RESUMO

A criação de valor tanto nas organizações recém-criadas quanto nas já estabelecidas é uma tarefa complexa e desafiadora. A liderança estratégica cria condições favoráveis para esse processo e para a maximização do retorno sobre o investimento. A liderança gerencial provavelmente conseguirá, no máximo, retornos equivalentes à média dos retornos. As organizações lideradas por visionários que não possuem apoio de uma liderança gerencial sólida podem perder seus recursos até mais rapidamente do que as dirigidas por líderes gerenciais. Este artigo define liderança estratégica e diferencia os conceitos de liderança estratégica, visionária e gerencial. Além disso, analisa os diferentes vínculos entre esses três tipos de liderança e a criação de valor. Quando as organizações restabelecem o controle estratégico e permitem o desenvolvimento de um grupo de líderes estratégicos, eles serão fonte de maximização do retorno sobre o investimento. O resultado será a criação de valor para os funcionários, clientes, fornecedores e acionistas.

Palavras-chave: Estratégia, liderança estratégica, liderança visionária, liderança gerencial, criação de valor.

ABSTRACT

Wealth creation in entrepreneurial and established organizations is a complex, challenging task in today's global and technologically advancing business environment. Strategic leadership enhances the wealth-creation process in entrepreneurial and established organizations, and leads to above-average returns. On the other hand, managerial leadership will likely lead to average returns at best, but is most likely to achieve below-average returns and destroy wealth. Organizations led by visionaries who are not properly supported by strong managerial leadership may destroy wealth even more quickly than organizations led by managerial leaders. This article defines strategic leadership, differentiates among the concepts of strategic, visionary, and managerial leadership, and examines the differential links between the three types of leadership and wealth creation. When organizations restore strategic control and allow the development of a critical mass of strategic leaders, these leaders will be a source of above-average returns. The result will be wealth creation for the employees, customers, suppliers, and shareholders of entrepreneurial and established organizations.

Key words: Strategy, strategic leadership, visionary leadership, managerial leadership, wealth creation.
