Effective Leadership
Leaders in the workplace play a unique and vital role in the success or failure of a business. Their responsibilities are great in number and are
continuously evolving to meet the growing needs of the employees and the communities they serve. In order to be effective, leaders must constantly
strive to create a work environment conducive for team unity and collaboration (Llopis, 2012). Good leaders pride themselves on being visionaries
with the ability to lead by example. They have a charismatic gift to inspire and encourage others to work together to meet a common goal (Bateman
and Snell, 2009). Contrary to what some believe, leadership is a shared vision. It involves accepting feedback from all involved and the competence to

Knowing the essentials of how and when to communicate is of utmost importance. Leaders must acknowledge that communication is a two–way
conversation – there is sender and a receiver and all parties involved are playing the roles of both the sender and receiver (Bateman and Snell 2009).
Being a great communicator builds trust among employees. Great leaders strive to master the art of being a sender and receiver and must be willing
to give the same respect he would like to receive. Ephesians 6:5–10 gives an account on how different entities should treat each other regardless of
their roles. Christian bosses, company presidents, managers, crew chiefs, government officials and supervisors are to have the same attitude. The
secular work of a supervisor, just like the work of his or her employee, is to be accomplished from a completely different perspective than the world
understands. Matthew 7:12 sums up what daily life should consist of and that is "do for others what you would like them to do for you" (NIV). A
good leader lives by this passage and consistently promotes success and sustainability. Leadership success begins and ends with vision and is heavily
dependent on the leader's ability to effectively motivate.

Effective Team Leadership
The area of team leadership attracts a lot of attention in the modern world because of the need to assemble and deploy diverse teams for the
completion of projects. The future of many corporations relies more and more on the kind of team leadership they have for their projects. This paper
explores a number of facets that constitute effective team leadership.
There are certain essential elements that constitute the definition of leadership. It may refer to the totality of an organization's top direction–giving
functionaries, or the actions applied in providing direction that enables the organization or team to move forward towards a goal. In reality, there are

This vision attracts would–be followers to join in the effort to alleviate the challenge. Thirdly, it is characteristic of leadership to possess the skills
required to harness the resources that a group brings together and to apply those resources in alleviating the challenge in order to deliver the vision.
Without leadership, a team lacks direction and cohesion. Leadership is there to solve challenges associated with teamwork and to insure the
attainment of the main objective of the team effort. Leadership reduces the risks associated with a project. This happens because the person or team
providing direction for the project do not get involved in detailed implementation freeing them to see the big picture from which they identify and
reduce or eliminate risks. Leadership increasingly means the difference between a successful project and a failed one despite the availability of
resources. This is because of the role leadership plays in the effective allocation of resources to achieve the projects objectives.
On organization is the legacy of its past leaders. This means that all decisions a leader made while in charge live on through the systems he established,
the opportunities he seized, and the mistakes he made. In team leadership, the outcome of the team effort depends on the skill the leader possesses

Leadership Styles : Effective Leadership
This short paper examines effective leadership. Effective leadership may be outlined in many ways. Although exposed to several different leadership
styles, I find that I respond best to a leader who believes in the works and theories of Confucius. According to McMahon, the Confucian leadership
system believes that leadership is an emergent quality of the character that radiates and makes others want to follow, based on the respect and trust the
leader generates (McMahon, 2010). I believe the new president at the law school in which I am employed, exemplifies and leads the institution under
these same philosophies. Conscientiously or not, the new president works and follows the Confucian path of leadership.
Recently, a new president was appointed at my place of employment. As a direct report to the president, I am charged with the responsibility of the
overall enrollment in the institution. Nationally, law school applications have hit an all–time low (Kitroeff, 2014). However, my new supervisor
chooses to lean on her expert team rather than step out on unknown territory. She recognized the school was in a state of displacement and turmoil, and
felt it was her duty to transform an institution she believes in. Unlike her predecessors, she led with a positive attitude and presumed good intent from
her staff and administration. Specifically, she began her tenure by honestly analyzing her strengths, and carefully surveying the institution and her
employees; she wanted to

Effective Leadership Essay
LEADERSHIP
The term leadership has been defined in many ways according to Howard Gardner (1995). President Harry Truman, an infamous leader could lead
people to do what they do not want to do yet like it (Gardner, 1995; cited in Parker & Begnaud, 2004). Eileen Ford from a well established modeling
agency defines leadership as the "ability to convince people to do what you want them to do as if they have thought of it themselves"(Karns & Bean,
cited in Parker & Begnaud, 2004).
Leadership guru Warren Bennis describes leadership as "those who make a contribution makes a difference in the organization, thus giving meaning to
his or her work" (Czarnecki, 2010). Leadership occurs when one tries to influence the behavior of an individual...show more content...
Fred Fiddler suggested that a leaders' style of interacting with followers will be affected by the degree, to which the leader can influence the group,
for example, power or reward (Brain, 2002).
MANAGEMENT V LEADERSHIP
Both "leadership and management" consists of a unique set of behaviors or functions. Managers usually perform tasks such as, planning, investigating,
organizing, and controlling, leaders on the other hand, deal with the interpersonal aspects that a manager would not (Kreitner, Kinicki, & Buelens,
1999). Leaders inspire others, provide emotional support and try to get others to rally around a common goal (Kreitner, Kinicki & Buelen, 1999).
Another notable difference between the two, is that leaders are at the forefront in creating a vision and strategic plan for an organisation, while
"Managers" oversee the implementation of this vision and manage the strategic plan (Kreitner, Kinicki, & Buelens, 1999). Managers "do things right"
while leaders "do the right things" (Bennis & Nanus 1995; cited in Morley, Moore, Heraty, Gunnigle).
GENERAL ATTRIBUTES
Leaders motivate people to develop new objectives, have long range perspectives, are original in their thinking, develop, focus on people, shape,
inspire, and are trusted. They have their eye on the horizon and open this up, are emotional, self–aware, challenge the status quo and do things right

experience I have worked as a part–time executive in a retail store. According to our organization policy if an employee takes leave for more than two

four days. I thought I was fired, but Stores Manager had called me personally to his chamber and counseled. I still remember that he is an ethical leader
even now. After getting counseled, I have changed my attitude and became a real person and never taken leave without prior intimation. Counseling
The counseling for unethical leaders is a tough job, but their behavior can be changed in the long term. The dishonest leaders should be advised
subjectively, and a lot of explanation should be given to them about the outcomes of a particular situation. They must be taught about the importance of
organizational goals, personal ethics, and business ethics. It is also better to send them to ethical training programs so that they can become moral

Followership Effective followership is an essential component of effective leadership in that, without good followers, the leader's work is difficult and
cumbersome. The role of the follower is many times understated. As illustrated by Kelley (1998), "effective followers are thinkers; energetic and
assertive, self–starters, independent problem solvers, and carry out their tasks with these characteristics (p. 143). Effective followers also are
characterized by their ability to perform tasks with little supervision, their intelligence, and ability to think for themselves. We are all followers, even
those who consider themselves leaders; so to encourage this effectiveness in others; we must be role models for those under us, so that they may also
be effective at following. Chaleff (2009) observed that "all important social accomplishments require complex group effort and, therefore, leadership
and followership" (p. 13). We must know how to follow before we can be effective leaders.

Essay on Traits of an Effective Leader
In order to be an effective leader there are traits involved as well as a competency to lead. Failure to take into account the personality traits a
successful leader should possess can lead to employing a leader who is ineffective. Many times people are promoted into leadership positions due to
the longevity of their tenure with a company or how they perform in their current positions. As a member of the management team of Dr. Pepper

We were set back a month because of my slip and it cost many hours of overtime to undo what I had done. Everyone was willing to work with me
and fix the mistake after I displayed that I could be honest and admit to my mistakes. It is this kind of honesty that a leader should possess. The
whole point of leadership is figuring out how to get from where you are to where you need to be. When a leader doesn't have a vision for the
future, it can cause the organization to become stagnant and miss out on great opportunities for growth and change. A leader must set aside some
time for planning and thinking about the future. Organizations, mine included, expect leaders to be visionaries and propel their organizations
forward. I must submit quarterly assessments to my superior in regards to which processes we need to change and why as well as how this
change will impact our future. In Dr. Pepper Snapple Group this is called forecasting for the future and in order to be effective it forces you to take
a close look at your current situation. Once you have a vision for the future you have to share it with your followers whether it may come to fruition
or not. Many leaders hesitate to share their vision because of fear of failure. This is a legitimate concern. However, people need to know that a leader
has a strong vision for the future and a strong plan for going forward (Van Vugt, 2006). Leaders run into trouble sharing their

Power is used to influence its' followers reach optimal job performance and increase productivity (Colquitt, Lepine & Wesson 2013). According to
Malos, supervisors must understand how use the influence of power to wield the direction of employees to meet the goals of the company (Malos 2011).
Moreover, an executive's decisions should be clear and organized when utilizing their authority. It allows employees to perform their jobs better
because the directives are clear. Woiceshyn explains, a study called Neuro–Cognitive that discusses the relationship between the "conscious, reasoning
mind of the manager, and (subconscious) intuition of a subordinate" (Woiceshyn, 2011, p. 315). The manager is the example of the conscious mind,
which is in charge of acquiring knowledge and therefore stores and retrieves information. They then delegate it to subordinates, which are the

However, on the other hand, if the supervisor is logically organized, the subordinates will collect and retrieve knowledge more effectively. How
effectively a manger delegates his/her decisions, will ultimately affect employee's job performances; thus leadership should be clear and organized.

What Makes An Effective Leader? Essay
HBR 's 10 must reads on leadership. (2011). Boston, Mass.: Harvard Business Review Press. Article 1: What Makes an Effective Leader Central
Theme: Article one focuses on the idea that in order to have an efficient or successful environment, whether it be a business, project, or group, a
leader must be effective in their way of working and addressing such environment. The first article focuses not only in what a leader needs to do but
why those factors characterize an effective leader. An effective leader is someone who essentially does what needs to be done, and they complete the
work needed by obtaining information, creating an action plan, by acting upon that plan, focusing on opportunities instead of problems, by working
productively with others, and by incorporating others under one common purpose, plan, mission, or vision. Critical Analysis: This article presents
eight practices that a leader should follow, in a way that is simple enough to understand, and each practice is thoroughly explained. Furthermore, it
would have been useful to see how the traits listed in the introduction contribute to the practices listed. In all honesty, I wish that I would have been
told of these practices when I was president of Bible Club in high school, my sophomore year. Out of the eight practices I did not carry out a single
method effectively. I was the worst leader possible. I was inherited a club that had deteriorated, and I had little to no support from which I could
