CONCEPTS OF LEADERSHIP
In order to become a successful, leadership requires
understanding of human nature , basic needs, wants and abilities
of people.
To be effective, a leader understand that
Peoples need security and independence at same time
Peoples are sensitive to external rewards and punishments yet
are also strongly self-motivated
Peoples like to hear a kind word of praise, Catch people doing
something right, so you can pat them on the back
Peoples can process only a few facts at a time; thus, a leader
needs to keep things simple
Peoples trust their gut reaction more than a statistical data
Peoples distrust a leader’s rhetoric if the words are inconsistent
with the leader’s action

Ethics is a body of principles or standards of human
conduct that govern the behavior of individuals and
organization.

people , especially given an organization’s

norms. Because individuals have different
concepts of what is right, the organization will need
to develop the standards or code of ethics for the
organization.
