Leadership Simplified-Part-2-Lead with Passion-Leadership is a Human Factor

Leadership is a Human Factor

Post the world wars, the world of Management has been
debating who is a right Leader:

· An Autocratic Leader,

· A Democratic Leader or

· A Free Rein Leader.

After some years the difference between a Boss & Leader was widely discussed, experts like Paul Hersey & Ken Blanchard gave us a Valuable Model called Situational Leadership.

Before few Years Jim Collins gave us Level 5 Leadership and John Maxwell gave has 5 Levels of Leadership, But the bottom line remains the same, it is the human factor that is respected in the Leader more than the power he/she holds.

Today’s workforce is a Knowledge force; they would like to be led and not bossed. They want their Leaders to inspire them, not to command them. They are expecting Intellectual Stimulation not just external motivation. Freedom to Initiate and Innovate are one of their prime needs, they respect a work culture where Leader stops micromanagement and gives them broader definition of the task.

Remember, your functional skills promoted you to the next level where you were designated as a Leader, but it is your man management skills that determines whether you will be perceived as Leader or not.

The Mark of the True Leadership is seen in the Human Side of the Leader

While listening, we may be trying to engage our logical brain to recall our memories and creativity for a response, or we may be accessing our emotional brain to defend ourselves against what is being said. For example, if one person talks about ways another could improve, the listener might offer excuses such as a lack of time, resources, or support. Alternatively, they may bring up personal emotions, like health or family issues. These reactions often occur while the other person is still speaking, leading to a decreased understanding and an increased eagerness to defend one’s position. During this type of conversation, the listener may appear restless, exhibiting a lack of eye contact or head nodding. In such interactions, th...
