“To an extent, leadership is like beauty:
it’s hard to define, but you know it when
you see it.”Warren Bennis
3. What is
Leadership?
• John Newstrom and Keith Davis have
described leadership as “the process of
influencing and
supporting others to work enthusiastically
toward achieving objectives.” It is a process
whereby one
individual influences other group members toward
the attainment of defined group or organizational
goals.”
• Leadership is not the same as management.
Although leaders need management skills, they
possess many other important qualities and
have many other functions to perform.
4. Concept of
Leadership
• Leadership is defined as the relationship in which
one person influences others to work together to
reach a desired level of achievement. If there is
no follower, there is no leader.
• “Leadership is the process by which an executive
or a manager imaginatively directs, guides and
influences the work of others in choosing and
attaining specified goals by mediation between
the individual and organization in such a manner
that both will obtain the maximum satisfaction.”

5. Leadership
involves:
• Establishing a clear vision,
• Sharing that vision with others so that
they will follow willingly,
• Providing the information, knowledge
and methods to realize that vision, and
• Coordinating and balancing the
conflicting interests of all members and
stakeholders.
7. Autocratic
Leaders:
Autocratic leaders are an excessive
form of transactional leadership,
where a leader makes use of high
levels of power over his team
members. People within the team
are given few opportunities for
making suggestions, even if these
would be in the team's or
organizations interest.
8. Bureaucratic
Leaders:
Bureaucratic leaders work by the
book, ensuring that their staffs
follow procedures accurately. This
is a very right approach for work
involving serious safety risks (such
as working with machinery, with
toxic substances or at heights) or
where large sums of money are
involved (such as cash- process).
9. Charismatic
Leaders:
A charismatic leaders style can
appear similar to a transformational
leadership style, in that the leader
bring in huge doses of enthusiasm
into his team, and is very energetic
in driving others forward.
Charismatic leadership carries great
responsibility, and needs long- term
commitment from the leader.
10. Democratic
Leaders:
A democratic leader makes the final
decision but he invites other
members to contribute to the
decision-making process, which
increases job satisfaction by
involving team members and also
helps to develop people’s skills.
Team members feel in control of
their own destiny, and are motivated
to work smart.
11. Laissez-Faire
Leaders:
They known as “Delegate leader”
offer little or no guidance to group
members and leave decision-
making up to group members. While
this style can be effective in
situations where group members
are highly qualified in an area of
expertise, it often leads to poorly
defined roles and a lack of
motivation.

16. Warren Bennis (1989) has given twelve
differences between leaders and managers.
They are:
1. Managers administer, leaders innovate.
2. Managers ask how and when, leaders ask what and why.
3. Managers focus on systems, leaders focus on people.
4. Managers do things right, leaders do the right things.
5. Managers maintain, leaders develop.
6. Managers depend on control, leaders inspire trust.
7. Managershave a short-term perspective, leaders
have a long-term perspective.
17. 8. Managers accept the situation as it is (status
quo), leaders challenge the status quo.
9. Managers have an eye on the bottom line,
leaders have an eye on the horizon.
10.Managers imitate (copy), leaders originate (have
original ideas)
11.Managers follow the classic good soldier
(examples set or methods used by other
people), leaders are their own person.
12. Managers copy, leaders show originality.
