Leadership is one of the most salient aspects of the organizational context. However, defining leadership has been challenging. The following sections discuss several important aspects of leadership including a description of what leadership is and a description of several popular theories and styles of leadership. This page also dives into topics such as the role of emotions and vision, as well leadership effectiveness and performance. Finally, this page discusses leadership in different contexts, how it may differ from related concepts (i.e., management), and some critiques that have been raised about leadership.

According to the late Jules Masserman, American psychoanalyst and former member of the faculty of Northwestern University medical school, leaders must fulfill three functions: the leader must provide for the well-being of the led, provide a social organization in which people feel relatively secure, and provide a set of beliefs.

Theories of leadership

Students of leadership have produced theories involving traits , situational interaction, function, behavior, power, vision and values , charisma, and intelligence among others.

How were progressive leaders different from other leaders?
Q. During the Progressive Era, how did the progressive leaders differ from other leaders who were opposed to progressive thinking? How did their political views differ?
Asked by lil miss sunshine - Mon Feb 23 17:33:42 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It only takes them a month or even shorter to destroy economies and ruin entire nations. "Progressive" is just the new word for "Liberal" since they ruined that one.

How do you get political leaders to support a cause that you deeply care about? AIDS funding and drugs?
Q. I read from a book that people will interrupt political leaders campaign and speeches. For Aids epidemic years ago, demonstrators and activists threw blood stained money on the stage while Al Gore's speech. They did this several times but he just blew ift off saying...Don't you love free speech? What is your opinion or reaction to this? Any personal stories?

A. Cheap stunts will do nothing but make those politicians less likely to be receptive to what you have to say. Another thing to remember is that - to most people - you are nothing more than just another special interest group. And frequently the goals of special-interest groups are not aimed at the best interests of all. For example - in the 1980s those same aids activists who were demanding more money were also demanding that the standard STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease) control measures not be applied to AIDS. This is one of the major factors that hindered the ability of the public health agencies to limit the spread of the disease.

A. Yes, some people are powerful but not leaders. Some people misuse power and are followers E.g - I had a job where I was somewhat "a person of authority, powerful so to speak" but I am not a leader
