INTRODUCTION
Leadership is the best activity to motivating a people and their team as well as enterprise.
It is getting an individual demand and needs which to follow. That needs are attracting
turbulently, from the mind & heart, and wants persuading person to change. It is a mind-set of
sum accountability of personal for the outcomes supplied without blame, fault, or many way
finger-pointing when output are bad. During the day leadership has various challenges for
examples: virtual teams, technology, electronic -business, and budget cuts enterprise requirement
to modify the various way.
This file is based on topic “CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF LEADERSHIP” as well as three
CEO's in Australia. Purpose of this assignment is to determine the leadership of 3 Australian
CEO's to analysis relevant research and theory of leadership or how it can develop leader
performance and enterprise productivity (Avolio and Yammarino, 2013). This file mainly
focuses on the leader’s critical analysis and identifying 3 biographical and interviews. This file
also analysed the leadership conceptualisation and their success (What Is Leadership? 2017).
There are various problems which are face by 3 CEO's, it will also have described in this
assignment. Development of implementation strategies and leadership plan which are here in this
file.
(A) SELECTING AND ASSIGNING CEO'S
There are three Australian Chief Executive officers selected for this assignments are as
follows:
(1) The CEO's Andrew Bassat: He is a CEO of seek Limited in September 1997. He saw a various
modification in both revenue as well as organisational culture. This business has become
the seeking portal of job in Australia. Louis Gries: Mr Louic Gries has been the CEO's of James Hardie Industries in February,
2005. His was serve as general manager or leader of U.S.A.
 Peter Allen: He is a CEO's of SCentre Group in 10 February 1944 to 18 June 1992. They
have track record of experience and new gained more than fifty five years developing
and owning several of the starring shopping areas in Australia (Choudhary, Akhtar and
Zaheer, 2013).

(2) Framework
Effectiveness of leadership, it can be determined by analysing the interaction between the
above leaders, situations and team members. This framework is very essential to given the
various ways to selecting and choosing the CEO's. Under such kind of company and it can be
defined by salaried modification and maximising the level of competition. Digital interruption as
well as economics pressures combine and drive impulsive surrounding. For the critical analysis
they chosen three CEO's, for the successfully confronted so as they are recently facing different
issues and challenges. These sources are very essential to give best generality element for the
investigating. However, every leaders have a best personality and various individual plan to
leadership. These will also give best opportunities to contract or compare with the style of
leadership of above CEO's. regarding to the combination, environmental changes in the common
manner, personal approaches, gives a valid relation in this assignment. The leadership approach
of a personal which influenced the several member of the groups and moulded outcomes of an
enterprise.
(3) Assessing Effectiveness
It is another phase of selection, CEO's has capability to evaluate effectiveness of
leadership. Its measurements are very problematic, so in this way judgement can be perceptions
and as the revealed way to change necessary message. There are mainly two important criteria
which can be determined and used to identify effectiveness of leadership (Eatough and et.al
2011). 2 parts as define task performance assignment mostly prospective which is highly based
on all prospectors and objective data appraisal for examples: gross figures. Assigning process of
leader satisfaction which is much difficult to evaluate organisation performance in an essential
way. These file is mostly based on subjective approach and how the team leader understand the
personality and project execution of a leaders as well as manager. This report is needed to
identify important data and information upon the process of analysis. In this report, there are 3
Australian Chief Executive officers that are chosen have either completed their time period on
the position of CEO's or they had some external influence on the business activities of the
organisations.

(b) ANALYSING THE CEO'S
(1) Construction of the leader
CEO's is main part of this file and they play important role in the enterprise success and
growth as well as reduce different problems related to the environment. They are professional
and talented which is necessary because it reflect the outstanding achievement of leadership and
high performance of an enterprise (Eyal & Roth, 2011). Apart from that, there are several
difference related to the how 3 CEO's are represented such as constructed in many accounts. The
one of the main deviation is their personality traits that is learned. Joined with the knowledge
capabilities as well as essential experience both are prerequisite for activity. Articles on Andrew
Bassat to accent her positive capability or outlook which is essential to inspire belongings. Louis
Gries is delineate as a tender hearted but her was known as executive general manager, chairman
and management board manager and leader, while Peter Allen is represented as a charismatic or
driven. In this way, leadership reinforce was constructs as a pigeon-hole, Andrew Bassat
personality attribute is very general adjusts with expectation of engagement & raising.
This assignment is related with assigned to Peter Allen can be formed with an ascendant,
leadership style like Alpha male is very essential which is apply by all leaders. While Louis
Gries focused on modern style of leadership. However various constructs are not done with the
individual reflation. Apart form they give a small through to the team person which may
explicate the leaders action, attitude and behaviour. In this way all traits are influences by the
leader’s satisfaction. In this form culture of an organisational are also shapes the leader’s
perceptions. At the last, when seed in personality traits, separation both are very poor leadership
visionary outcomes (Gildersleeve, Croom and Vasquez, 2011).
(2) Conceptualisation of leadership
Leadership define as a conceptualised in a several ways of multitude. Leadership
conceptualisation which is determined by the 3 leaders such as a CEO's in an essential way so it
is known as remarkably with similar. They are emphasise the effective communication, clear
vision or mission, exalting creation and culture modification those are very significant. Many
actions are connected with leadership of transformational. Such type of activity seeks attain
board changes of organisational. It bespeaks as previously, Seek Limited, James Hardie
Industries and Scentre Group want to develop performance of an enterprise. James Hardie was

the “Aguish Whelp” of the industry of accounting, seek limited was Australia position is
conformist disruption of digital (Hallinger, 2011). These destinies obligate by the CEO to
undertake several transformational changes programs if they are change the long period outlook
of an economic. In this way current investigation is validates with the assist of this methods
which is indicating the transformation approach of leadership that is subordinate with increased
effectiveness of activity.
(3) Success Conceptualisation
The success conceptualisation, so in this form CEO's must be complete the improvement
of performance as well as prepare the potential challenges in an effective manner. It is a best
aggressive benefits factors of an enterprise. In this form those CEO's are determine has a similar
success conceptualisation, but a not similar intensity, Peter Allen vision evidence is “To be an
individual economics outstanding services businesses, supporting our buyers, person grow and
communities.” Andrew Bassat success vision is an information culture (Gordon, 2011). James
Hardie Industries to differentiate in an individual way from their personal challengers by
financing in its own as well as 'thinking differently'. Apart from this, it to create profit from
innovative factors or sources. Their vision was not clear in the post of Australia. There is no
mission and vision for the statement related to website. However, those CEO's position and their
all values, roles and purpose are indicating a focus of buyers- “Giving efficient and better
services to the society”. This identification determine the CEO's envision in the success of
leadership so it means improvement performance also intensify to client’s service, but there is
main focuses on efforts changes. Andrew Bassat was intensiveness enterprise sensitiveness. Post
of Australia is skilfulness, and Seek limited – there was a personal skills. These 3 factors are
combine as well as inter-related to develop task performance measures.
(c) LEADERSHIP PRACTICES IN ATTAINING ORGANISATION
SUCCESS
Changing the complex situation with the assist of leading, as indicated by the statistics
that 80% of transformational modification events get fail. The leadership theory of
transformational states various roles and responsibilities of leader which is inspire with the
assistants to move on the far side their own interest for the better for the industry. Apart from
this, realising the outcomes of an organisational also needs the Chief executive officers to take

action. They must give employees with the independence, framework and factors which is
needed to gain the vision. When compared with various leadership theories, it is released that
this actions are in aligned with several approaches of leadership which includes transactions,
participative and strategic leadership (Hannah and et.al. 2014). How the three CEO's are
examining these approaches in their practices like direction balance as well as divine guidance
can give insight. So in this way, a leader how impact the success of an enterprise. MGT536 leadership: In this way, participants will analyse & explore several problems
like: Contemporary issues which is highly effect on above three industries leaders. This
method draws on applicable approach of leadership and determining recent investigation
on these problems which is face by three CEO's in their companies. Transactions Theory: This approach determines the products and services outsourcing
production and actual cost. This will include the coordination, transaction, search and
contracting costs. In this way many costs are thoughtful when making a best judgements
and doesn't the prices of market (Leadership Theories, 2016). This theory is very
important to make versus purchases judgements for business. Andrew Bassat was apply
this theory because it coordinates between the internal and external factors of cost which
is necessary to reduce cost related issues. Participative Theory: It define as a style of management that is used in current day by an
essential and various numbers of business. This approach mainly focus on the process of
decision making which is made by the company CEO's. These kind of concept apply by
above three leaders in their life and organisation culture. It is necessary for the enterprise
success and growth. It also decrease the conflict and obstacles among the staffs
(Lévesque, Hovey and Bedos, 2013). In this way judgements are made with the assist of
feasible participation amount from everyone impacted by the conclusion.
 Strategic Theory: It is a best capability of effecting another to make judgements in their
choice that intensify the outlooks for the long term growth and success of a business.
While sustaining long-term stability of financial. Several kinds of concept of leadership
are effect the growth direction or vision, and future success of an enterprise.
(1) Strategy
Those theories are very important as well as necessary to give nest inspiration and
direction for the success of an enterprise. In this form three and every CEO's plagiarised their

mission or vision analysing the organisational surrounding and the weaknesses and strengths of
businesses. They finished their first purpose and aim, so it was give better buyers services. Still,
provided differing matters to every placed which is intensities on several features of the
economic where they evaluated different short term activity that would have advantages of long-
term. Seek limited is emphasized the individual importance, the position of Australia which is
focussed on Westpac financing and efficiency on sensitiveness (Lord and Dinh, 2014). In this
way three CEO's are liable or responsible for approving and selecting the direction energy, but
those leaders are interpreted the significance of shared inspiration. There are several examples:
Seek limited was occupied its staff members in development of strategy. In 1997, Andrew Bassat
asked every Seek Limited members to determine “quick wings or dense belongings”, providing
the opportunities of staff to form the activity which is taken by the enterprise. Similarly Louis
Gries was used the “Surface Trial” to identify if her member could clearly and speedily
determine the strategy and vision of companies as well as their duties in it.
(2) Employee Employment
The employment of workers is embodied in exchanged delegation or decision making. In
this research, every chief executive officers had a separate method to their workers. Peter Allen
wanted workers comment and accumulated on the giving his member with innovative skills, it
means design thinking. Louis Gries official emissary to division managers, authorise them to
react to society requires. While Peter Allen wanted to recruiting innovative candidates and
support from within to stimulate the enterprise and emphasis the modification initiative. In this
way every method had its criticisms and every concepts was successful. Still, neither of the
concepts would have changed as an efficaciously in many enterprise (Nkomo, 2011). Every
leader had realigned their method with the imagination, disregard the variations, in this form all
approaches chosen and attained the similar goals. In this situation, they glorious the team
persons, parented initiative and duties as well as connected work tasks to enterprise objectives.
Still, employment of employees which is neither without any limits.
(3) Performance Controlling
In this way, transaction theory of leadership which is focuses on several kinds of ordinary
activity such as reporting, assessment of performance, and management of rewards etc. during
the modification in transaction approach which can support realising outcomes of enterprise by

helping performance measurements or accountability. Evaluating action in every enterprise and
their group members. It allows the leaders to determining the gaols data to sustain the
development towards imagination. It also gives the best opportunities to behaviour of reinforce.
Louis Gries had a very rigorous method to personal performance like: “Execute as well as you
are execute”. In this trends, he fixed the needed standard as well as held individual responsible
for their results and they attained through their personal responsibility and initiative (Paulienė,
2012). Andrew Bassat, Louise Gries, Peter Allen are used controlling in their performance, it
means of ennobling Seek Limited, James Hardie Industry and Scentre Group. Fixing intriguing
but realistic objectives in locations that extended from profit objectives to male proposition. In
this form short term targets are inspiring the enterprise by giving building confidence or quick
wins. They also establish the organisation progress at over time, giving the leader with valuable
comment they can communicate consequent judgements and improve of the policy. Such kind of
activities increased the outcomes of transformational by disabling the leader to workout both
inspiration & direction.
(D) CASE STUDY: ANDREW BASSAT AND AUSTRALIA POST
(1) Challengers and context
Both terms are very difficult and complex in every organisation to achieve growth and
success in an essential way. In this fore, government of Australia appointed Andrew Bassat as a
post of CEO in March 1997. In September he declared “Coming Prompt” which is supposed to
take position in Australia from a communication organisation which is highly interdependent
upon traditional electronic conveyance to a largely aggressive distribution, electronic services
and retailing giver in Australia. 'Coming prompt' expected a success and growth from 1997.
Unluckily, in 2000, post in Australia which is declared its prime loss in 20(Approx) years. It is
identifying as a financial lose, related with employees repetitiveness and resignation of potential
staff will lead to negative leadership of Andrew Bassat (Ross and et.al. 2011). These leader was
recently facing many challenges and several issues. This problem will includes levelling the
diminution volumes of letter with efficient facility, determining the company events to intensify
the electronic services and parcel as well as ineffectively attracting with community and
members. Still, the challenge in an immediate which is appointment by Andrew Bassat (Alison

& Crego, 2012). This leader was must develop buyers as well as worker’s confidence in the post
of Australia.
(2) Current action
Mr Andrew Bassat recent activity area on communicating the issues nature at the post of
Australia. In this situation media plan an essential role to seek emphasise the strength of an
enterprise such as growth and success of revenue in the sector of parcel while determining why
position has to modify (Rouquerol and et.al. 2013). Andrew Bassat is passively following small-
scale business persons in order establish the opportunities which is given through the enterprises
that established network of distribution. At the same time, the company is hunting to maximise
society appointment by inspiriting community feedback on basis of proposed modifications
through its internet site. The program of transformation has been in location for 5 years. Andrew
Bassat was must establish several short term benefits in order to rise assurance in the enterprise
as well as its leadership.
(3) The way forward
There are several problems related to the work based issues which is facing by 3 Chief
executive officers. Situation define as ethics counsel with correct behaviours for enterprises.
They are the through of central which beliefs that the CEO's ethics as well as honesty which
effects perceptual experience of modification leadership. These abstractions are impacted in the
human action that doing others roles and responsibilities. Post of Australia and their values in
organisational which is include supporting each other, respect and buyer’s satisfaction. These
beliefs gives a better foundation for impacts to rise buyers and workers fulfilment while
presenting Andrew Bassat as an ethical as well as compassionate CEO. Still, several areas which
is focuses in a possible manner are worker’s remuneration and buyers services.
Post of Australia and their parcel service is a meter to an important and large number of
complaints. Deliver parcel of contractors such define as position, workers at parcel carry out
areas cannot act complaints about instead, deliveries (Santamaría, 2014). In this form they must
bring up buyers to an internet side. This location for burdening the objections at container carry
out places that would develop outcomes of an enterprise. In this situation buyers will have their
objections detected by their position in representative and in Australia (Zhu and et.al. 2011).
Building the relationship, in this situation, buyers would spirit several sceptre by get capable to

give a better solution to the issue, and the enterprise would seizure good buyer’s service
comment. This will improve image of Australia by determining the honour and supporting each
other instead of blaming dealer for bed performance. It will also develop task performance
assessments.
Another problem is worker’s remuneration. Andrew Bassat and their superior executive
members, are frequently evaluator for their high performance and wages. In this situation, he has
given his incentive to an organisation of non-profit (Thompson, 2013). Such kind of action
devise as a mixed outcome. Still, provided the current business failure as well as expected over-
plus, regulating this behaviour that may support establish the leadership team commitment.
These kind of action are making reinforce or behaviour pattern for the helping and respects of
each other. Effectiveness of leadership is a best term in these actions, which may negative
picture of Andrew Bassat and develop satisfaction assessment with the Chief executive officers.
CONCLUSION
As per the above information that determined the critical analysis of leadership in a work-
related surrounding and gives various solution to the problems. In this file also use several theory
of leadership to decrease and solve the problems. There are many tools and technique's which is
used to provide best solution to the issue. There are three CEO's and their company, those are
face difficult problem in this business. This basic issue in this file is Australian post which is face
by 3 leaders in an effective manner. Theory of leadership is Participative, which is 3 Chief
executive officer apply in this organisation because it is a best theory to reduce conflict and
misunderstanding among the staffs. Mainly they are face financial problem in their enterprise
and they apply participative theory which is define as best decision making process in their
organisation.
