisinindeki potansiyel bağlantıları ve kaosu hem de liderlik ve öğrenimdeki kaliteyi ve verimliliği artırmak için iletişimi temsil etmektedir (Marais, 2011;Transue, 2013). Bu bağlamda, yönetim sürecinin öneminin farkına varmak çok önemlidir, ki bu süreç, dijital çağda görev dağılımında ve görevleri başarmada katılımı, iletişimi ve anlaşmayı gerektirir (Kalargyrou ve Woods 2009 Jones, 2008;Taylor, Martin, Hutchinson ve Jinks, 2007) ve işbirliği yoluyla yapılmasının doğru olduğunu düşündüğünüz birşeyi yapmayı, bir fikri veya vizyonu örgütteki diğer bireylerle veya bir grup kişiyle veya takımla paylaşmayı içerebilir. Bu süreç de bir bireyin ortak bir amaca ulaşmak veya ortak bir görevi başarmak veya başkalarına ortak bir hedefe doğru rehberlik etmek için başkalarından sosyal etki çerçevesinde yardım ve destek sağlamayı içerir.…”
