LEADERSHIP
Changing Views of
As a leader, you need to interact with your followers, peers, seniors,
and others; whose support you need in order to accomplish your goals. To gain their support, you must be able to understand and
motivate them. To understand and motivate people, you must know
human nature. Human nature is the common qualities of all human
beings. People behave according to certain principles of human nature.
Theory of Human Behavior
SELF-TRANSCENDENCEA higher level or state of development that emphasizes visionary
quick thinking, altruism, and unity
consciousnessSimply, going
BEYOND your EGO
Scientific Management(Frederick W.
Taylor)The Scientific Management paradigm
says that managers should concentrate on improving the
techniques and methods of the workers. Workers need to adapt
themselves to the ideas of management, and managers. Taylor said, scientific manager should not be concerned with workers' human
affairs or emotions. The main focus of a scientific manager is to
meet the needs of the organization, not the needs of
the individual.
HAWTHORNE EFFECT
People work better together when
they are allowed to socially interact with one another
and are given supportive attention.
McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y
Theory X and Theory Y — two opposing perceptions
about how people view human behavior at work and organizational life. McGregor felt that organizations and
their managers followed one or the other approach.
THEORY X1. People have an inherent dislike for work and will avoid it whenever possible.2. People must be coerced, controlled, directed, or threatened with punishment in order to get them to achieve the organizational objectives.3. People prefer to be directed, do not want responsibility, and have little or no ambition.
4. People seek security above all else.
In an organization with Theory X assumptions,
management's role is to coerce and
control employees.
THEORY Y1. Work is as natural as play and rest.2. People will exercise self-direction if they are committed to the objectives (they are NOT lazy).3. Commitment to objectives is a function of the rewards associated with their achievement.
5. People learn to accept and seek responsibility.
4. Creativity, ingenuity, and imagination are widely distributed among the population. People are capable of using these abilities to solve an organizational problem.
6. People have potential.
In an organization with Theory Y assumptions,
management's role is to develop the
potential in employees and help them to release that
potential towards common goals.
LEADERSHIP

Leaders are born with traits that cause them to be effective and that those who do not possess these traits are incapable of becoming a leader.
Leaders are BORN, not MADE.

LEADERSHIPTheories of
CONTINGENCY THEORY(FIELDER)
Effective leadership is
dependent on both the
characteristics of the leader and the situation.
Leader Style: The enduring characteristics approach to
leadership is a manager that is: *Relationship-Oriented: concerned with developing good relations with workers
*Task-oriented: concerned that workers perform so the job gets done.
CONTINGENCY THEORY(FIELDER)
PATH-GOAL THEORY
The Path-Goal Theory of Leadership was developed to
describe the way that leaders encourage and
support their followers in achieving the goals they
have been set by making the path that they should take
clear and easy.
In particular, leaders:
1. Clarify the path so subordinates know which way to go.
2. Remove roadblocks that are stopping them going there.
3. Increasing the rewards along the route.
Leadership is all about making decisions, conceiving vision, setting goals, and making all
efforts with followers in achieving it. Effective
Leadership requires taking situation based decisions.
