MAIN BODY
Critically measure the deviation in business governance, leadership and management practices
around the world
Business governance is basically the distribution of right and duties among the people of the
organisation. it helps in proper decision making in the organisation and also avoid conflicts
between the management and the stakeholders so that smooth functioning can take place. If
management will follow proper rules and regulation in the organisation then it will automatically
increase its productivity. Business governance helps in setting up of objectives by keeping in
mind the social regulatory and geographical area where the company is operating. If right and
3

duties are not distributed properly in the organisation then it can create conflicts in the
management which will affect the growth of the organisation. Toyota enhance their business
activities with the help of business governance and achieve its target so that it can be at the top
position in the market if Toyota will follow a proper management system then its growth in the
coming years will high and it can achieve more success. Proper functioning in the organisation
comes from the environment which the business provides to their employees because if
employees will feel biased with the behaviour of the management then it will affect the
productivity of the organisation(Bhanot 2018).
A Leader is the person who guides its employees towards the achievement of goals.
Leader plays an important role in the organisation because leader is the one who trained the
employee so that the organisation can achieve its productivity. A good leader will always
motivated its employees towards the work and helps them to resolve their queries because once
the employees are trained well then it will help in the long term survival of the organisation and
also it will develop the skills in the employees so that they can perform well in the organisation.
A leader should always get motivated towards the task which they have to perform and also
guide other to achieve it.
Functions of leadership:
 A good leader helps the workers to perform their given task in a effective manner so that
the company cannot face any loss.
 A Leader develops confidence in the employees so that they should not hesitate while
asking their queries and work more effectively(Fonseca and Domingues 2017).
 A Leader should always create a friendly environment for their employees so that
employees can give their 100% in the assign task.
 Leader should guide the employees about the rules and regulation of the organisation and
should not make any false promises so that employees can build their trust.
 Proper coordination is very important in the organisation to achieve its target because if
the work is not coordinated properly then it will affect the growth of the organisation
 leadership comes with many responsibility which a leader has to fulfil for the
achievement of organisation goals.
With the help of Toyota production system employees get well trained and formulation of
leadership was also taken place in the organisation which helped the business in achieving their
4

target. Leaders in Toyota continuously work for the improvement of the business so that every
level of management from top to bottom can work with the proper coordination and achieve its
productivity.
In every organisation management plays an important role for the growth of the
organisation. Proper management system helps the organisation to work effectively quality
management helps the organisation to improve the quality of the services which are providing to
the customer. quality management consider the discovery of quality policy, inventing quality
planning which helps to increase the demand of the product. Toyota as a top auto mobile
industry has to plan various strategies about the services which are providing. Toyota discover
the idea of just in time inventory so that its production can be more cost-effective(Hallinger and
Kovačević 2021). Toyota decided to keep sufficient inventory to themselves to fulfil the orders
of the customers. Toyota is showing its continuous improvement from many years they deliver
best quality of products to their customer. The quality of vehicles which they provide is best as
compared to other auto mobile industry . Toyota also provides the safety control in their vehicles
to avoid any mishandling they don't deliver the product until and unless it is properly checked by
the company for the safety of the customer if there will be any complain from the customer side
then it can effect the reputation of the company. The company reputation is based on the services
which company provides to the customer. In terms of quality Toyota has always been on top it
has received many awards for the quality which it is providing to the customers Toyota follows
proper management system because of which it is on the top in terms of success across the
world. Toyota has also discover creative idea system to support its employees and value their
contribution in the organisation which will help in the growth of the employees and organisation
because if there contribution will be valued in the organisation they will more more effectively
and will give new ideas which helps the organisation to grow.
Critically measure the approaches to motivating and engaging mangers and employees
The Reason behind the success of Toyota is the handwork which there employees and
management does (Hallinger, P., 2018).In an organisation management should always motivated
its employees to towards the achievement of goals and should observe the capability of the
employees for performing the assigned task engagement of employees in the work is very
important they should work as a part of the organisation so that they capability can be increased
and they should enjoy their work employees should engage themselves as much as possible in
5

the assigned task so that they get appraised for the hard-work which they are doing and develop
their growth in the organisation(Podsakoff 2019). A manager should always keep healthy
relation with the employees so that there work can be enhanced and work proper discipline can
be created in the organisation because if employees will be happy with the assigned work then
they will be more focused on the achievement of goals as well as maintaining the proper
working environment. Motivating employees is the first responsibility of the manger In Toyota
employees are motivated towards the services which are providing to the customer so that their
market share can be increased and can develop its customer loyalty(Honarpour Jusoh 2018). The
vision of the company should be clear and accordingly organisation should guide its employees
because if the proper guidance will be provided to the employees them the environment of the
organisation will improve and skills will be developed which will increase its productivity.
Establish reflective thinking and ideas about their own capabilities and skills in order to develop
as a leader and manager.
To become a leader I will build my skills and knowledge in order to guide my employees
because if the leader will not have the proper knowledge he will not be able to guide his
employees properly which will affect the growth of the individual as well as the organisation. If I
will be a leader I will always motivates my employees and maintain a friendly relation with them
so that they can share their issue without any hesitation also they work without any stress will
increase the productivity of the organisation. A leader should always be ready for the assigned
work so that they can guide their employees accordingly As a leader I will guide the employees
about the rules and regulation of the organisation which they have to follow so that proper
management system can take place and employees should not have any conflicts while working.
As I leader I will always motivate and appraise my employees for the work which are doing for
the organisation without getting biased which will increase the effectiveness of the employees
towards the achievement of the goal also it will create positive of the leader in the mind of the
employees. Development of leader comes the development of personality because if your are
confident you can easily guide others if you have a lack of confidence you can never become a
good leader or manager which stop you from growing in your career.
Critically analyse the approach that Toyota adopted when expanding business into India.
Toyota as a leading automobile industry came to India so that its demand can increased in
the market and also its business can get expanded around the world. Customers of India wants
6

the best quality product in low price. Toyota focused on developing the quality of the product so
that people can attracted by the product and sale can be increased in the market. Due to the rise
in the fuel prices Toyota decided to develop electric cars so that fuel prices of the customer can
be saved. It will also increase the demand and market share of the organisation. Because
customers always wants a change in the product which they are using and if any new product is
launched in the market people get attracted easily which increase the profit of the company.
Toyota invent their product according to the customer requirement so that customer can easily
afford it without disturbing their financial condition.
CONCLUSION
As per the report it is observed that Toyota follows a proper management system which
helps the organisation for the growth of the company. It also provides the services while keeping
in the mind the requirement of the customer which has made Toyota as leading auto-mobile
industry in the world with the high rate of increased market share and customer loyalty.
