Looking at Leadership Through Several Lenses
Looking at Leadership Through Several Lenses
Studying only leaders provides just a partial view of the leadership process.
Leadership depends on several factors, including the situation and the followers, not just the leader’s qualities or characteristics.
Leadership is more than just the kind of person the leader is or the things the leader does.
The clearest picture of the leadership process occurs only when you look at all three aspects.

The Leader (continued)The Leader (continued)
Leaders who are appointed by superiors may have less credibility with subordinates and get less loyalty from them than leaders who are elected or emerge by consensus from the ranks of followers.
A leader’s legitimacy may be affected by the extent to which followers participated in the leader’s selection.
A leader’s experience or history in a particular organization is usually important to her or his effectiveness.

The Followers (continued)The Followers (continued)
Workers who share a leader’s goals and values will be more motivated to do their work.
The number of followers reporting to a leader can have significant implications on that leader’s effectiveness.
Other relevant variables include follower’s trust in the leader and their confidence (or not) that he or she is interested in their well-being.

There is no Simple Recipe for Effective Leadership
When observing leadership behavior, you need to think about the effectiveness of that behavior in that context with those followers.
A leader may need to respond to: Various followers differently in the same situation. The same follower differently in different situations.
Follower may respond to: Various leaders quite differently. Each other differently with different leaders.
Two leaders may have different perceptions of the same followers or situations.

The right behavior in one situation is not necessarily the right behavior in another situation.
Although we may not be able to agree on the one best behavior in a given situation, we often can agree on some clearly inappropriate behaviors.
