INTRODUCTION
People management is all about managing the human resources of company. Task of
recruitment and management is carried out for managing the entire process of company. When
managing the group within an organization, a manager must concentrate on both recruiting right
people and then getting the most out of these people. In the present report National Health
Service has been chosen for the assessment. It is a health care organization in the United
Kingdom that is affiliated to health and social care in Northern Ireland and operates
independently. It was established in the year 1948 for providing social services to people. This
report majorly focuses on leadership and management styles and its models. In addition to this,
training and development as well as talent management are also discussed here in detail.
TASK
Area 1: Leadership and management
National Health Service is planning to shift their leadership style from traditional 'heroic'
leadership towards a more collaborative approach. For the same, different leadership models are
required to be implemented by the management of health service.
Leadership models and theories are not in themselves a solution, but a tool to help in
developing understanding or a common language. Remember these are the only tools. An over
simplification of a view of reality in understanding the entire management system. Here,
different models are being used for shifting of leadership style in National Health Service care. It
helps in knowing that leadership styles are required to be changed with period. It also aids in
becoming better and adopting things as per the trends and changing world. Leaders are required
to focus on making the world better with time so that employees can also feel motivated and
work in that direction. Thus, by motivating employees and giving right direction to them by
applying new approaches which are required to be implemented in this health care sector.
Human resource department of NHS has played a major role in developing working
environment better and supported the entire management to a great extent. It would have also
helped by performing different functions of management that human resource department should
perform in an organisation (West and et.al., 2014). It is necessary for the trust to build powerful
leadership and capability to endlessly improve their services so that it can be kept for the future.
The purpose is to make the entire working environment better for NHS leaders and revitalise the
1

systems of talent management and leadership development. This is being facilitated through
Faculty of Improvement initiative which includes the input of internationally recognised
clinicians to guide in the creation of improved movement across NHS.
Internal influence of leadership is that it is very helpful for employees to get direction and
they also feel motivated due to the leaders. It is needed to understand that human resource
department of organisation must follow changes for betterment of organisation (Trastek,
Hamilton and Niles, 2014). A better working environment will help in maintaining the work
system and providing a good direction to workers.
Transformational model for leadership and management in NHS
Most of the organizations use transformational leadership style in their business
conditions. Thus, to run business effectively leader want to be highly educated and inspiring that
help their employee's for doing the right things. In relate with the case study of NHS their staff
does not give their effective work performance for the reason of Staff shortage which make
barriers in serving quality services delivery. Thus, for that, their leader or supervisor follows
Transformational Leadership model that manages their performance and employees as well. This
model has four stages which are:
 Inspirational Motivation: National Health Service faces issue in their quality delivery
function that impact on their financial budget. Thus, to improve the situation and
overcome with this conflict, leader motivates their employees and support them that
increases their interest of working.
