The critical role of effective leadership in organizations is no longer a
subject for debate. Effective leadership helps to inspire a shared and
compelling vision. It provides clear direction and a road map for attaining the
vision. It mobilizes and empowers the people to “walk” the vision. It builds
relationships that create synergy for superior performance. It also initiates
and leads change for continuously reinventing the organization not only to
surmount the day-to-day challenges confronting it, but also to increase its
fitness for the future.
Thus, all organizations need effective leadership to
survive and to also change for the better in a rapidly changing environment. It
should be noted that real leadership is not a matter of the position a person
occupies in the organization. Leadership is essentially the capacity to
influence others. It is the capacity to release and engage human potential in
pursuit of a common course. Accordingly, leaders are those who are acknowledged
by other people through listening to their ideas, valuing and following their
calls for action and turning to them for advice.
