Analýza a rozvoj vedení lidí ve vybrané neziskové organizaci

In the non-profit sector, which is characterized by limited financial and human resources and high demands on employee performance, effective leadership becomes essential for the long-term functioning of an organization and the fulfillment of its mission. This diploma thesis focuses on the analysis of leadership in the non-profit organization Klub nemocných cystickou fibrózou (Club of Patients with Cystic Fibrosis). The aim of the thesis is to identify both strengths and problematic areas in leadership, communication, teamwork, and employee motivation and, based on the findings, to formulate recommendations for improving managerial practice.The theoretical part of the thesis presents selected approaches to leadership, principles of organizational communication, teamwork, and motivational theories, while simultaneously placing these areas within the context of the non-profit sector. The empirical part is designed as a mixed-method case study using a questionnaire survey followed by semi-structured interviews with the manager and eight employees of the organization.The results indicate that the manager combines elements of multiple leadership approaches, and her leadership style is generally evaluated positively by employees. The organization’s strengths include a clearly defined vision and strong intrinsic employee motivation. The most problematic area is teamwork, particularly in terms of mutual trust and conflict resolution. Based on the findings, recommendations are proposed to strengthen teamwork, improve horizontal communication, and systematize the provision of feedback.
