LEADING AND MANAGING CHANGE2
Introduction
Grint et al. (2016) stated that the purpose of a leader is to align with the personal
values, business success and achieve it with attaining the organizational goals. The sole aim
of leadership is promotion of new directions in business. Lewin (2016) argued that a good
leader can balance among business foresight as well as business performance. They have
vision, focus along with integrity to organize besides catalyse collaboration among group of
people.
Discussion on effective leadership
Among all the types of leadership, emergent leadership is effective as this type of
leadership can gather respect among the employees those know that the leader can show
capability to work. The group member is not being appointed as well as elected to role of
leadership. There is development of leadership over time as result of interaction with group
members (Hoch and Dulebohn 2017). Examples of emergent leader are Mark Zuckerberg and
Bill gates.
