DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP 4
Introduction
Dynamic leadership is very important behind the success of organization. A dynamic leader is
one who not only motivates employees but also develops them. Not only this, a dynamic leader
understands the different circumstances of different types of employees. There is a theory of
dynamic leadership dictates that a leader must has ability to influence people to fulfill their
targets, determination and he must be an influential personality. A leader is a person who attains
the competence of a leader himself by supporting another person (Sotarauta, 2016). A dynamic
leader has the ability to know the qualities of others and get them to work. When a leader uses
his ability to guide others, provide coaching, he becomes a dynamic leader.
Leadership development plan is very important to make a dynamic leadership. Leadership
development plan is comprises of self- awareness and leadership skills which are required for the
desired position and it also includes some specific steps to achieve a managerial position.
Dynamic leader pursues versatile leadership which enables the leader to be proactive about the
progressions has made by the organization (Schoemaker, et al., 2018). The initial segment of
dynamic leadership approach is that leader uses the idea of the audience.
In the following report, I will describe about my leadership journey of 2 years, which I
experienced after completing my study. I am taking the span time of 2 years because I will take
time to develop my abilities and skills for becoming a dynamic leader in the organization. In this
report, I will discuss about the importance of self-development for a leader and what leadership
model I used for self- development. The report will also describe about the leadership theory,
which is very important to follow to create a dynamic leadership. Leadership has many styles,
such as democratic, authoritarian, dictatorial and autocratic. In my leadership journey, I will use
democratic style leadership.
Role and Responsibilities of Democratic Leader
If we talk about democracy, then democratic leadership helps in maintaining respect between the
employees and the leader, because of this, it can be said that by adopting the same style in any
organization, the organization's operations can be running smoothly. Moreover, decision-making
power can be increase. If we want to make any industry successful, then participating in that

DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP 5
work process is a guarantee of its success. The democratic leader has many responsibilities and
has to play many types of roles.
Respect the opinions of every employee
If I talk to my point of view, the most important function of a democratic leader is to encourage
the employees working under them and to make the employees feel safe. Along with this, the
main task of the democratic leader is to take decisions and help the organization in finding
employees. The leader shares his thoughts with the employees under him, so that the opinion of
the employee is respected.
Divide the task
According to my point of view, the democratic leader collects his ideas for further action and
shares it with the employees who are under him. This makes it easier to know what work the
employee will do and what his role will be because the leader has this in mind that employee is
skilled in what works or what is its strength and weakness. In addition, the leader can discuss the
work of employees by doing a group discussion.
Trusting employees and followers
As per the democratic leadership style, we have to trust our employees and followers. If a leader
trusts followers then followers also respect and admire the leadership style.
Help and guide
A good leader always helps and guides the employees to achieve their particular goal and target.
Challenges for the Democratic leadership
During democratic leadership, there are some challenges that these challenges face:
Lack of certainty
According to this democratic leadership style, this leadership can fail anytime and in any
situation during difficult times. Everyone has own different opinions for this style. In this,
employees and leaders can lose their sanity and become indiscreet. In this situation, the leader
cannot eliminate the personal worries of every employee.

DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP 6
Excess time spent
Whenever a situation of crisis arises, it cannot be eradicated with immediate effect, hence it is
said that this leadership style is time-consuming therefore, very much time is spent.
Properties of apology
We know that when a person handles democratic leadership, he hears and understands the
personal views of all the employees, but he cannot implement the personal views of all these
employees. That is why it has been said that leaders should have the quality of apologizing.
Leadership Model for self- development
Leadership is a means that attracts people behind them. The main job of leadership is to mentor
and coach people and the leader who leads must also have the qualities to guide people and
recognize their skills (Caldwell & Hayes, 2016). Apart from this, whatever results I have
achieved under my leadership, I will present them to the people as a model, analyze them myself,
and get people to analyze them as well. In addition, I will use this model to fulfill my long term
tasks and try to achieve my near future goals easily. The model I will follow is the GROW model
(Solansky, 2015).
GROW Model
This model is based on the coaching model. Through this model, we can solve any problem, set
our goals, and also improve our performance. If you want to be a successful leader everyone is
required to follow the GROW model (Ebrahimi Mehrabani & Azmi Mohamad, 2015).
Goal
I will choose an inspirational goal for this and increase my energy to achieve this goal. In
addition, I will always prepare myself to achieve this goal. As such all, the leaders have a goal to
be an effective leader and learning all the qualities of leadership, it has the mission to achieve
long term goals.
Reality
This is the second step of the GROW model and this is a step in which, I will evaluate my
present situation and realize the problems which I can face in the future and also I will analyze
the strengths and weaknesses (Cong Cheng, et al., 2019).

DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP 7
Options
This is third step of GROW model and it clearly describe the way to find the solution of a
problem in the organization. If I will face any problem in the operations of organization then I
will analyze the issues and make the list of solutions.
Will
It is known as the main alternative to the Grow model. In this, the decisions are clarified and
action is taken on them. Under this, all the obstacles coming in it are analyzed and I will make a
strategy to avoid them.
Importance of self- development to build self- awareness as a leader
Self-development is as important for every person as breathing to live. Without self-
development, we cannot even imagine the existence of a person. Self-confidence considered as
the first step to becoming an effective leader that means confidence is a very important factor for
anyone who wants to become a leader (D'Souza & Gurin, 2016). If we talk about self-confidence
then it is a continuous or lifelong process whereby we set our goals and crave to achieve those
goals. If we want to analyze the potential of our life then the most necessary is self-confidence.
Along with confidence, skill is also very important, if I have the skill of any work, then it will
increase my confidence and with this confidence, I can improve my standard of living. If I want
to be an effective leader in future, then it is necessary for me to increase my self-confidence and
develop my own personality.
Apart from all this, it can also said that if I keep analyzing my abilities and my skills from time
to time, then by this, I can increase my inner strength and with this strength, I can achieve my
later goals. Some analysts believe that self-development is the first step in achieving personal
leadership goals and enhancing one's own capabilities (Shek, et al., 2015). If I develop my skills
then it will help in increasing my self-confidence as well as self-motivation so that I can improve
my self-image. I will first realize my requirements to achieve all this and then self-realization
from them. Maslow also describes these self-realizations but he has divided them all into a
hierarchy, according to which the five basics requirements of this model are psychological needs,
safety needs, belonging needs, esteem needs and self-actualization needs.

DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP 8
Leadership Development plan
If a person follows personal leadership, then that person can make his plan successful and move
in the direction in which he wants to succeed. A person who follows personal leadership can
overcome any problem or can make an effective plan to avoid those troubles (Rubens, et al.,
2018). If I talk to me, I will prepare and follow a personal leadership plan for me. In the future, I
will be able to make myself self-aware and improve myself by improving my work skills. If ever
my plan goes wrong then this leadership allows me to personal development and I will return my
plan to the same or can also bring it on track.
In the future, if I move on the path of becoming my leader, then I will bring change in me first.
First of all, I will set some goals to make myself a good leader and I will achieve those goals. If
there is any kind of hindrance in my path, then by removing those blockages and identifying the
opportunities, I should set my goal and will keep at the first place. In addition, by motivating
myself, I will increase my confidence. In addition, I will remove those shortcomings, which can
be a hindrance in my success. In addition, I will talk to other people about my attitude; I will
know their reaction and will change it if needed (Humphrey, R. H.; Kellett, J. B.; Sleeth, R.G.;
Miao, C.; Qian, S.;, 2019).
In addition, I will make the personal leadership development plan for a long time for dealing
with the aptitudes that I need to work on. The accompanying table demonstrates the individual
administration plan for a long time to improve the aptitudes through dissecting my present
circumstance and target capacity that I could improve and furthermore the time span inside
which I will improve my specific ability and at the last there is an assessment criterion which
will help me look at my achievement of enhancements.

Leadership Style
We know that leadership style is an important factor for running an organization, if someone is
running an organization very well then we can say that it is the skill of the person who leads this
organization so well, every person has their own quality and they all have different leadership
style based on these qualities. Through this style, he gets his employees to do the tasks of the
organization efficiently. In addition, the leader with his leadership qualities can also motivate his
employees for future work. Every leadership style is different, that is, there is some kind of
difference in every leadership style. Based on these leadership styles, they are of the following
types: Democratic leadership style, strategic leadership style, autocratic leadership style,
transformational leadership style, charismatic leadership style and coaching leadership style. If
anyone asks me, which is the best style, then I believe that strategic style is the best because this
style is long term it can be used for a long time (Murphy, 2018).
Strategic leadership style
Strategic leadership has a huge contribution to any leadership, whenever we want to achieve the
long term goals of an organization we resort to strategic leadership. It should have the vision and
long-term vision of the leader. Strategic leaders prepare a strategic plan to achieve the goals of
the organization and through this plan that they make employees work. Another feature of
strategic leadership is to influence and motivate employees. A leader with strategic leadership
also has the virtue of increasing the productivity of the organization (Renko, et al., 2015).

DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP 10
Characteristics of a strategic leader
Communication skills
A good leader must have communication skills that I have. I am a good communicators and I
communicate my thoughts very effectively. I have ability to convey my vision to my colleagues
and employees.
Commitment for the work
I have devotion and energy towards my work as enthusiasm consistently completes work. I am
engaged towards my objective, which encourages me in being fruitful. Responsibility towards
the work demonstrates the commitment of an individual (Holten & Brenner, 2015).
Advancement
Making new advancements and changes and conveying the equivalent to the subordinates is
significant for the leader. I have inventive aptitudes to make new thoughts and execute them with
the best technique and furthermore, I am open to change.
Genuineness and Empathy
Genuineness is the capacity of being faithful and sympathy goes about as a sentiment of
understanding the other purpose of perspectives. In this way, I am straightforward to my
subordinates and the association. I generally attempt to comprehend the issues of my
subordinates, which helped me picking up their trust and regard.
Inspiration
I have enthusiasm to work and I can inspire an individual to accomplish the objectives with the
vitality and assurance. I really put resources into the accomplishment of the association and can
likewise spur the other individual for the equivalent.
Coordinated effort
Coordinated effort means including the workers into the choices, which makes
straightforwardness into the association. I have a community-oriented methodology in basic
leadership as I take the perspectives and recommendations of my subordinates so as to make an
association (Bumphus, 2018).

DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP 11
Receptive
I am open-mined character as I keep myself open for new thoughts and I generally take bits of
knowledge from around. This likewise implies I am prepared to hear awkward things from my
subordinates and I acknowledge each snippet of data (Carter & Greer, 2013).
Valiant
I am a valiant individual and expertise to act when I am getting achievement and have boldness
when I am experiencing disappointments. I am worthy to take the analysis and comprehend that
disappointment is a piece of achievement (Mathis, 2019).
Trained and Accountable
I pursue discipline at the work environment, as it is basic for structure and request. I have vital
reasoning and I take activities on consistent schedule. Responsibility demonstrates the devotion
of an individual. I assume the liability of the duties that I make. I acknowledge the missteps and I
consider myself responsible for each guarantee that I make to my subordinates (Norzailan, et al.,
2016).
Importance of Feedback
In each phase of management, the objective can be achieved only through the measurement and
improvisation. To achieve objectives of the company it is basic requirement of the leader to
achieve trust of the employees and gather feedback and review from them in context of their
roles, duties, work environment and policies of the organization. The feedback of the employees
can be achieved through timely meetings and discussions in the organization. I personally feel
that a leader should provide platform to the employees to interact and share the views as it could
help in collaborative way of working and growing towards the achievement of goals and
objectives of the company as an individual and as a whole.
To grow together is the aim of the good leader as the leader itself defined as the person who
empathizes with its employee values and issues while working in the organization. The
leadership success depends on the satisfaction of an employee. The job satisfaction of the
employees can be achieved through learning, interacting, training and guiding of the employees
in the competitive environment. The best method to achieve employee satisfaction is to gain trust
and compassion among the team (Steffens, et al., 2018).

DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP 12
Feedback from others
It is basic to take feedback from the individuals that are collaborated on regular schedule and the
equivalent is troublesome as a general rule as it makes faltering take analysis and decisions. So
also, I will take important feedbacks from the companions, relatives and instructors as I
communicate with them on everyday schedule that will at last help me in improving my
aptitudes (Valckx, et al., 2018). From input, I can accomplish learning and I can likewise know
the desires for the individuals I cooperate with. I can have the chance to make modifications in
aptitudes that I have so as to make an improvement overall.
Give feedback to others
A leader should offer feedback to the workers on everyday schedule as it makes a commitment
and furthermore helps in the general upgrade in execution of the association. Correspondingly,
for practicing viable administration, I will offer feedback to the subordinates and I will likewise
tackle their inquiries, which will empower in making a solid association with them (Steffens, et
al., 2018). I will offer proposals to the representatives to make upgrades all the while and method
and furthermore managing them with the right method to accomplish effectiveness in their
presentation.
Reflective and Reflexive Practice
Reflective and Reflexive practice both are different types of practices and these are different
from each other. Reflection is a perspective, a continuous constituent of training, not a strategy,
or educational program component (Brockbank, et al., 2017). Intelligent Practice can empower
leaders to gain for a fact about themselves, their work, and the manner in which they exhilarate
to work and organization, noteworthy others and more extensive society and culture. It offers
methodologies to bring things out beyond all detectable inhibitions, and casing fitting and
looking through inquiries never posed (Johns, 2017). Reflective practice is a practice that is
based on the thinking approach. This approach is based on experience, which comes with
learning from experience. It has a paramount position in nature as various factors are known and
evaluated in it. If we talk about the other aspect, then it comes to reflective practice, and
reflective practice is completely based on actions. Whatever action is taken in this is without any
analysis and the main focus is on its goal. By following this, I will start my journey with self-

DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP 13
awareness and self-development. I will use reflective tendencies and follow the same to achieve
the goal. The contemplative practice starts with thinking, the main factors in this are the
experience itself and through them, the learning tendency is adopted.
Conclusion
From the above discussion on dynamic leadership, it can be concluded that a dynamic leader is a
person who motivate, lead and influence the employees to achieve their goals and fulfill the
targets. Dynamic leadership is a process or way to analyze the potentiality of employees and
evaluate their skill and abilities to complete the work. In the above report, I explained about my
leadership plan as well as discuss the importance of personal leadership development plan. In

GROW. I evaluated the leadership style and select strategic leadership for my leadership
journey. Moreover, I also described the importance of feedback in dynamic leadership. At the
end of report, I explained about the reflective and reflexive techniques for the learning in my
