Donnez-moi votre feedback par SMS (mobile uniquement)!Les origines du leadership transformationnelLe concept de leadership transformationnel a été introduit pour la première fois par James V. Downton au milieu du XXe siècle. Cependant, c'est Bernard M. Bass qui a véritablement développé et popularisé cette idée à la fin des années 1980. Bass a défini le leadership transformationnel comme un style de leadership où les leaders inspirent et motivent leurs collabs à atteindre des niveaux plus élevés de moral et de motivation.Les preuves scientifiques de l'efficacité du leadership transformationnelLes travaux de Bass et Riggio ont fourni des preuves solides de l'efficacité du leadership transformationnel. Dans leur ouvrage "Transformational Leadership" (2nd ed.), ils ont présenté une revue complète des théories et des recherches empiriques sur le sujet. Les avantages du leadership transformationnel par rapport à d'autres modèlesLe leadership transformationnel présente plusieurs avantages par rapport à d'autres modèles de leadership.Organisationnellement:Réduit les coûts de rotation des employés en augmentant leur engagement et leur satisfaction. Ce style de leadership implique toute la personne, ce qui permet d'atteindre des niveaux de productivité plus élevés.Création d'une culture d'apprentissage.Gestion efficace du changement.Personnellement:Développement personnel et professionnelRenforcement de la confiance en soiReconnaissance et respectSatisfaction personnelleLes 4 composantes du leadership transformationnelSelon Bass, le leadership transformationnel comporte quatre composantes principales, souvent appelées "les 4 I":L'influence Idéalisée (II): les leaders servent de modèles et inspirent confiance et respectLa motivation Inspirante (MI): les leaders motivent et inspirent leurs subordonnés en communiquant une vision claire et inspirante pour l'avenir de l'organisation.La stimulation Intellectuelle (SI): les transformationnels encouragent la créativité et l'innovation en remettant en question le statu quo et en incitant les employés à proposer de nouvelles idées et solutions.La considération Individualisée (CI): les leaders montrent un intérêt sincère pour le développement personnel et professionnel de leurs employés, en fournissant un mentorat et un encadrement individualisé.Les points de vigilance à avoir vis-à-vis du leadership transformationnelAttentes élevées tous azimuts => risque de burnout"Transformer les perceptions""Gagner l'admiration"Utilisation du charismeImplication de "toute la personne"ConclusionLe leadership transformationnel est un style intéressant parce qu'engageant et franchement positif - avec des "adultes", donc des personnes la plupart du temps rationnelles qui savent reconnaître un tyran quand elles en voient un. C'est un des plus complet qui est le mieux étudié.Sources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformational_leadershipTransformational Leadership, Bass et Riggio, 2ème éd., Psych Accès gratuit à toutes nos ressources: www.coapta.ch/campusAccès aux archives du podcast: www.coapta.ch/podcast© COAPTA SàrlTous les épisodes disponibles sur www.coapta.ch/podcast ou sur votre plateforme préférée (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts); cherchez "Leadershift" ou "Vincent Musolino" Faites partie de notre communauté sur le Discord officiel COAPTA!

In retirement, the former CEO of Barnes & Noble - STEPHEN RIGGIO - kept up his interest in the book world, but in a very different way! He took on the extraordinary task of translating a major Sicilian novel from Italian into English! The books are called: LUIGI NATOLI'S SICILIAN AVENGERS: A Novel (Books 1 and 2). They recount the tale of a secret sect that was purported to be the forerunners to the mafia!! It was written in Italian and now available in English – thanks to the translation by Riggio. For over 40 years, Riggio was a key leader in transforming the single flagship New York Barnes & Noble location into a national retailer that expanded into e-commerce and book publishing. When he retired, one of the many activities that kept him busy was to take Italian classes with his wife. Riggio is Italian. Their teacher mentioned the Sicilian historical novels and from then on – Riggio made it his mission to translate the historical novel. Told across 2 gripping installments, SICILIAN AVENGERS is a tale of history and adventure, love and hatred, friendship and betrayal, suffering and retribution, as thrilling as ALEXANDER DUMAS's THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO and as riveting with the intrigue and treachery depicted in HILARY MANTEL's WOLF HALL. With meticulous attention to historic events and topographic details, SICILIAN AVENGERS transports readers to a turbulent period of the island's history, when the pomp, magnificence, and unfettered power of the aristocracy reached new heights, amid the power struggles between France, Spain, and Savoy, and when residents were persecuted by the Roman Catholic Church's dreaded Inquisition and subjected to horrific tortures. And it plunges readers into an enthralling depiction of a secret sect purported to be a proto-manifestation of the Mafia.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

There are many benefits to taking on something new. Something that's challenging, and maybe even out of the box. Stephen Riggio shares his experience. Stephen Riggio joins us from New York. _______________________ Bio Stephen Riggio is a visionary leader and former CEO of Barnes & Noble, where he played a crucial role in its transformation into the largest bookselling chain in the United States. His extensive career in the book industry, spanning over four decades, includes pioneering work in e-commerce and publishing. Beyond corporate endeavors, Riggio is deeply engaged in philanthropy, working with organizations like the National Book Foundation and the National Down Syndrome Society. In recent years, Riggio has turned his focus to translating and promoting classic Sicilian literature, especially the "Sicilian Avengers" series. _______________________ For More on Stephen Riggio Sicilian Avengers: Book One Sicilian Avengers: Book Two _______________________ Podcast Episodes You May Like Retiring: Creating a Life That Works for You – Teresa Amabile Passion and Purpose – Jim Ansara The Art of the Interesting – Lorraine Besser, PhD Unretired – Mark S. Walton _______________________ Wise Quotes On Turning the Page and Taking On Something New "I think what you can let go of is, fortunately, you let go of the stress. And you get all of the adrenaline of something that is new. When I refer to stress, I don't mean the type of stress that is debilitating. People would often ask me when I was in business, it's an age-old question, Steve, what keeps you up at night? And I would say a good book because business was an all consuming thing, but there's a point where you do have to let it go to take care of your personal life and your family, your wife and kids. But I think it is true that once you do turn that page, you can let go of that stress. And it's a type of freedom that is very uplifting. And then if you happen to be fortunate enough to find something that you can latch onto and dig into, then that adrenaline is something that is different than you experienced in work." On Taking On Something New Together "A tragic event was the cause of me learning and getting back into the language. All happy families who are alike, all grieving families, breathe in their own way. What I was looking for was a way for my wife, Laura and I to move forward. It was a year or two after that that I came up with the idea of both of us studying the Italian language together. It would be something to do together, to jump into, and we did it." On Opening New Doors "It does open up a new door to your life. In some respects, when you have a career, you're pointing in a direction. Usually people like to climb the career ladder. They want more responsibility and greater financial rewards. In this particular case, it was a door that I opened that I didn't know where it would lead. So with the idea of something that is a little bit uncertain and unexpected there's a serendipitous aspect of it that I think is very appealing. When I started taking lessons with my wife, we did it together, we didn't know that we would discover my ancestry going back 400 years, that we would meet distant relatives, they'd become very close to us that I would discover things about my family I never knew, and then that I would translate a book. So it's a door that was open and I don't know where it would lead." _______________________ About Retirement Wisdom I help people who are retiring, but aren't quite done yet, discover what's next and build their custom version o...

Help Support the site with official FTGN Gear!In this episode, Joe sits down with Stephen Riggio, former CEO of Barnes & Noble, to uncover the personal journey that led him to translate Sicilian Avengers, an epic historical novel set in 18th-century Sicily. But this is more than a conversation about a book—it's a story of deep roots, personal loss, and a quest to rediscover purpose.Stephen opens up about reconnecting with his Sicilian heritage alongside his wife, Laura, after the tragic loss of their daughter. What began as a healing journey to learn Italian grew into a remarkable project: translating Sicilian Avengers, a story that hadn't been told to English-speaking readers.  Emerging from the dark streets and subterranean caves of Palermo, the Beati Paoli—a shadowy, masked society of vigilantes—mete out their own brand of justice, countering the unchecked power of the aristocracy. For the oppressed and voiceless, they are defenders and heroes.Through Stephen's translation, this forgotten tale of justice and intrigue, reminiscent of a Dumas novel, has been brought back to life. As he shares his experience, Stephen reveals the challenges, the rewards, and the sense of purpose this work gave him in a new chapter of life. He also reflects on his tenure at Barnes & Noble, where he and his late brother, Len, transformed a single Manhattan bookstore into the largest bookstore chain in the United States. For anyone curious about the enduring impact of stories, this episode is an invitation to listen in and perhaps be inspired to seek out the narratives that connect us across time, place, and family.Stephen Riggio is the former chief executive officer of Barnes & Noble (2002-2012). For over forty years he was a key leader transforming the single flagship New York location into a national retailer that expanded into e-commerce and book publishing. Riggio has served on the boards of the National Book Foundation, the National Down Syndrome Society, and is a founding member of the AHRC New York City Foundation Board. He and his wife live in New York.A special thanks to this week's sponsors!Veteran-founded Adyton. Step into the next generation of equipment management with Log-E by Adyton.

There are few more passionate bibliophiles than those who have dedicated their lives to the publishing business. Take, for example, Stephen Riggio, the former CEO of Barnes & Noble who, as he confessed to me, has been hooked on books his whole life. Riggio's latest book project is as the translator of Silician Avengers, the greatest Italian novel that you've probably never heard of. Written in the 19th century by Luigi Natoli, who is often compared with Alexander Dumas and Charles Dickens because he published his prodigious fiction in popular newspaper installments, Sicilian Avengers is the saga of a legendary secret sect purported to be forerunners of the Mafia. Considered now by many literary critics to be one of the most notable works of fiction in the Italian language, Riggio's translated version of the first two books of Sicilian Avengers comes with an afterword from Umberto Eco. Stephen Riggio is the former chief executive officer of Barnes & Noble. For over forty years he was a key leader transforming the single flagship New York location into a national retailer that expanded into e-commerce, book publishing and video games. Riggio has served on the boards of the National Book Foundation, the National Down Syndrome Society, and is a founding member of the AHRC New York City Foundation Board. He and his wife live in New York City.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators. In addition to presenting KEEN ON, he is the host of the long-running How To Fix Democracy show. He is also the author of four prescient books about digital technology: CULT OF THE AMATEUR, DIGITAL VERTIGO, THE INTERNET IS NOT THE ANSWER and HOW TO FIX THE FUTURE. Andrew lives in San Francisco, is married to Cassandra Knight, Google's VP of Litigation & Discovery, and has two grown children.Keen On is a reader-supported publication.
