Short description: |
In order to implement the concept of leadership in an effective and worthwhile manner, the individuals need to acquire an understanding in terms of meaning and significance of leadership. When the leaders are performing their job duties or are working with other individuals, they need to inculcate the traits of morality and ethics and lead to goodwill and well-being. Furthermore, the leaders need to be well-aware in terms of measures and approaches to cope with changes and ensure that they prove to be efficacious, and useful to the members as well as the organisation as a whole. The main areas that are highlighted in this research paper are, leadership and management, functions of leadership, types of leadership, and roles of the leaders. |
