2LEADERSHIP- TEXTS AND CONTEXTSIntroductionA leader can be termed as one who supervises and mentors others in an organization,a community, or a political body like a state or country. The temperament of leadership isborn with the intrinsic will and perseverance to influence others towards a common goal.This essay attempts to evaluate and analyse some of the aspects and theories of leadershipthat willing future leaders may find useful and necessary to inculcate. Key Areas of Leadership The word ‘leader’ is not confined just to people with immense power and support attheir disposal; but means anyone who inspires and mentors his companions or colleaguestowards a common goal. Thus, the chieftain of a tribe or the headman of a group of colliers isas much a leader as was Winston Churchill or Mahatma Gandhi.Transformational Leadership:Transformational leadership has unfolded from the basics of transactional leadership; it hasfour additional aspects—charisma and a constructing influence showing that the leader isrevered and respected, intellectual growth, motivation, and acknowledgement of the personalgaps between workers. This leadership style is more inspirational than any other leadershipstyle and the transformational leaders shows adequate competency for engaging followers.The leaders under this style consistently work towards encouraging the fellow team membersfor achieving remarkable and outstanding results. Conservative notions about how a leadershould bully around and exploit subordinates, need to be replaced by transformationalleadership and such novel ideas (Breevaart et al., 2014).
