essential role in developing the enthusiastic environment in the workplace. The good leadership
trails or the skills are responsibility for the training and development along with the modification
in the culture of the organisation. Beside this in an organisation the leadership consist of some
contemporary issues. Moreover, the issues are mention in a manner which are as follows:
Gender issues:
The leadership style is dynamic, therefore updated as per the atmosphere requirement. The
gender issue consist that how women and men leader monitor the function of the management at
working place. nowadays it is very essential issuer to highlight in the field of the leadership
(Harris, and Jones, 2018). As per the sources there is difference between the leadership styles.
The women are interactive and more focused on the participation and interactive approaches for
the leadership effectiveness. The men are preceded directional and analytics' leadership skills. It
is analysis that male leaders have good inter personnel skills as compared to the female .
Women are less orientated than men when it comes to lead or mange the elements of
management. The society give more preferences to the male over female (Huffington, James,
and Armstrong, 2018). Because of this issue the organization is not able to deliver positive

culture among the peoples working within the firm. The employees of the organisation
demotivated and not able to deliver the perfect quality of works in order to satisfy the
consumers. Due to democratic style of leading the people by the female increase creativity in the
production and deliver multiple opinions.
Cultural issue:
In the cultural issue the employees of the organisation is not satisfied with the atmosphere.
The culture consist of both positives and negative. It is the most important issue to resolve in the
organisation. Negative culture of the organization demotivate employees of the organization. The
issues are arises because the leader are not able to deliver proper ethical value to the workers.
Sometimes it took place due to feedback delivered to staff members by the mangers which
includes pros and cons. The negotiation of the asset of the company in decision-making
programme. Strict nature of the manger pressurize the employees which result in downfall in
quality commodity provide by the organisation (Inceoglu, et.al 2018) . The less empowerment
rights to the people working in the firm lead to the hesitation in taking responsibility on the
behalf of the company. The discriminating nature allow the workers to quite the job or not job
continue the job roles for long period. Furthermore, it leads to lack of coordination and
connectivity among the peoples. The bad communicational culture led to misunderstanding
among the people because of which the members' dint cooperate with the colleagues. The
dominating culture not allow the subordinate to perform the function in their own ways and not
able to innovate creativity in the production process. The male leaders generally prefer to adopt
bidding and powerfulness styles, which give the feeling of being liability to the workers.
Empowerment issue
In the empowerment leader of the organisation assign different duties to employees of
company. It leads to various issues under the leadership programme as the leader perform
various activity for the organisation. In the empowerment the organisation give freedom or
authority and skills to perform the task. Increasing the scale of competition in the workplace
among the workers. As every employee of the organisation desire to acquire adequate powers to
lead the others. Empowerment bring changes in the behaviours and attitude of an individual
person. Therefore, they do not the worker in a proper manner (Kerrissey, and Edmondson,

2020). The problems of the employees remain unsolved as the manger or the leader ignore their
complaints. When it’s come to empower the employees, the leader faces the issue of empowering
themselves or motivate themselves. Empowerment put individual in difficult situation of
decision-making for the benefits of the organisation. Empowerment bring unbalance within the
organisation which bring negativity in the workplace. Workers who are serving the company
face the dominating challenges by leaders. Sometime the manager of the organisation, misuse the
power and treat the employees inappropriate way. Many times, the responsible person of the
organisation denied cooperating with the employees of the firm. Due to excessive power the
responsible person initiate the personal frustration on the professional work.
Group management issue
It is the most common issue come under the leadership programme (Northouse, 2021). In
this issue the members of the organisation are not agreed with the decisions of the manager. The
issue arises due to the chain of members who are not prepared for the challenges allotted to them.
Lack of group management the manager face the conflicts among the people who are serving the
firm. Due to group management issue the leader face many difficulties as it is hard to
convenience every member of the organisation in a particular situation. Because of this issue the
production is also decreases as the manger are not able to manage all the functions of the
organisation. It is the most common issue come under the leadership programme (Northouse,
2021). The training and development activity are assigned to the employees is not sustainable to
the worker which lower the production of the organisation. The modification in the activity of
group people lead to the mismanagement in the organisation. The leaders of the organization
provide training to the employees which make them interactive.
Lack of accountability
Sometimes the manager of the organisation is not able to deliver proper responsibility in
the organisation. Because the manager of the firm handle lots of function at once (Offermann,
and Foley, 2020). When the manager of the organisation gets distracted from the leading role in
the firm that individual person is not able to chive the goals of the organisation. The members of
the company are not cable of solving the issues of the consumers as no one is answerable which
decrease the value of the fir. The members of the company are not cable of solving the issues of

the consumers as no one is answerable which decrease the value of the firm.The quality or
production got affected because no one is responsible for the proper guidance of the employees
along with no one is answerable.
Fear of firing
Because if this issue the employees of the organisation are not able to constraint properly got
distracted which deteriorate the performance of individual. Due to fear of the employees didn't
take any initiative or contribute in decision making which do not bring any creativity in the
enterprises. the leader is conscious about firing the employees of the organisation as they serve
the organization for such a long period. The employees of the institute make mistakes on regular
bases. The workers set their mind-set if being fired and lead to stress because for that.
Poor execution
Because of this the organization is not able to hire the right people for the right role of job
which is necessary to survive in the marketplace (Paais, and PATTIRUHU, 2020). Many of the
time the manager of the organization failed to execute the plans of action an adequate manner or
a way. The poor execution decrease the value of the brand and unable to survive in the market.
Due to poor leadership skill the employees are not become productive or not work in required
forms. The working people are not able to satisfy the needs of the organisation as well as regular
customers.

them. It is very important to resolve the issue for the benefits of the organisation. The issues can
