Our sense of the need for leadership is much stronger in times of change, increased competition, conflict or uncertainty about the future. But the need itself is perennial and indispensable. Today, not least because our awareness of change is so strong, many organisations are embarked upon the journey of trying to transform their managers into business leaders, while others are contemplating doing so and wondering what is the best way to go about it. In these turbulent times when the very foundations of organisations are being shaken, leaders need to move beyond the pessimistic predictions, the trendy facts, and the simplistic solutions. They need to turn to what’s real and what’s proven, to understand what the evidence tells us about how exemplary leaders get extraordinary things done. This paper enlightens a clear idea of understanding the leadership development and presents an idea of how individuals grow naturally as leaders in the present day atmosphere.

Abstract


Our sense of the need for leadership is much stronger in times of change, increased competition, conflict or uncertainty about the future. But the need itself is perennial and indispensable. Today, not least because our awareness of change is so strong, many organisations are embarked upon the journey of trying to transform their managers into business leaders, while others are contemplating doing so and wondering what is the best way to go about it. In these turbulent times when the very foundations of organisations are being shaken, leaders need to move beyond the pessimistic predictions, the trendy facts, and the simplistic solutions. They need to turn to what’s real and what’s proven, to understand what the evidence tells us about how exemplary leaders get extraordinary things done. This paper enlightens a clear idea of understanding the leadership development and presents an idea of how individuals grow naturally as leaders in the present day atmosphere.
