Reflection on
leadership

Leadership refers to ability of a person or individual to create influence over members of
organisation in order to guide their action and behaviour. It helps to make sound decision,
developing vision, creating goals an objectives for team members. Last summer, I joined an
organisation for developing new skills and knowledge, also getting work experience. In this, my
senior managers assigned a new project which was based on improving employee relationship.
There are various conflicts occur in organisation in management and employees which create
negative impact over productivity of organisation and also results in increasing employee
turnover. The conflicts generally occurs due to various factors like cultural, language, employee
mindset and work based clashes (Bonaparte, 2019) In order to overcome of this problem, senior
managers of company assign me a project which aims at improving employees relationship
among organisation.
Leadership style is considered as a major approach which helps a person to manage large
number of workforce. I consider that it is beneficial for the company to increase the leadership
strength and management in order to develop effectiveness in functions and operations. All
major companies in the international and national marketplace should focus on various tools and
techniques that are effective in supporting company's major tasks. I understand that leadership
related functions should be managed by a team leader while considering mindset and needs of
different employees. In my project, I wanted to choose different leadership based approaches
which are beneficial in increasing strength of company. The companies in the international
marketplace should focus on analysing needs of employees in order to evaluate the best business
plan. In my opinion, if an organisation develops effective leadership style and approach, then it is
helpful in increasing competitive strength of company (Green, 2017). Most of the successful
companies in the market, prepare a leadership plan which will include the efforts of a person to
manage employees . Leadership and its functions should be essential to be monitored in an
effective manner for long term business growth. Also in the last stage of leadership strategy
preparation there is a need of proper and systematic manner. Most of the techniques of leadership
development requirement also develops evaluation with the help of professional and skilled

management. Employees of the organisations, should follow all the major instructions which are
given by management for long term development of a business.
Before start this project, I was little nervous as it was my first project and I do not much
about team members. I was also excited about this project as it is a big responsibility for me and
I want to get success for it. In order to start, this project, first I interact with my team members
and ask about their skills and area of interest. It helps to analyse different team members and
their skills, knowledge. It make me able to assign work to team members as per their area of
interest which improve quality of work and also allow them to work with dedication. . All
members of team are excited about this project which is a best thing about this project (Kang,
2019). In order to improve employee relationship, first I need to made various strategies which is
essential for purpose of success of this project. In order to improve employee relationship, it is
important for me to set right tone which helps me to communicate with employees and create
good impression about me in minds of employees. I also decided to take feedback from
employees about work, their superiors and company which helps me to understand where actual
problems existed. The employee relationship can be also improved with the help of
implementation of human relationship theory. The application of human relationship theory is
helpful in increasing harmony between employees which is most crucial for a company. The
implementation of human relationship theory is also helpful in increasing healthy relationship
between employees which increases their productivity. Human relationship theory is adopted by
many successful companies in the global marketplace to enhance the capability of the whole
organisation (MacLeod, 2019).
In the functioning of my organisation where I was held responsible for management of
effective employee relationships between workers. It was essential for me to develop promotion
in the company to develop sustainable internal environment. I promoted effective leadership in
the major functions of the organisation to develop team work. I also motivated employees by
providing them monetary and non-monetary benefits. In order to develop effective functioning of
the business, I also promoted employee relationship by developing positive culture in the
company. I will take help of my seniors and top level management of the company to deliver
best business practices (Lee, 2018). In the development of a culture, it is essential for the
company to take into consideration major need and demand of employees. I will also perform
development of working environment and workplace management in order to get best output

from employees. I will also give a major focus on performance of employees and implement best
techniques of performance management. I will also focus on teaching ethical behaviour to
employees, so that they can develop humble and polite behaviour. Skill development will be my
major focus which will be helpful in increasing strength and mental ability of different
employees. Skill development will include time management, problem solving and decision
making skills which are important for performing all the major operations of the company. Skill
development also helps an employee to coordinate with other employees and perform majority of
tasks in a systematic manner (Maruyama, and Inoue, 2020).
Organisational change is important part of the company in which it modifies its
operations in a systematic manner according to the environment. I will bring organisational
change by implementing best leadership style in the company and I will choose democratic
leadership style. Democratic leadership style is very much helpful in decision making of a
company as it includes participation of employees. The quick decisions are formulated with the
help and support of democratic leadership and it also increases morale of employees (Wu, and
Crocco, 2019). I will also take assistance of professional strategic management in order to
evaluate my employee management strategy. It is also important for me to develop business
practices in order to achieve the result within short span of time. I was also agreed with my
seniors on development of employee relationship by taking help of professors. In the
organisational life, the change models also help a company to develop at faster pace by
implementing various approaches of change. The change management also helps a company to
deliver the dynamic operations and functions which are essential in maintaining company
growth. I also understand that, it is important for a business to analyse its dynamic environment
and frame the strategy according to it. The strategic management in the organisation should be
ready to develop ethical practices that are required by the company to develop integrity in
different functions. I will develop and formulate effective planning for a fix time period and will
also evaluate different practices that are most important to be implemented in a right manner. In
the corporate world, it is major duty of management to deliver best strategic actions that are
effective in determination of objectives. There are many different companies in international
marketplace which follow a precise development strategy that is essential for organisational
growth.

I will plan for the organisational change by determining effective practices, that are
useful in business development. I will also analyse the key ideas to undergo effective
development policy which will bring desired changes in the organisation. In my company, I will
implement various famous theories like human relationship management and scientific
management theory. The scientific management theory will be helpful in management of
effective operations in a well defined and systematic manner. The human relationship theory
takes into consideration the effective approach which is beneficial in maintaining effective
relationship between employees. Most of the times, in my company I will implement various
famous models of management to rule the company. Adopting universally adopted models and
approaches will also help me in increasing the development of company. I also consider that in
order to bring desired and effective change in the company, there is a need of employee
participation. In the business environment, it is essential to analyse all the factors that are
external and internal factors which are essential for long term development of the business. In
order to survive at the marketplace, it is major duty of management to develop ethics and
integrity in the operations. In the development of a company, the management plays a crucial
role in developing ethics and integrity in employees. The development of ethics and integrity in
employees also helps a company to develop perfect relationship amongst employees. In order to
perform change planning, I will take into consideration advice of Board of directors of my
company which will help me to develop expert advice and expert views (White, Lockett, and
Currie, 2020). In order to gain the market share in a short period of time, it is compulsory for me
to also evaluate major business practices to gain sustainability to attract customers. I also suggest
to my company that it should use, information and technology with the deployment of advance
computer systems and software to overcome change management issues in a short span of time.
Most of the famous management approaches in the field of employee relationship also play a
critical role in developing harmony between employees (Takupiwa, 2019). The companies
should also use appropriate management theories to overcome employee productivity related
issues. Most of the business cases related to employee management gets desired success with the
help of strategic plan. In the business entity, change management is also developed by HR
management. The human resource management is considered as a backbone of the company to
develop effective change management techniques.
