Introduction

(Leadership Definition, N.D.)
Capacity building in the workplace is like the development in one of the main way a company
devotes in labour force for the better return now and also in future. An effective organisation
depends on the competent and successful presentation of the association, while the competent
and successful presentation of the labour force in rotate, rest on affluence in the information,
skill and aptitude possessed by the workforce. (ABD-KHALIQ Z., Prioritising Capacity Building
Of Staff In the Workplace, (2018))
Visionary leadership are being driven out and inspired as to what a company can become. They
are being bogged down, which is known as the technical details. The person who follows
visionary leadership is given the tasks to move an organization into a wider way while endorsing
harmony and firmness of moving forward the company at the time of uncertainty. Visionary
leaders are typically brought in an exclusive instance in the association. There are many traits of
visionary leaders like favourable towards modernism, flexibility, tactical thinkers, smart threat
takers, expert communicators, and specialist manager, deeply alert and excited. (What Is

The leadership theory and the role will be based on how effective the theory would be on
bringing new leadership skills. The leadership skills would be based on healthcare, and the leader
should look after the problems that are faced in the healthcare department. The leader should
look after the problem that the staffs are facing out and how the leader should look after the
problems of the staff.
Transformational Leadership
Transformational leadership is a form of leadership first conceptualized by James MacGregor in
1978. It is a theory of leadership in which a leader communicates with his entire team to point
out the factors which need to be changed to achieve a better result. Designing a planned
roadmap, executing every step with ease, motivating employees and co-workers by setting up a
vision, these are the very important aspects in transformational leadership.
Transformational leadership has four important aspects, often called as the 4 I’s.
Idealized Influence(II)- In this module, the leader acts out as a role model to his team and co-
workers by showing charismatic character, taking risks and extra workload, following a core set
of values. By this idealized influence, it becomes easy for the followers to gain trust in the
leader, and hence, the whole work process runs smoothly.
Inspirational Motivation(IM)- Inspirational Motivation stands for the skill of the person in
charge to motivate his side to achieve the goal, motivates to get the work done smoothly and by
showing a charismatic and inspirational character, encourage every member of his team to be
and work like him. A transformation leader should make his team understand his vision by
explaining it to his team simply and easily, picturing the whole vision clearly so that each
member of his team can think it as his vision.

Individualised Consideration (IC)- It is really important for a Transformational Leader to
understand the needs and ability of every member of his team so that he can extract the best from

working, the leader should understand and groom him by providing one on one session, showing
him his pros and cons and motivating him to overcome the hurdles and fulfil his part of work
flawlessly.
Intellectual Stimulation(IS)- In this module, the leader creates an inspirational and creative
workplace by stimulating the intellectuality of his team members so that every member gets a
space for thinking and applying his thoughts in his work freely instead of blindly following the
rules. By engaging his team in decision-making discussions, listening to the thoughts of every
member without criticizing, a transformational leader can achieve his goal along with his team.
Strengths or the key points of Transformation leadership are-
• By following core ethics and values, it increases the moral standards among the team.
• It promotes co-operation and harmony.
• By applying individual thoughts in a collective work, it can reveal a new way to solve a
problem or getting the work done.
• It accepts the freedom of choice for team members and co-workers.
• It creates a healthy, open and constructive workplace.
Transformation Leadership can be implemented in any field of work as well as to reduce
infection rates in healthcare too. The main challenge in the healthcare sector is that it is a sector
where risk and crisis moments are very common. Workers and employees associated with it have
