MODULE CONTENT
CONCEPT OF LEADERSHIP
Managers are people who do things right, while leaders are people who do the right thing. –Warren Bennis,
Ph.D. “On Becoming a Leader”

SOCIAL INFLUENCE
According to Rashotte, the authors: Defined social influence as things such as behavior, actions attitude,
concepts, ideas, communications, wealth, and other resources that bring about changes in the beliefs, attitudes,
and/or behavior of persons as a result of the action/s of another person.
VARIETIES OR TYPES OF SOCIAL INFLUENCE
Herbert Kelman, a Harvard psychologist, suggested that there are three (3) varieties of social influence, namely:
1. Compliance - Is when a person seems to agree, and follows what is requested or
required of him or her to do or believe in, but does not necessarily have to really believe
or agree to it;
2. Identification -is when a person is influenced by someone he or she likes or looks
up to, like a movie star, social celebrity, or a superhero;
3. Internalization -is when a person is able to own a certain belief or act, and is willing
to make it known publicly and privately.

LEADERSHIP AND FOLLOWERSHIP THEORIES

LEADERSHIP / PAMUMUNO -The action of leading a group of people or an organization.

LEADER / PINUNO -Often typecast as someone who is the head of a group of people
by virtue of having great strength and wisdom, or may have inherited a position of
power even if strength and wisdom were not part of his person’s virtues.

THERE ARE SEVERAL EXISTING THEORIES OF LEADERSHIP

1.Trait Theory -This theory defines leadership based on certain personality traits
which are generally suited for all leaders, such as decisiveness(“Katiyakan”),
persistence(“Pagtitiyaga”), high level of self-confidence (“Kumpiyansa sa sarili”) and
assertiveness(“Pagpipilit”), among others.
2. Behavioral Theory -This theory presupposes that leadership is a learned behavior,
and that leaders are defined according to certain types of behavior they exhibit.
3. Participative Theory -The opposite of an autocratic leader (“Diktador na leader”),
the participative leader involves other people to make common decisions.
4. Situational Theory -This theory assumes that there is no one style of leadership
and that leadership behavior is based on the factors present in a situation, and usually
takes into consideration how followers behave.
5. Transactional Theory -This theory states that leadership involves a transaction or
negotiation of resources or position, usually employs reward and punishment.
6. Transformational Theory -This theory involves a vision, which a leader uses to
rally support from followers, and the role of the leader is in motivating others to support.
the vision and make it happen.
AUTHENTIC LEADERSHIP
THREE (3) BASIC AXIOMS OF LEADERSHIP by Rob Goffee and Gareth Jones
(2006)
1. Leadership is situational -This means that leader’s behavior and what is required
of him will always be influenced by the situation.  It means that a leader is able to
assess a situation quickly, adjust to it, and provide the appropriate and necessary
action to address it for the benefit of his followers.
2. Leadership is not-hierarchical -The exercise of leadership is not based on one’s
position in an organizational chart alone, but also dependent on other factors such as
characteristics, skills, and even connections.
3. Leadership is relational -Leaders and followers establish a relationship where their
interests are mutually met. The role of a leader in this relationship can vary from being
a visionary to cheerleader.

Some factors that influence students’ career choice:

 Parents’ Desire/ Parental Pressure: Choosing a career just live up to the parents’
expectation is the most common decision taking by students from business families
are by default expected to choose commerce career course. Some who resists submit
to the parental pressure leading to an unsuccessful career choice.
 Peer Influence: Most of the students want to follow the crowd to get their destination.
Follow your friends is the most trending exercise visible during the selection of
university or college. Majority choice is the best choice. This mindset increased the
count in the mediocre group where students fail to succeed in their career and just
keep on it with an average performance.
 Skills and Abilities: Considering your skills and abilities and how they may fit in a
particular occupation comes out of one the earliest career development fields, Traitfactors theories, and is used
today. You can identify activities you enjoy and those in
which you have a level of competency though a formal assessment.
 Interest and Personality Test: Holland’s Career Typology Theory. This theory
establishes a classification system that matches personality characteristics and
personal preferences to job characteristics. Holland codes are six personality/career
types that help describe a wide range of occupations.
 Affordability: This is the purchasing power of individual who dares to dream.
 Past Performance: This practice of determining one’s interest field based on onetime exam performance
has often led to a wrong career decision. Let us take a
concrete example, a senior high school graduate who wants to take up BSED is
advised to take up other course because of failing the screening admission.
 Earning Potential: Your chosen profession is likely to be a factor that influencing your
career path. Your personal financial needs are also likely to influence the career
choices you make.
 Location: Geography can have an influence on career path decision in a number of
ways. You may choose a job that requires living in a certain region.
Financial Remuneration: It is identified as the most influential extrinsic factor in
career choice decision. Income was considered as an important component of life,
particularly among youth who had higher level of individualism.
 Teachers and Educators: They are significant figures in the process of youth’s career
decision-making, are seen as significant figures that are agents of development and
could have been influence on students’ decision making
