in the working environment of the company that motivates each individual to perform their work

MAIN BODY
Discuss the leadership and management literatures/theories
As per the viewpoint of Terina Allen, 2018, leadership is the behaviour or a style of an
individual through which they could influence the other in order to enhance their performance
and working abilities. Whereas, on the other hand management is the practice through which the
company will manage, plan, control, coordinate, direct and implement different functions within
the business in order to develop more and more profit and higher sales. Leadership needs the
1

maximum number of followers who follows them and that will figure out the influence level of a
leader (Bush, 2019). Whereas, the management is the planning and controlling different
activities through which company could gain the success and growth within the certified period
of time. The manager will perform their entire task by themselves achieve their objective by
applying their own efforts. There are some of the basic concepts of leadership are as they work
with more honesty, commitment, courage, competency and also known for the four factor as like
followers, communication, leader and situations. They themselves known their strength and
weakness and develop the skills, knowledge and experience or others as well. Whereas
management is an art of completing the different things in a systematic manner that up-raises the
working standard of the company and they are the backbone of the company as from their
contribution different function will be performed with more easiness. As per the viewpoint of
Nikita Duggal 2020, There are some difference between the leadership and the management that
are as defined as like Thinking process in this leadership is the style through which the leaders of
NHS will focus on the employees and always looks outwards in order to get influenced the
people from their working style. While Management is the process through the mangers of the
NHS would focus on the different function that are performed within the business and always
looks inwards in order to raise the standard and market value of the company. In employee
relation leaders has the strong relation with the employees as with empowers and encourages
them to perform their work with concentration and in builds the trust and more confidence in the
employees by which they could perform their task with more easiness (Burnes, 2018) Whereas,
managers are those that control the employees and try to improvise their performance and they
have their subordinates as well that further provide the information to the lower level employees
in order to maintain the complete cycle. They direct with the coordinate and perform the better
flow of information within the NHS. In Goal setting the leaders have the articulate vision and
produce the future plan for the employees by which they could gain the higher advantages in
their life. They create and build the better future of the employees that enhance the performance
level of the employees. Whereas, managers of NHS performs different operations in order to
gain high advantage from the competitive market. They also execute the better plan within the
NHS that develops the working standard of the employees. They always try to improvise the
presence of the employee that imparts more perfection and motivation in them. In Operations
leader always perform the right things at the right time and try to create the change within the
2

NHS in which the employees didn’t work for the salary only they work with more enthusiasm.
Whereas, managers always do the right things that are in the favour of the NHS and manage the
different change within the company in order to achieve the better outcome within the timely
manner. In authority the leader is those who influence the employees of the NHS and reduces the
different conflicts from the company and acts as more decisive in which takes the decision for
the betterment of the NHS and the employees (Coulson-Thomas, 2018). On the other hand
managers of the NHS use the authority and assign different duties and roles to the employees as
per their experience and knowledge. They act with more respondents and guide the company to
make the better decision for the improvement of the company. There are different theories that
show the concept of the leadership and management practices that are implies within the NHS
and these are as defines below as:
Behavioural Theories
As per the viewpoint of Ben Mulholland, 2019, It is the theory that explains the
behaviour of an each individual that are performed within the company and it includes the
complete analysis and the different consequences that affects the performance of each of the
employees. It is the theory that is developed by the B.F. Skinner who performed his work by
compare it with the psychology as from the 1930 to 1950 and until his death in 1990 this theory
remains the best theory of behaviourism that is also known as radical behaviourism. This theory
is based on the concept of stimulus response that is also termed as S-R equation. It is also known
as the behaviour psychology that is based on the learning that states that behaviour will always
get changes as per the conditions. It is a theory that attempts to understand and knowing the
different factors that affects the behaviour of employees that further affects the behaviour of an
organisation as well (McShane, 2018). There are different conditions that get changes as per the
working and outer environment that keeps on changing as per the influences of different other
factors. Behavioural believes that the behaviour of an individual will get affects as per the stimuli
reaction of the people as accords to the different actions and the shapes. This is the theory that
attempts to resolve the various factors that keep arises within the NHS as per the changing
behaviour of the employees. It includes the several impacts of the environment, behavioural and
the personal characteristics as in order to determine the behaviour of employees. The behaviour
of an employee not only get affected by the different condition in the job there some other factor
as well that affects the behaviour and that might be either personal or professional.
3

The behavioural theory promotes the values of the leaders and the managers within the company.
As the leadership style generate more values within the company that emphasis the concern
about the employees and the effective collaboration that improvise the working environment of
the company. It is the theory that also helps the manager by which they could find out or match
up the right value of the different style that is implemented by the leadership. The managers also
help the leader in order to maintain the balance relation with the employees and shown their
concern about the productivity of the company that will be generated as per the contribution of
the employees (Obholzer, 2018). Behavioural theory has a huge focus on the working style of the
leader as it is the quality of an individual that will be with that person as from their birth while
management is the quality that will be generated as per the experiences and the knowledge that is
gained as per the time.
As with the help of this theory the leaders will manage the behaviour of the employees by
assuming their conditions and then provide the adequate solution of that and then try to
improvise the performance of them. Whereas, the behaviourism theory of management is also
known as the human relation theory of management as in this the manager will address the
different behaviour of the human that changes as per the variation of different relations. Human
relation theory as it is the theory in which the manager of the NHS will make the interaction
with the employees in order to provide the best and the free environment to the employees. This
theory believes that if the company will focus on the morale and believe of the employees that
the employees will get motivated and it reflects the better performance of them. It is the
approach of the company through which they could make the better communication with the
employees by which the productivity of the company get on increases and it reflects on the
increment performance of the company. It is the theory that is described by the Elton Mayo that
is known as the father of human relation. He conduct an experiment in the Hawthorne plant of
electric company and measure the impact of the different working conditions.
Trait theory of leadership
As per the viewpoint of Kendra Cherry, 2019, It is the theory that defines that leader are
born and they have that quality to get influenced others in order to perform their work with more
perfection and traits are more suit to the leadership (Doyle, 2018). It is a theory that is introduced
by the Thomas Carlyle and it is also tied as the Great man theory of leadership. He described that
people who have introvert personality they are more timid and has less social skills and also
4

doesn’t have that ability to get lead the team or become the follower. It is also known as
dispositional theory and it is approach through which the personality of an individual will get
noticed that must get changes or effected as per the different pattern of behaviour, emotions and
the thoughts of the people. It is as known for the personality development or analysis through
which the ability of an individual will get measured that defines the power or skills towards the
accomplishment of work. Whereas, trait theory is the most important theory that defined the
psychology that further supports to indentify the personality of an employees.
It is the theory that is used for both the successful and the unsuccessful leader in order to
predict the effectiveness and efficiency of the leaders (Jena, 2018). The result will get used to
compare the potential of the leaders to assess the success and failure in their likelihood. It
provides the constructive information about the leadership approach as it could be apply to all
the people that are working within the company. Trait theory has provide the belief that leaders
are born not be create or made by anyone it is something that is related with the arts and science.
There are few Similarities between the leadership and management practices in both the theories
as it emphasis the action of the leader as they are capable of giving the solution in every
condition. As per the trait theory the leader has the sense to measure the personality of an
individual and defines that everyone has its own potential of doing a task or performing their
work. There are some difference between the leadership and management as well as like the
behaviours theory is a democratic kind of theory in which leader are free and influenced the
behaviour of an each individual as per providing them adequate training and development.
Whereas in the trait theory leader has those abilities to perform and guide the personality of each
individual that collectively improvises the performance of the company.
Evaluate the leadership development programme
There is the importance of leadership training and development for NHS as well as it develops
the behaviour, positive attitude, belief and values towards the patients and thus provides more
care to them by which they get resolve their issue with more comfort (Bigby, 2019). Effective
leadership is important for an organisation to accomplish its goals as the leaders are the one who
influence and motivate the employees to contribute to the objective of the organisation. It
becomes important for the organisation to consider various training and development programs
for the leaders so that they can effectively execute their roles. With the help of leadership
development, opportunities can be provided to the leaders for improving their morale and loyalty
5

while with the help of leadership training, abilities to communicate and encourage the people can
be improved due to which the productivity of the people and thus the organisation can also be
enhanced. The importance of training and development of leadership for NHS are as like
improved culture of the organisation: Leadership development program organized by the NHS
substantially improved the corporate culture which brings about an optimistic influence on NHS.
Leadership development also has a positive effect on the recruitment and retention of the
employees of NHS as with this the leader can engage your employees and make them feel as an
integral part of the organisation. Facilitate to identify new potential leaders: With the help of
leadership development the management of NHS can identify various potential leaders in the
organisation who has capability of mitigating various challenges in an unpredictable situation. It
also facilitates the NHS to reduce the gap between the level leadership which make the
management of the NHS capable of managing the change at different levels. Increase
productivity: With the help of leadership training, effective skills can be developed in them so
that they can give direction to the employees of NHS which will enable them to perform as per
the expectations (Kooij, 2018). Such leadership skills also enable them to identify problems in
case of uncertainty, manage the adverse situation and determine various sensible solutions that
can reduce the impact on the organisation. Contributes to ROI: The leadership development
programs enable the NHS to increase the ROI of the company as the potential leaders when take
the role of managers they take all the necessary decisions from the point of view of both leader
and managers. This boosts the performance of the employees and profitability of the
organisation. They take all profitable decisions and formulate better strategies. Improved risk
management: In the competitive world all the organisation operates which some or the other
risk which they have to manage effectively. NHS provides training to their employees and
leaders so that they can deal with such risk. The training to leaders facilitates NHS in creating a
strategic vision and developing various risk management skills so that they can add extensive
value for their business. Project leadership: With the help of leadership training sufficient
project leadership skills are developed by NHS in their leaders so that they can handle various
aspects related to the project. Such skills enable them to keep the project on track and reducing
the chances of substantial losses due to wastage of material and time (Ferreras-Méndez, 2018).
Improved efficiency of leaders enables them to boost the efficiency of the team thus it enhances
their productivity and profitability.
