up confidence and zeal among
people to create and urge them to

a manager must possess the

• There is a misconception that leaders are born, and not made. Whilst this is true
for some, leadership can be developed through embracing the mindset, training,
and knowledge of what a good leader looks like. Just because someone is a “born
leader”, it doesn’t mean they are a proud, useful, or effective leader either. The
nature of a leader is multifaceted.

Leadership Traits

Intelligence
 Intelligence, or intellectual or cognitive ability, includes mental
capacity for understanding, reasoning, and perception, as well as
the aptitude for grasping facts and the relationships between them.
Leadership Traits

Self-Confidence and Determination


Leaders who possess self-confidence have realistic certainties in their own
judgment, ideas, ability, power, decision making, and skills. Such leaders know and
trust themselves without pride or arrogance. They have a positive attitude about
themselves and are able to press ahead with the belief that, if and when they make a
wrong decision, any setback can be overcome.
Determination is the motivation a leader needs to come to a decision, and it includes
such characteristics such as energy, initiative, persistence, and tenacity.
Leadership Traits

Personal Integrity
Personal integrity—simply, the adherence to personal values in day-to-day behavior
—is a predominant aspect of interpersonal trust. Effective leaders show their
character by being ethical, trustworthy, and honest. With regard to integrity, leaders
truly must “walk the talk.”
Leadership Skills

 Leadership skills are the competencies and knowledge that a leader


possesses and uses to successfully reach goals and objectives.
 Whereas traits define who the leaders are, skills determine what the
leaders are able to accomplish.
Leadership Skills

Technical Skills
 Technical skills include knowledge about an organization’s work, structure, and
rules; proficiency in specialized activities; and an understanding of the methods,
processes, and equipment used by organizational units.
Leadership Skills

Interpersonal or Human Skills


 Whereas technical skills involve working with things, interpersonal or human
skills are all about working with people. Leaders should have a knowledge of
human behavior and group processes, and they should be able to understand the
feelings, attitudes, and motives of their followers.
Leadership Skills

Conceptual Skills
 Just as technical skills involve working with things and interpersonal skills
involve working with people, conceptual skills involve working with ideas and
concepts. Conceptual skills incorporate a variety of attributes, including
judgment, intuition, creativity, and foresight. Some conceptual skills, such as
inductive or deductive reasoning, logical thinking, analytical ability, and concept
formation—can be measured using aptitude tests.
Leadership Styles

 Psychologist Kurt Lewin developed his framework of leadership


styles in the 1930s, providing the foundation for many other styles
following later. According to Lewin, there are essentially three core
leadership styles, each of which is shortly summarized below.
Leadership Styles

Autocratic Leadership
The autocratic style is one in which a single person takes control and
makes decisions, directing others in his or her chosen course of action.
Lewin’s team found that this was the most unsatisfactory leadership style
with the youth groups.
An autocratic leader makes decisions without significant employee
involvement in the process. He works from an authoritarian perspective.
This approach often corresponds to a task-centered style. This approach can
be faster and more efficient than more discursive approaches.
Leadership Styles

Democratic Leadership
In a democratic leadership style, one person takes control but is
open to group input, often allowing the group to make decisions and
collectively assign tasks. This leader guides rather than directs. This
was the most popular leadership style in the youth groups and
garnered the greatest positive response.
Leadership Styles

Laissez Faire Leadership


 The final leadership style Lewin identified was the laissez faire
leadership. Under this framework, the subordinates are given the
ultimate power to decide how they want to achieve the vision set
forward by the leader. The leader’s role is essentially to provide the
subordinates with the right resources and advice, if needed.
THE MANAGERIAL
GRID AND
MANAGEMENT
STYLES
Managerial Grid Model is based on two
behavioral dimensions:
 Concern for people: This is the degree to which a leader
considers the needs of team members, their interests, and
areas of personal development when deciding how best to
accomplish a task.

 Concern for production: This is the degree to which a


leader emphasizes concrete objectives, organizational
efficiency, and high productivity when deciding how best
to accomplish a task.
USING THE MANAGERIAL GRID
You can analyze your leadership style by using the Managerial Grid
Theory. You can break down the process into these few simple steps.

 IDENTIFY YOUR MANAGERIAL STYLE 


Evaluate how you’ve acted in a recent situation in terms of
tasks and team collaboration. Position yourself on
the Managerial Grid accordingly.

 SITUATION-BASED CONTEXTUALIZATION 
Some situations will require a task-oriented mindset and
others will require a people-oriented mindset. Either way, the
Managerial Grid will enhance flexibility.
What Is a Management Style?

 A management or leadership style is how a manager


exercises their authority to ensure that objectives are
achieved. So, that means it includes how a manager plans
and organizes the workload within their area of
responsibility and how they communicate with and
manage their team. But it's not just about what they do
because key components to a management style also
come from the attitude and behavior they adopt.
CONTINGENCY APPROACH OF LEADERSHIP

• The contingency approach tries to match specific techniques or concepts


of managing to the specific situation at hand in order to attain
organizational objectives most effectively.
• The essence of the contingency approach to leadership is that the leaders
are most effective when they make their behavior contingent upon
situational forces, including group member characterics.
Path Goal Leadership Theory and Empowerment
 The Path-Goal theory defines the characteristics of followers and organizational
context and the corresponding leadership style best suited to these factors. A
leader should adapt to a behavior that is most relevant for a given employee and
work environment mix to achieve a goal. The application of theory drives
increased employees' motivation, empowerment, and satisfaction resulting in
increased productivity.

Overview of Path Goal Theory of Leadership:


 This theory was developed from expectancy theory to describe the way that
leaders encourage and support their followers in achieving the organizational
goals that have been set for them by making the path clear and easy. This theory
emphasizes the relationship between leader’s style and subordinate
characteristics and the work-place setting. Subordinates get motivated when
they think that they are capable of performing their work and believe that their
efforts will result in a certain outcome and the payoffs for doing their work are
worthwhile. In particular, leaders should be doing the following three tasks:
 Clarify the path so that the subordinates know which way to go. This
motivates the members of the group by clarifying the path to personal
rewards that result from attaining work goals. You have thus `fixed' him
on the job and made him see that his performance can lead to positive
or negative rewards.

 Once you have made the path-goal clear to the members and also told
them about what the job requires, the next step is to remove
roadblocks that are stopping them from reaching there. Leaders provide
followers with the elements they think subordinates need to reach their
goals.

  The third step is increasing the rewards along the route. Leader must
offer the reward to the member of the group who actually accomplishes
the task. Your reward may as simple as praise or can also lead to
increase in the pay or promotion of the member to a higher position.
