Main Body
I am the leader of Siemens company in operations project leaders where I am performing as a
leader of work to complete the project on time. My responsibilities is to mange the project overall

approaches to complete project effectively. The leadership approaches which I used in project are:

the work into new ideas and creativity to complete the project task. This style states the
involvement of employees in decision making of projects and employees are welcome to put
their suggestions and decisions for better working and achieving the ultimate goal of project.
This leadership style assist me to know the new innovative ideas which really help me take
decision in some places and result me effective returns and save my project cost and time. My
subordinates are motivated towards work as this decision are being in accordance with their
values and ideas with some strategies which are followed by management and top authorities of
Siemens group (Bannon, 2020).

my project I used to work with my team members and enough them to known their ideas and
suggestions on completing the work of project. I used to encourage employees to build the
thinking level of mind to complete the work in cost effective manner. It inspire others to build

project on time and minimize the cost of project of Siemens. This leadership style I followed at
a time of decision making of operation task which need to complete with team work and proper
assistance under the guidance of project manager.
However, some management style which I usually followed by to manage the thinks between company
on site projects. The resource which are used to complete the project effectively. The management
approaches I used are:

where employees are motivate to work together and to achieve the task. This approach is used
to complete task together and working efficiency is increase to accomplish project on time. The
understanding of each other relationship and importance help company to achieve the goal in a
result if employee working performance and their efficiency of working. This also leads to
solve problem within time limit and decision making is being done effectively (Oluwafemi,
Mitchelmore and Nikolopoulos, 2020).

major focus of management is on decision making only. This approach he me out on certain
questions like How, what and why arises in problems. This are certain challenges which I faced
during the project and assist management to overcome the problems. This approaches are being
used further that precedes decision and all things which followed on decisions only.
 Communication center approach: This approaches is used for effective communication between
employees and management. It help me through communicating with my team through proper
channel and working connecting with each pother formally and informal organizational. This
help me out with connecting to all employees with the real problem that are faced by them
during projects while management issues are being resolve through connecting with each other
and increase the trust and loyalty in employees toward Siemens (Hudson, 2021). This approach
help me quite effective as in connect with each employees and known there problems and issues
that are faced and having problems with management and polices company implemented on
employees. However, this approach also help me with getting the information and all details

Hence, this are some of main approaches which I used in my project of Siemens. This approaches help
