INTRODUCTION Leadership is a research or a skill related to the ability and capacity of the individual personwhich has required to guide or influenced the followers. For getting success and new opportunities,one should have leadership skills. Leaders influence other employees for doing work effectively andto maintain loyal and trust worthy relationships with each other (Selznick, 2011). The qualitiespossessed by the leader are attractive personality, behaviour, effective management skills,interpersonal skills, values, proper vision, etc. For an entrepreneur, leadership helps in managingthe work of employees and and achieve the objectives of the business in more effective manner.The qualities possessed by the entrepreneur are dissatisfaction from the present situation, takingadvantages of unfair advantages, etc (Aaker and Joachimsthaler, 2012). Monitoring and controllinghelps in achieving objectives and goals of the organization effectively and efficiently. Various kindsof training are provided by the organization for improving the leadership skills of employees as theyknow their importance of growth.This study has based on the differences between various leadership models, the areas inwhich leadership theories and styles are applying context in leadership operates, various leadershipapproaches, formulation and implementation of ethical leadership, analysis of ethical leadership,description of cognitive skills, problem solving skills, communication skills and self-managementskills (Hargreaves and Fink, 2012). At the end, the whole study will concluded which will definethe role of leadership for an entrepreneur. TASK Distinguish between differing models of leadership (trait and behavioural model)Leadership models guide companies to improve their performance, behaviour, etc forachieving the decided objectives and goals. Different companies use different models for improvingtheir working environment. Chhokar, Brodbeck and House, 2013, has asserted that “Leadership is acontinuous and dynamic process and by analysing the effective leadership models, organisationscan achieve their objectives effectively ” (Chhokar, Brodbeck and House, 2013). Similarly Raelin,2011, has said that “Use of leadership model in work processes depends upon the types andactivities of the company” (Raelin, 2011). On the other hand Ciulla, 2014, has demonstrated that“Use of inappropriate leadership models, theories and approaches results to big loss to theenterprise” (Ciulla, 2014). In respect to these statements, companies need to analyse their currentsituation and as per the obtained outcome they should use appropriate model for improving theircurrent situation. 3
Walumbwa, and et.al., 2011, has found that “Leadership models also depends on the type ofleadership which the company is using i.e. task oriented leadership or people orientedleadership”(Walumbwa, and et.al., 2011). On the other hand, Kalshoven, Den Hartog and DeHoogh, 2011 it has given more emphasis on the behaviour of leaders by stating that “the leadershipmodels used by the enterprises helps them to select particular leadership style for achieving theirgoals” (Kalshoven, Den Hartog and De Hoogh, 2011). Similarly, Avey, Wernsing and Palanski,2012, has concluded that “The Four Framework Model uses political framework, human resourceframework, structural framework and symbolic framework for suggesting leadership behaviour inthe particular situation ” (Avey, Wernsing and Palanski, 2012). For example, at the time of structuralchange of Virgin Group, structural framework is followed by the company for effective outcomes.On the other hand, Eisenbeiss, 2012, has declared that “for motivating, guiding, empowering, etcfor the team members human resource framework is more beneficial as compare to otherframeworks”(Eisenbeiss, 2012). Similarly Kim, and Brymer, 2011 has researched that “One goodleader such as Richard Branson who is a founder of Virgin Group has stated that with the help ofhuman resource framework, it can increase the participation and support of employees” (Kim, andBrymer, 2011). In respect to this, Sir Richard Branson is one of the famous leaders who usesleadership model for creating fun with work, proper communication, increase concentration, etc.In contrast to the above statements Ruiz, Ruiz and Martínez, 2011 has asserted that“Managerial Grid model is formed by the four level which are Authoritarian, Country Club,Impoverished and team leader ”(Ruiz, Ruiz and Martínez, 2011). Similarly Walumbwa,Morrisonand Christensen, 2012, has stated that “the focus of managerial grid model is on people,their task and relationship with the other team members ” (Walumbwa, Morrisonand Christensen,2012). For example, Hotel Marriott uses this model to grade their employees to check theirperformance. On the other hand Loi, Lamand Chan, 2012, has said that “the model does not giveemphasis to the internal and external constraints and situations occurred in the organisation” (Loi,Lamand Chan, 2012). Similarly Derue and et.al.,2011, has explored that “For handling the situationand circumstances it is better to apply situational model rather than managerial grid”(Derue andet.al.,2011). In favour of this statement, Moran, Abramson and Moran, 2014, has been found fromhis research that “Leader using situational model is the one who considers behavioural change as aprocess rather than an event” (Moran, Abramson and Moran, 2014). With relate to these statementsit is found that, effectiveness of situational leadership model depends upon the guidance, directionand support provided by the leader to their employees. For example, Jack Stahl, president of Coca-Cola (1978-2000) and CEO of Revlon (2002-2006) is considered as a situational leader as he usedto apply strategies according to the situations and this approach always gave him best outcomes. 4
