INTRODUCTION
Organisation is defined as a group of individual who are working for the same
objective by coordinating within leadership and management. Leadership can be defined as
an art which is the main element in motivating the employee in an organisation. With the help
of authentic leadership goals and objectives can be achieved in a sequential and appropriate
manner. Similarly management is defined as the set of rules and plans which enable the
business in planning, directing and organisation business operations. As in the current
situation businesses are running at global level so leadership and management is having
different role within the business organisation. The major difference between leadership and
management is that the leadership is focused on people whereas management is focused on
processes. On the other hand leadership is focused on product or service and manager are
focused on financial results. At the time of preparing leadership program, academic theories
of leadership are having an important role. As with the help of these theories an effective
leadership program can be designed (Marshall, Coleman and Reason, 2017). With the help of
academic theories organisational task can be implemented in practical manner as these
theories are having theoretical aspects. This report includes leadership development program
of NHS academy. Along with this the report includes concept of leadership and types of
leadership theories. The major motive of this report is to develop a leadership program for
NHS so as to review the leadership and literature management. These leadership
development programs are used for managing the business and leadership range in an
effective and communicative way. Furthermore leadership theories are playing essential role
in the organisation as it helps the employees in enhancing their capabilities so that this gives
them better chance to perform their tasks in an appropriate manner which may lead the
overall success of the organisation.
Leadership and management literature/theories
Leadership is all about gaining good results in the organisation by comprehending and
maintaining belief to each and every individual so that to ensure that all the person within the
business are working with fuller efficiency and with motivation they are having clear vision
to provide benefits to organisation. On the other hand management is referred as those parts
of leadership which is engaged in administration and ensuring that all the activities is
arranged in a sequential manner. The functions which are operated by management of
financial institute are dependent upon various concepts which are related to leadership and
management theories (Dunne and et. al., 2016). As per Warren Bennis, leader are having
significant role within organisation as they consider all problems of their employee and they
eliminate risk. For instance, leaders and other authorities assist the managerial people so that
to prepare and implement various strategies which help the organisation in dealing with
complex problem and face current market challenges with critical thinking. Leadership
undertakes all the methods and procedures which are utilised by businesses and overall
organisation so as to establish proper control and power.
Roles and responsibilities: Roles and responsibilities are categorised by an
organisation so that to involve employees to operate their task in a manner in which

organisation has decided their behaviour. In the context of NHS leadership academy is
performing their operations so as to develop and uphold simple and most effective leadership
program which help them to have high skills and capabilities in their workforce. Culture and
climate are two essential aspect of the organisation which works as driving force within the
organisation (Fiaz, Su and Saqib, 2017). Every organisation is having their own culture which
is the combination of their past and present events. Culture is assisting the business in
managing all their operations and beliefs which are adapted by the business that are helpful
for the business and their operations.
Management is defined as the procedure which helps the management to lead and to
attain business goals by working with harmony and taking help from each other. (Robert,
2018). Numerous functions and tasks are performed by management so as to provide way to
employees to attain goal and get business efficiency. Process is the major activity through
which management is able to perform their tasks in a desired manner. Management concept is
defined as planning, organising, staffing, directing and controlling under which all the
activities are having some specific role. Effectiveness of the management is helpful in the
organisation as this is emphasised on end results due to which all the activities can be
completed in such a manner that it undertakes all the sequence and works are prioritise
(Johnston and Marshall, 2016).
Theories of leadership: Transactional leadership style undertakes the methods under
which leaders try to promote agreement by their followers and try to finish the tasks by
persuade people to adopt different manner in their working style. Under this leadership style
two approaches are adopted by leaders which is rewarding or punishing. This theory is
helpful for the leaders to stay motivated for a longer period. Transactional leader performs
their task and follow all the value and orders so this gives them to act in an appropriate
manner. In order to perform strict operation this leadership style is adopted and sued by
management so as to complete those tasks in a proper format. With the purpose to implement
appropriate theory of leadership and management, numerous programs are arranged by the
organisation (Cleaver, 2017). In current scenario educational institutions are performing their
operations at global level so in order to assign task, roles and responsibilities to individual it
is essential that thy choose for appropriate leadership theory so that individual may attain
their goals in an attentive manner. In the background of NHS, their main motive is to render
the best leadership throughout the world and to take advantages of their partners. With the
help of direct approach and arranging programs with this approach skills and capabilities of
their employees can be enhanced. Present environment is dynamic in nature so as to adapt
changes in a positive way it is required that the leader develop plans in such a way that their
experience can be gathered and then any kind of strategy is implemented. With the help of
past research which were took place at international level, it is determined that a global
leadership style is somewhere able to trace perceived problem and this quality is developed
within a good leader (Slack and Brandon-Jones, 2018). At the same time this leadership is
able to recognise those real life problems and those can be solve by leaders who is having
experience. Furthermore it is observed that people thinks that leaders are born but this
statement is incorrect, leaders are normal people only but they have learnt skills so this
