INTRODUCTION
Organization
are increasingly challenge with many complex problem. There is a general outcry
that standard of organization are falling and output are flagging some blame
the workers for this apparent decline in organization output, a thoughtful few
think that they are due to the nature of change in all direction. Majority
blame the management for the woes in our organization; manager are not as
devoted and dedicated to the course of good output as their predecessors.
Management
as a group blames the government for unattractive condition of services, policy
implementation and poor physical facilities in the organization.
Therefore,
an effective leadership influences a group of people in a particular situation
towards the achievement of a goal or set of organization goals. The leader must
be courageous in all aspect within the organization. An organization like Simridu Nigeria limited
must have a leader who is focus and be able to defend his action and the
interest of his subordinates. He must believes in his own potentials.
1.1
BACKGROUND
OF THE STUDY
Leadership
is a social influencing process for the attainment of goals. A leader is the
most influential person in an organization
who provides direction, guides group activities and ensure that group
objectives are attained. The function of leadership persuades all organization;
a good leader therefore is one who is capable of persuading others to move
enthusiastically toward the achievement of group goals.
Alan
and Robert defined leadership as a process where one person exert social
influences over the member of a group. A leader then, is a person for the
purpose of influencing their behavior. It is safe to say that:
–
All leader have influence
–
They provide direction
–
They help in the achievement of groups
Leadership
characteristically “induce” or “inspire” other to achieve. Leadership occurs
within a specific situation, in the social setting, there is a person, a
position and a situation. Despite all that has been written about leader, there
has no consensus concerning the primary role or function of leadership.
Indeed,
the ability to lead effectively is one of the key to being an effective manager
or leader. However, the essence of leadership is followership. In other words,
it is the willingness of the subordinate to follow that make a person a leader.
Moreso, people intend to follow those who they see as providing them a means of
achieving their own desires, want and needs.
To
lead is to guide, conduct, direct and precede. Leader act to help a group or
organization achieved objectives with maximum application of its capabilities.
They do not stand behind or a group to push or shout at them, they place
themselves before the group as they facilitate progress and inspire the group
to accomplish organizational goal. Therefore, leadership is to induce or
persuade all subordinate or follower to contribute willingly to achieve
organizational goal.
