Leadership and management theories
There are several concepts and theories of leadership and administration like as

utilising by the management of NHS. The brief description of some of these concepts is defined
as under:
Situational leadership theory- This concept is formulated by Paul Hersey and Ken
Blanchard to exertion according administration and organisational performance. This hypothesis
indicates to that organizer who accepts guidance method accordant to circumstances and the
improvement level of their team members. In NHS, by utilising this concept, the administration

there are diverse technology acceptable in human resource which can be associated with the
teaching and enlargement sessions and the required suggestion that can be fulfilled with the
assistance of this concept. Different kind of remunerations in term of incentive, dividends, salary
increment, endorsement and awarding of certificates after the teaching session can be related
with the education and improvement performance and these remunerations will offer a positive
outcome (Buchbinder, Shanks and Kite, 2019). If this concept is accepted by NHS then the
trainer i.e. the employees will demonstrate more attention in teaching and growth programs that
are organised by the company. It will also assist in devising improvement in the traits,
competencies and knowledge and providing knowledge about new things like technology etc.
which will help employees in executing their assigned work and task in developed way or

evaluate worker’s performance and remunerated them according their execution which also helps
4

in maintaining individual. As when workers are salaried for their superior execution in term of
gratuity, endorsement, inducements etc, then they experience encouraged and demonstrate their
faithfulness regarding venture.
Theoretical model of Talent management
