MAIN BODY
Understanding about the concepts of leadership and management along with different leadership
theories
According to the Susan, 2019, leadership work as an art that is used for motivating the
group of persons for managing and completing all task in positive manner (Bolden, 2016). Along

with this leadership is mainly designed for guiding and directing the persons to match with
demand and needs of company as well as employees. This governs that leadership is also related
with overall performance of company. Effective leaders are those individuals that develop and
enhance overall productivity of organisation (Bush, 2018). It also determines that there are
various task and operations are accomplish by management and skilled workforce but to retain
them for longer period leadership plays an essential role for organisation. Management refers to
complete and manage all task according to engagement of team, groups and different individual
within a company. Whereas, leadership defines that all task are managed and differentiate from
leadership to manage them as per disposal bases. Leadership undertake different aspect that is
communication, inspire, motivate and communicate primary skills that lead to gain successful
results for an individual as an effective leader. This is also work as quality of leaders that they
are born and enrich in capabilities which is used for completing all task in minimum time period.
Leader plays different role in the business like it helps employees to accomplish their personal
goals. On other side, it assist organisation to manage task and operations as per decided strategy.
From the perspective of Nitesh Kumar, 2017, Management is defined as a process which is used
for accomplish organisational project in a systematic and effective manner. Along with this
managers are also known as an effective body of knowledge that complete all work with in a
disciplined manner. They follow and monitor all practices which lead company to improve
overall productivity of organisation. This is also used by management for making effective
decisions that is used to gain long term benefits and it leads the organisation to use proper
resources which enhances efficiency of workers that is used to relate all activities with aims and
objectives of the company. The management process works to gain and desired those objectives
which are decided by top authorities of company. This is also beneficial for increasing efficiency
by which manager assign all roles for minimising production cost. As per this management also
states that organisation are able to manage and complete project and work at global level. This
determines large number of workforce is controlled and coordinated by the employees of
organisation (Connolly, James and Fertig, 2019). Along with this it also work as the
coordination among all factors that attain company objective in minimum period along with
ethical approach. This also refers that all task must manage the work engaging large number of
employees to gain desired objectives with in the company. This also refers the science by which

managers manage and organised there work by directly engaging employees efforts towards
organisation goals.
From the viewpoint of Nikita, 2015, leadership and management both are different from each
other. Leader and manager are recognised as those persons which are managing and changing the
work performance in term of overall process. Managers are those persons which defines to
accomplish and delegate all roles and responsibilities that perform operations and functions for
welfare of organisation (Eacott, 2018). Along with this managers are also able to complete all
work as per high quality that motivated and communicated all individuals for completing all task
properly. Along with this leader plays the role to implement effective communication among
workers that is used for completing all work with coordinate approach. Along with this it is used
for making effective communication that is used for working with coordinate approach. It also
refers that it is essential for leaders to manage all work under guidance of organisation. This also
determines that company is managing work with employee benefits. Employees follow all rules
that are related with business enterprise and it is also essential for leading better results that
inspire the management to gain long term results. With better results it is easy for management to
communicate roles and responsibilities according to organisational work and policy. It is also
responsibility for managers that employees must inspire all persons for leading organisation task
within disciplined manner. Duty of a manager is to provide job description to employees to
complete their work in minimum time period. On the other side, the role of leader is to manage
organisational task and operations through using their authority rights. This results all operations
are managed with behaviour of employees. Example- Leaders of the business organisation are
concern to develop positive approach in organisation that leads them to complete all work in
effective manner. Along with this it also defines that leaders are more passionate and interested
for solving organisational issue (Ellis, 2018). Furthermore, some similarities between leaders and
managers are also beneficial to complete all work effectively. According to perspective of Kotter
it is stated that both manager and leader perform role for better improvement of organisation.
Both of them follow different perspective and personalities as per there role and responsibilities.
Managers are those persons that build and implement those actions which are stable in order to
insert changes in the organisation. Leadership acquire roles for acquiring, generating or building
trust among individuals. It also defines both of them is used to generate positive environment
which imparts believe and manage to promote better stability to complete all work in minimum

time period. It is also used to improve morale of employees by appreciating their efforts to
complete and manage work capabilities to accomplish desired results with available resources.
Therefore, with both of results it is easy for organisation to enhance their goodwill in the market.
With the perspective of Ben, 2016, behavioural theory of leadership it is not mandatory
for all individuals and leaders that they work with more efficiency. Past information state that
leaders are born not made but as per the current situations it is analysed that individuals adopting
essential skills which is improving their overall performance in effective manner. It is one of the
major reasons that make leaders more efficient and effective. Along with this it is analysed that
there are various traits present in market that is used for managing and performing work
activities of leaders (Field and Brown, 2019). There are different logic presented which show
performance of leader that such as charms-tic personality it is leading management to complete
all work in minimum time period. This also refers that management is concern to select those
pathways through which organisation perform its work by attracting more number of persons. In
context of management perspective this inherent quality in team members that is also beneficial
for becoming a great leader. There is the different way and behavioural methods are present
through which individual always try to complete their work with in task oriented approach.
Moreover, leaders always follow behaviour of all persons by initiating, clarifying and organising
all task in order to gather right information and leads management to complete all work in a
systematic manner. Each leader follow different approach to manage work as per situation and
project. There is some extraordinary conduct of the innovators as like the assignment situated in
this the creators must work with the fair structure and it incorporates all the diverse perspective
according to the description. They never keep away from the human conduct and consistently
attempt to get into the understanding so as to give the better arrangement. It surrounds the
distinctive conduct as like starting, explaining, sorting out and the get-together of the data in
efficient manner. Individuals situated pioneers are those that puts forth an attempt to satisfy the
need and request of the representatives (Fought and Misawa, 2016). They generally energize,
tune in, watch and sofa the different as like the guide and gives the particular way to follow the
achievement and advancement (Timm, 2019). Participative authority is the style where the
pioneer could generally show up in each kind of condition and rouses the others with more
consistency and precision. It incorporates the correspondence, joint effort, designating,
empowering and gathering the input so as to ad lib the working methodology. Business as usual

pioneers are the one that think as same as the trough and have a basic methodology wherein they
attempt to fulfill the necessity and request of the workers. It incorporates the age of the criticism,
sensible dissemination of the undertaking and has the absence of adaptability and accordingly
adjusts the assignment in suitable way (Jacobsen and Andersen, 2014). Aloof pioneer that is
otherwise called the devastated pioneers that has the different conduct and teams the various
needs according to the inclinations and attempt to make the compelling connection with all the
pioneers. It comprise the various standards as like tarrying, dodging, self-conservation and
furthermore having the absence of correspondence. There are some domineering pioneers that
concentration to give the better and compelling result of their group and attempt to expel the
weight from the representative at the pinnacle times. They shows the various practices as like
didn't with the exception of the reasons, creating outright cutoff times, achieve the objective,
significant spotlight on the profitability, didn't tune in and lean toward the inputs. There are
numerous different methodologies too and with that all the pioneers were attempt to illuminate
the various circumstances according to the shifted conduct of the workers.
According to the view purpose of Kendra Cherry, 2019, transactional leadership is an
administrative methodology of the authority in which the pioneer centres around the distinctive
job of the association as like supervision, aggregate execution in the gatherings (Rice, 2018).
This sort of pioneers has the solid have faith in the worker and give the particular assignment and
in the wake of achieving or in the middle of gives the prizes or the discipline so as to build up the
adequacy of the errand. There are some essential presumptions in the value-based initiative that
has accept that production network will stay ineffectual if the presentation of the worker is ideal
and progressively explicit. It grants greater lucidity inside the organization and in this all the
representatives are increasingly cleared about their objectives and aspirations and attempt to
tackle the distinctive result as from their encounters and the information (Liljenberg, 2015). The
discipline and the prizes are generally significant so as to persuade the worker and they likewise
need the better order that is essential and measure objective of the pioneer so as to impact the
representative. The subordinates additionally guarantee that the desire for the undertaking will
get got in term of viable results. In this the pioneers help that rewards and the censured are
especially important for the worker as it builds up the better execution and more abilities will be
built up that moreover serves to amplifies the profitability of the legislative bodies. It is an
approach which acts as the methods that is used to improve the growth of business for generating

positive changes among organisation by motivating employees and employers to gain desired
results and it also leads to manage work through offering all work possibilities that leads
management to deal with consequences which is impacting on goals as it create challenges for
company. Sometimes leaders face challenges to perform their work in effective manner as it
generates problems to manage all problems within similar time. So to deal with all this
management focuses to lead longer results that concern transactional leader to complete task in
unique and creative manner.
Evaluation of the leadership development programme from the point of NHS Leadership
academy
Training and development for the leadership works as an effective process by which leaders are
trained for developing their skills and abilities that is used for influencing more number of
persons (Liu, Wu and Goh, 2016). There are various benefits offered by the training and
development department of NHS. Motivation, self-development, inspiration and adopting
positive attitude are key aspects for organisation that leads individuals to perform all work with
more efficiency. In the present scenario, there are various alternatives exists that design actions
to complete projects as per leadership development programme. Along with this it is also
essential for NHS to complete all task as per leader and top authorities ideas. All programs
includes different identities that leads management to complete their work in a pre-decided
manner. This also includes better incudes by which leaders are able to demonstrate positive value
about leadership program by formulating positive value in organisation products and services.
Leadership training and development alos are also have some own and direct importance that
leads management to generate belief, value, attitude and behaviour that is offering extra benefits

responsibilities which are performed by them is unlike. This also emphasis that with right ability
