Application Exercise Thoughts on Effective Leadership
For me, leaders are people who possess the ability to lead a huge mass of individual. A
brief list of eminet leaders as per my opinion is as follow:
 Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.
 Nelson Mandela
 Martin Luther King Jr
 Abraham Lincoln
 George Washington
 Napoleon Bonaparte
Leadership can be defined as the art of motivating a specific group of individuals for acting
towards a common goal. Some of the most popular leaders of all time include Oprah Winfrey,
Adolph Hitler, Wanyne Gretzky, Florence Nightingale, Karima A. Velji and others. When it
comes to Oprah Winfrey h is a transformational leader and he rules by inspiring others, she
possesses the charisma as well as the confidence of influencing other individuals. She was very
passionate about what she is doing and she believes in working hard while having fun (Lin et al.,
2015).

When it comes to the leadership style of Hitler, it has been found that he used to fallow
the autocratic leadership style (Adriaenssens, Hamelink & Van Bogaert, 2017). The image
of Hitler as a meddler in military operations is powerful and persistent. He was also stubborn,
distrusted his generals and relied too much on his own instinct. The term autocratic leadership
can be defined as a leadership style where an individual possesses total decision making power
as well as absolute control over his or her subordinate. Wanyne Gretzky on the other hand
followed charismatic leadership. He never fights with his employees and always kept himself
away from the problem. Florence Nightingale herself was a true visionary, whose chief traits as
a leader was her courage, focus, advocacy, and intentional pursuits, in advancing the practice of
nursing. Like Oprah Winfrey, Karima A. Velji is an evident leader and follows transformational
leadership. He is a healthcare executive with over 25 years of progressive leadership experience.
She is highly efficient in managing conflict situations while keeping the employees encouraged
and motivated.
After reviewing the able website, it can be clearly understand that all the leaders
irrespective of their role in this society are highly determined and focused. I , offcource consider
themselves as leaders.
