SECTION I1.Introduction:Leadership is one of the basic necessities of an organization that makes it run, and thrive in acompetitive environment. A leader and a group define the relationship in the organization that helpsin the construction of a healthy and thriving environment for the organization to grow and persist inthe market (Landauer, 2007). As a result the impact of a leader in a group is significant and it can goboth ways – having a major positive effect on the organization or the drastic negative impact on theorganization. Hence, from ancient times, since the times of Vedic literature, to Plato, to the present,the concept of leadership and the right characteristics of a leader has been debated, theorised andsought, so that the negative impact of a leader can be minimised and the positive impact takes holdof an organization, or group, and directs it (Brennan, 2011). Since leadership has such a large impact on the organization and its members, there needs to be aconstant check on the leader and the actual impact that the said leader is imparting on theorganization. The leader once appointed needs to be monitored in a way that the leader worksaccording to what the company expects from him and sees him to do in action. The leader’sworldview, ethics, ways of communication, and the very image of the leader should be taken intoconsideration while the relationship of the leader and the group is being monitored in a way that theinput of the leader in the group should not drastically affect the group and the way it is supposed torun (Taylor, 2008). A toxic leader is a leader who leads the group or a project to the end, only leavingit worse off or negatively than what it was before. Hence, the significance of a leader and the impactof the leader in a specific group activity or on a specific project should not be overlooked butregarded and supervised by experts in very analytical manner (Larsen, Monarchi, Hovorka, & Bailey,2008).This purpose of this project is to undertake a complete study of how leadership impacts anorganization both positively and negatively so that the organization can safeguard itself and monitorthe kind of leaders and leadership qualities that they expect and have chosen to be part of theirorganization. The Research proposal is centred on the kinds of leaders and the type of leadershipthat has been documented and theorised by psychologists and sociologists and how these can affectan organization in their specific ways (Zuffo, 2004).The project is organized in a specific way which is as follows. The Introduction will be part of SectionI of this project. This shall be followed by Problem Statement, Research Objectives, Project

Justification and the outcome that could be expected from the end of the project. This constitutes ofSection I of the project. Section II consists of Conceptual Framework, Research Hypothesis andMethodology. Section III of this project consists of the Organization of the project, the Gantt chartand the estimated Budget required to carry out the project. 2.Problem Statement:While the concepts of leadership are still dubious and ever-changing, there are certaincharacteristics that a leaders needs to have is self-defined and necessary. The character of the leaderstrikes out more prominently than that of the group since the leader defines the characters of thegroup, categorizes them, defines their role in the working of the organization and directs the entiregroup to the benefit of a project or an organization as a whole (Evangelopolous, 2011). Hence, thenature of impact of a leader on the group needs to be understood and studied closely.The root cause of the faulty leadership is not only the leader in itself but the methods in which theleader chooses to work. A leader’s worldview, interactive skills, and ability to integrate a group anddirect it to a singular objective is as necessary as is the methods in which the leader communicatesthe views and directs the group. Hence, it is a necessity that the correct leader be first chosen byletting the leader act in controlled environment, along with a proper training that should beimparted on the leader and an expert observation that would make the leader eligible for becomingthe one who leads the organization (Kulesza, Weaver & Friedman, 2011). Leadership is a naturaltalent but it is a talent that needs to be honed and trained to the specific of the organization. Thus, this project deals with such a very important issue and part of an organization, and tries tostudy and analyse the concepts of leadership and the impact that the leader is putting into thefunctioning of an organization and how it seems to be running after the impact has been placed onit(Taylor & Bedeian, 2007). Also, the various documented methodsthat have been used and chosenby leaders of the past and the successes that could come out of it, depending on the organization,will be researched upon in this document. This is done so that no organization could falter due topoor leadership qualities, and so that leaders know what is expected from them in the future.3.Research Aim:The research is aimed at identifying the impact of leadership on an organization, the nature of theimpact that the leader has on the organization. The research also aims at looking into the nature ofleadership and how that could affect different organization in different manners and identifying theproblems of faulty or inadequate leadership qualities and the way that those problems could be
