Leadership is the ability to develop a vision that motivates others to move  with a passion towards a common goal.  So leadership is a process by which person influences others to achieve the goal. It is ultimately about creating a way for people to contribute to making something extraordinary happen.
Leadership is something that helps allot in achieving the objectives and leader is the one who makes it. So for achieving the goals in effective manner leadership takes some following characteristics –

1)    Leader must have followers
2)    It is working relationship between leaders and followers
3)    Purpose is to achieve some common goal
4)    Leadership is exercised in a given situation
5)     It is a powerful relationship
6)     It is a continuous process

There are four factors that effect leadership .

1)    Leader–you should have confidence in your own that who you are, what you know and what you can do. You  should make your followers believe in you instead of your superiors.  Make them sure that you are worthy of being followed.

2)    Follower–leadership is not successful until you dont have good followers. You should have good understanding of human nature like needs, emotions etc.

3)    Communication– there are two types of communication a) verbal and b) nonverbal . The nonverbal type of communication is leading. Bad communication skills harm the relationship between leader and employee. 

communication skills harm the relationship between leader and employee.
4)    Situation–what we use in one situation is not applicable in the other. So we must use our judgement to choose the best course of action and the leadership style.

As above we talked about the leadership styles. So here we need to know that what is a leadership style? A leadership style is a leaders method of providing directions, implementing plans and motivating people. Now we will discuss about the leadership styles.

1)    Autocrat–in this a leader takes decisions without asking anyone else. There lies a high degree of dependency on the leader, which may de motivate the employees.

2)    Democratic  - in this members of group take more participative role in decision making. Employees  are supposed to share their ideas and opinions.

3)    Lassiez Faire -  it is the direct opposite of autocratic style.  In this the leader gives the complete freedom to its subordinates to act on their own.
To bring out the leadership effectively we must need to have a  best leader . As he/she is the person who completes the process. A leader is someone who can see how things can be improved and who rallies people to move toward that better vision.  The types of leader are:-

1)   Intellectual leader
2)   Creative leader
3)   Persuasive leader
4)   Institutional leader
5)   Democratic leader
6)   Autocratic leader

Last but not the least, “ IF YOUR ACTION INSPIRE OTHERS   TO DREAM MORE ,LEARN MORE ,DO MORE & AND BECOME MORE ,THEN YOU ARE A LEADER.”
THANK YOU!
