Leadership
is influencing others to think and/or act a certain way, directed at
a specific goal or outcome. It is the fuel which powers the manager,
supervisor and team leader roles. Without effective leadership,
these roles fall flat. The performance of employees and team members
is unpredictable, with so many variables driving it that their
accomplishments are sporadic at best.
Effective leadership provides employees and team members with a
clear vision of the goals and outcomes they are intended to achieve,
a high level of commitment to that accomplishment, a feeling of
security that someone is in control, not in a negative way, but with
both the interest of the organization and the individual in mind.
Poor leadership is at the heart of tangible and observable
performance downfalls. Absenteeism rates skyrocket as employees are
less prone to push themselves both physically and mentally. Work is
done well, but within an atmosphere typically charged with
discomfort at best, and outright anger at the extreme.
