Leadership Styles

credit

There are many types of leaders. Each of them has its very own pros and cons. But today i am just going to share two types of leader. Hopefully this could give you an inspirations or idea to figure out what type of leader are you. smile

1. TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP

Certain leaders literally transform their organizations by making sweeping changes to revitalize & renew operations. Transformational leaders, they are charismatic leaders, Enthusiastic,and self-confident. Transformational leaders are able to clearly communicate his/her vision of how good things could be.

Transformational leadership occurs when a manager:

•         Makes subordinates aware of the importance of their jobs/ performance to organization by providing feedback to worker

•         Makes subordinates aware of their own needs for personal growth, development, and accomplishment

•         Motivates workers to work for the good of the organization as a whole, not just for their own personal gain and benefit 

•         Empowering workers to help with solutions 

•         Engaging in the development of employees by working hard to help them build skills 

•         Being excited & clearly communicating excitement to subordinates

•         Openly sharing information with employees so that everyone is aware of problems and the need for change

2. TRANSANCTIONAL LEADERSHIP

•        Use reward & coercive powers to encourage high performance - they exchange rewards for performance & punish failure

•       Push subordinates to change but do not seem to change themselves

•       Do not have the “vision” of the transformational leader
