Module 6 – Leading

Learning Outcomes:
 Discuss the nature of Leading.
 Determine the differences between a Manager and a
Leader.
 Identify the different types of Leadership
 Leading
Leading involves the social and informal sources
of influence that you use to inspire action taken by others. If
managers are effective leaders, their subordinates will be
exerting effort to attain organizational objectives.
Leading involves influencing others through
direction, inspiration, and motivation toward the attainment of
organizational objectives. Leading is distinct from the organizing
function of management, which generally includes arranging or
assembling resources.

The difference between Managing and Leading

There is a significant difference between leading and managing and thus the words are not synonymous,
but are different ones. They convey a great sense and are best understood within the organizational context in
combination with each other instead of singularly. Simply stated, leading is guiding or leadership, especially in a
spiritual context while managing is having executive control or authority.

Importance of Motivation in Organization

The process of motivation plays a very important role in any

organization, profit, or non-profit. The managerial process of direction
is driven primarily by the process of motivation as it creates within the
mind of an employee the desire to work in the direction determined by
the manager.

Motivation is a process that leads to an increase in the

productivity of the employee. Motivation meets the needs of the
employee and thereby creates the drive to work to the best of his
abilities. A well-employee will be willing to put in more effort towards
the betterment of the organization than another disheartened
employee.
Leadership is the art of motivating people to
work and focus towards a planned objective. It
also encourages them to take up responsibilities
and grow personally and professionally.

In an organization, leadership is a vital

management function that ensures improved
efficiency and achievement of business
objectives. Effective leadership provides clarity of
purpose and guides the organization to its
mission.

An effective leader is someone who:

 Inspires and motivates others

 Has a vision and directs the path to
achieve it
 Ensures the development of their team members

Here are some reasons why leadership style matters:

 Increases team engagement

 Improves team communication and collaboration
 Strengthens the effectiveness of the team

Different Types of Leadership

Democratic Leadership - A democratic leader makes decisions based on their team’s opinion and
feedback. In simpler words, they get everyone involved in the decision-making process.
Autocratic Leadership - This is precisely the opposite of democratic leadership. The opinions of team
members are not considered while making any business decision
Laissez-faire Leadership - Laissez-faire means “let them do”. This leadership style is the least intrusive
and ensures that the decision-making authority lies with the team members.
Strategic Leadership - Strategic leadership is when leaders
use their skills and capabilities to help team members and
organization achieve their long-term goals
Transformational Leadership - Transformational leaders
inspire others to achieve the unexpected. They aim to transform and
improve team members’ and organisations’ functions and capabilities
by motivating and encouraging them.
Transactional Leadership - This type of leadership is task-
oriented, which means team members who meet the leader’s
expectations will be rewarded, and others will be punished.
Coach-Style Leadership - This leadership style focuses on
identifying and nurturing a team member’s strengths and
weaknesses. A coaching leader develops strategies that emphasise
team members’ success.
Bureaucratic Leadership - This kind of leadership style
sticks to the rules. For example, they might listen to their team
members’ opinions while deciding.
 Role of Communication

Communication has crucial impacts on the working of the employees in the organization. The
organizational communication is a channel for the flow of information, resources, and even policies

The purpose of communication in the organization includes:

achieve coordinated action

express feelings and emotion
share information regarding organizational goals, task directions, results of efforts, and decision making
achieve effective control
encourage employees’ participation in decision making
Create a good public image and reputation for the organization.

Communication Styles Should Be in

Every Leader's

Listening - Listening should be the most used form

of communication for every leader
Coaching - Coaching helps employees develop and
build a broad set of skills.
Teaching - The best time for teaching is when you
see someone struggling with a particular skill.
Directing - Directing specifies the steps your team
needs to take to move a project forward.
Advising - s a leader, you’ll spend a lot of time in advisory mode. Think of advising as providing clarity on
a specific situation or clearing up a misconception.
Motivating - Sometimes a team just needs a little encouragement. Know your team and their
preferences

Change Management
Change management is a process of overseeing and
facilitating change at any level where it occurs. It is up to
management teams to decide exactly how this change will be
addressed, develop the process and how to best execute and
apply.

Business organizations today are facing change on a regular

basis. As technologies continue to transform entire industries,
organizations must modernize and readjust their business outlook,
work functions and even their overall goals in response to external
market drivers and disruptors.
