What is leadership?Its perspective?
1.Leading peopleThe leader must:•Have a clear vision and mission. If you cannot answer clearly what you are trying to do and what ought to work, you are not ready to start.•See that the right people are selected, and ensure they buy into the vision, mission and plan.•Stimulate extraordinary effort and results out of ordinary people. Involve everyone. A leader is most effective by setting a clear personal example.•Obtain the necessary resources. •Appraise performance accurately, and give people what they need on a timely basis — whether they need guidance, encouragement, or a strong kick in the rear. Replace those who cannot or will not perform to standards. Be fair but firm.•Communicate with your people. Do not let dissatisfaction and misunderstandings build up.•Reward fairly and keep all promises. Remember once mentioned is half promised.

2. Influencing peopleLeadership is about influence, which can be positive or negative. Here are seven ways leaders influence people:Negative InfluenceCoercion: This is the "gun to your face" style of the tyrant. While this forceful method can achieve short-term results, it produces a long-term drop in employee morale and high turnover.Intimidation: "You will do this or your job's on the line" is the trademark of the dictator. Only weak and insecure people will tolerate this style of influence. There is no respect for the leader and the people are resentful.Manipulation: This is the one-sided style of the controller. The leader wins and everyone else loses. The net result: distrust and suspicion..

Neutral InfluenceNegotiation: "Give and take" is probably the most common form of influence. In short, it's the "keeping score" approach of the politician. The good news--it can be reasonable effective when the result is "win-win." The bad news--it often strains relationships and causes needless stress when the result is "win-lose."
Positive InfluencePersuasion: The orator knows how to stir hearts by appealing to emotions. This style of influencer is powerful because the leader's wishes get carried out by the employees because they believe it's in their best interests.Education: The practitioner influences people with logic. People do what the leader wants because it simply makes sense. The secret of this style is preparation.Inspiration: This is the highest form of influence because the leader is a master of both emotional and logical techniques. The greater the quality of inspiration provided by the leader, the greater the quantity of self-motivation that's displayed by the followers. The encourager understands that words (eloquence) and ways (example) must be congruent

1. Communicator: The most effective leaders use all levels of communication to reach out to staff, customers/clients and other stakeholders. They proactively encourage the exchange of information within the organization. All communication whether verbal, written or online communicates consistency and clearly defines what the organization stands for. 2. Thinker: Strategic thinking requires that an effective leader do the following: understand how the different functions of the organization work together and how it can best respond to external and internal changes; learn the strengths and weaknesses of the organization, and the opportunities and threats facing it; understand how the strategic objectives are influenced by current and future business and economic forecasts; recognize that the operational objectives and targets must be in line with and support the strategic objectives of the organization; andbe aware of and respond to the behavior of current and potential competitors.

3. Decision-maker: Developing a consistent approach to the analysis of information is imperative to effective decision-making.

Team-builder: Effective team-building rests upon ensuring that individuals and teams are kept informed of plans, developments and issues that will affect them and the way they do their job. Team-building helps its members to understand and meaningfully contribute to the organization’s strategic goals. 5. Image-builder: A consistent demonstration of fairness, integrity and professionalism builds the kind of image that supports professional achievement and employee support. These characteristics must also work in tandem with being open-minded and responsive to, and supportive of, the needs of individuals as well as the team.
