Introduction
Leadership is an activity of providing guidance, support to individuals so that they can
perform assigned work with utmost efficiency. It is related with bringing best out of employees
by providing them suitable motivation. With proper leadership, it is possible to develop
willingness among employees to perform a particular task. In addition to this, leadership also
helps in improving the overall productivity of work force by providing them appropriate
direction to alien the efforts (Oc, 2018). The present study is based on Waitrose which is a well-
known brand of British Supermarkets. It was started in 1904 by John Lewis. It offers food
products and acquired a significant share in groceries market of UK. Here, a reflective report has
been prepared on the influence of leadership over employees. In this, I am going to analyze how

Leadership is a quality of a person to inspire others in such a way that they get ready to
perform particular work. It is about influencing others in an efficient manner. Here, leaders set
vision, communicate it to individuals and provide them support at each and every stage.
Leadership is related with motivating workforce rather imposing work on them. In this, leaders
try to motivate employees so that they perform assigned work with willingness. For this purpose,
leaders set goals and also show the direction to employees to convert those goals into reality
(Yang and et. al., 2019). In context of Waitrose, leaders are highly effective. They not only set
vision but also inspire employees constantly to attain those goals. I personally know the
importance of leadership in development and growth of an individual. I worked in the Waitrose
for a significant period of time where I got opportunity to work under guidance great leaders of
organization. Here, leaders used to keep us motivated for performing assigned task in best
possible way. In order to bring best out of employees, they also arrange suitable activities. Apart
from this, leaders also used appropriate monetary and non-monetary techniques in order to
inspire employees. I worked in Waitrose as an executive marketing manager. I got support and
guidance of my leader constantly. They used to set vision for work force. Also, they maintain
proper communication with all the employees. They always inspire me and my other colleagues
