The empirical studies of the leadership styles have been zooming in to very minute details without any theoretical integration. This research is an effort to present an integrated model of leadership effectiveness and then correlating integrated leadership styles and the employees’ performance. On the moderation side, this study included comparatively newer phenomenon of impact of stages of Organizational Life Cycle (OLC) and leader’s self-efficacy on this relationship. Being exploratory study, it used factor analysis technique for dimensions reduction and identified four basic leadership styles (LS-1, LS-2, LS-3, and LS-4). The main constituent of LS-1 Style is transformational, LS-2 is telling, LS-3 is consultative and LS-4 is pace setting style. These leadership styles could epitomize most of the styles of leadership, available in the relevant literature. LS-1 and LS-3 styles have highly positive correlation with employees’ performance whereas LS-2 and LS-4 leadership styles do not impact employees’ performance. On the moderation side the results show that the LS-1 and LS-2 style leaders will be more successful during later stages of the OLC whereas LS-3 style leaders will prove to be successful during early stages of the OLC. OLC stage will not impact the relationship between LS-4 leadership style and the performance of his employees. Self-efficacy of LS-1 and LS-2 style leaders will have significantly positive impact on the relationship between leadership style and performance of their employees. However, in case of LS-3, it will impact negatively the relationship between leadership style and performance of their employees. Self-efficacy of LS-4 style leaders will not impact the relationship between leadership style and the performance of his employees. The experimental study of this thesis suggested a simpler motivational tool to be used by the leaders for effective performance of their employees. In the light of Herzberg’s motivation-hygiene theory and Festinger’s cognitive dissonance theory, the results show that increasing belief in the system of divine accountability has significant positive impact on the employee’s performance, which is not moderated by education level, age and gender. The concept of integrated leadership styles will make it simple to understand and handier to practice leadership styles theories. The findings of this research may provide guidelines to improve organizational performance by using the most suitable leadership style at different stages of OLC as per the leader’s self-efficacy. The findings can help organizations to fine-tune the contents of business leaders training packages to get required outcomes of these trainings. The integrated leadership styles will help organizations in hiring of new leadership and in setting priorities of leadership development. The researcher hopes that the motivational tool suggested will be helpful to the organizational leaders in improving performance of their employees in general and in the organizations where very less or no supervision is possible, in particular.

عبدالرزاق قریشی
دارالمصنفین میں یہ خبربڑے دکھ اور رنج سے سنی گئی کہ جناب عبدالرزاق قریشی اﷲ کو پیارے ہوئے، ان کی وفات سے نہ صرف اردو زبان و ادب ایک لائق خدمت گزار، بلکہ دارالمصنفین ایک بہت ہی مخلص پرستار سے محروم ہوگیا ہے، ان کے اعزہ نے ان کی وفات کی خبر بڑی تاخیر سے بھیجی۔ معارف کی آیندہ اشاعت میں ان پر ایک تفصیلی مضمون شائع ہوگا، اس وقت توان کی مغفرت کے لیے دل سے دعا نکل رہی ہے۔
(’صباح الدین عبدالرحمن، ستمبر ۱۹۷۷ء)

 

عبدالرزاق قریشی مرحوم
(سیدشہاب الدین دسنوی )
ضلع اعظم گڈھ کی ایک چھوٹی سی بستی بسہہ میں ۳۰؍ جولائی ۷۷؁ء کو عبدالرزاق قریشی پر ۹ بجے دن کو دورہ پڑا، دو تین قے ہوئی، ۱۲ بجکر دس منٹ پر ’’یااﷲ‘‘ کہہ کر آنکھیں بن کرلیں اور پانچ منٹ بعد یہ خاموش، متین اور سنجیدہ، سادہ مزاج اسکالر اور ادیب اپنے مالک حقیقی سے جاملا، اناﷲ وانا الیہ راجعون۔
عبدالرزاق قریشی کم عمری میں بمبئی چلے گئے تھے، جہاں میری اور ان کی رفاقت ۴۱ سال تک قائم رہی، ان کا خاندانی ماحول کچھ ایسا حوصلہ افزا نہ تھا، کہ وہ کسی اسکول یا مدرسے کی تعلیم مکمل کرسکتے، اس کے باوجود وہ بمبئی آئے تو اپنے ساتھ پڑھنے لکھنے کا شوق بھی لیتے آئے تشنگی علم انھیں مختلف چشموں تک لے گئی، مگر آخر میں میکدہ شبلی کے اس بادہ خور کو جس ساقی کی تلاش تھی، وہ ۱۹۳۲؁ء میں پروفیسر نجیب اشرف ندوی مرحوم کی صورت میں نظر آگیا، جو دارالمصنفین چھوڑنے کے بعد پہلے گورنمنٹ کالج احمد آباد، پھر وہاں سے بمبئی کے ایک سرکاری کالج میں اردو کے پروفیسر ہو کر آگئے تھے، اعظم گڑھ کے ہونے کے ناتے اور دبستان شبلی کے خوشہ چیں کی حیثیت سے قریشی صاحب نے...

Ambulatory Hysteroscopy in Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: A Tertiary Care Hospital Perspective

Background: To avoid delays in outpatient facilities for managing benign gynecological conditions like abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB), there is a need to evaluate the usage of unconventional methods like outpatient hysteroscopy. Objectives: To evaluate the usage of outpatient diagnostic hysteroscopy in women with abnormal uterine bleeding. Methods: An observational study was conducted at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Combined Military Hospital, Kharian. The study included 56 women having AUB with or without a history of failed medical treatment. The study participants underwent outpatient diagnostic hysteroscopy. Diagnostic hysteroscopy was done under the local para-cervical block in the Outpatient department. Procedure indications, outcome and biopsy findings were recorded on predesigned proformas. Results: Median age of the study participants was 44 years. The most common indications for diagnostic hysteroscopy were postmenopausal bleeding (34%) and heavy menstrual bleeding (28%). Hysteroscopy outcomes included endometrial biopsy (34%), discharge with no biopsy (25%), further test and evaluations required (21%), and admission due to failed outpatient procedures (20%). Sixty-two percent of the study participants had normal biopsy findings while other biopsy findings included polyps (20%), fibroids (14%) and endometrial hyperplasia (4%). Nine percent had unsuccessful hysteroscopy due to patient refusal to proceed. Conclusion: Outpatient hysteroscopy can be helpful in the early and rapid diagnosis of women with abnormal uterine bleeding.  

Experiences of District Management and School Staff Regarding Newly Introduced Teacher Performance Assessment System in Government Schools of Ghizer, Gilgit-Baltistan

This study aimed to explore the experiences of District management and school staff regarding newly introduced teacher performance assessment system in Government schools of Gilgit- Balistan. The study was conducted in two government schools of the district using qualitative case study approach. Semi-structured interviews, field notes and document analysis were sources of data collection. The study involved seven research participants, a district education officer, two head teachers and four teachers from Gilgit-BaItistan. The study has generated some interesting findings related to their experience. In Government context, there were some concerns and issues in relation to quality teaching, students' learning and drawbacks in the existing performance appraisal tool- Annual Confidential Report, which led the district management to develop and implement a system that was more professional development oriented. It aimed to improve teachers' teaching practices, identifying their needs for the provision of support and accountability. New assessment system was understood as a systematic process of collecting information about teachers' performance for feedback and development. The teachers had positive attitudes towards the new system as it helped them to enhance their content knowledge, planning skills, reflective practices and change their traditional belief of teaching. Most importantly, the systematic process played crucial role in changing the attitude of the teachers towards teaching which contributed to quality teaching and students' achievement. However, teachers had some concerns about unannounced observations and nature of feedback while head teachers experienced less support from the senior management for professional support and monitoring. The District management dealing with large number of schools experienced lack of capacity as a challenge in its effective implementation. The data indicated that collaborative efforts of some key representatives in designing and pilot testing for the feedback before its implementation could be more effective. This study is significant for practitioners to reflect upon their practices and refine the tool to maximize the positive aspects and minimize the shortcomings to make it effective and purposeful.
