Fundamental of LeadershipEssay Preview: Fundamental of LeadershipReport this essayLeadership is a concept that at times can be vague and ambiguous. And is not an easy subject to explain. Various interpretations of leadership exist, each providing a insight in Leadership (Gill 2009). So what is the exact make-up of leadership? It has been described as a concept that means different things to different people so can be applied in many different ways (Sternberg and Vroom 2002). So to generalise leadership consist of power relationship between a leader and followers and leadership can be view as “a process whereby an individual influence a group of individual to achieve a common goal”. (Northouse 2010)
In conclusion, I hope this entry will provide a more complete (and also better) understanding of the philosophy of leadership to those learners who are interested in being effective in Leadership.
The fundamental part or core of Leadership is the concept “authority”, or control.
I think I will share some of what I learned about this concept in this article to give you more insight into whether it has relevance to Leadership or for the students that want to be better leaders.
I would like to emphasise, that these concepts are subject to change, but that they can still be applied.

1. Introduction
In this essay I will discuss some of the core principles that we usually find in philosophy. Here I’ll be focusing on four of the core Principles. I hope we’ll find some ideas that you feel are central for the development of some of these Fundamental Principles in your program. I’d love to hear suggestions for some of these Core Principles, and make them your core Principles of Leadership.
1.1 An Example of a Key Principles of Leadership
There are four key Principles
– The following five principles define the core values of our profession as
“We should be leaders”, “We are the people we aspire to become” and “It is up to us to lead”.
– “We should not fear failure” and “Success is based on being an absolute team leader”
– “We only care about our own goals of becoming a team leader”, and “We must always be open-minded”
– “We believe in the people that we serve and don’t believe there is no other way forward”, “We should not be afraid to experiment with new ways of doing things”, “We should always believe that we have great strength, and that there are ways to change everything We do not take for granted!”, and “We must never hesitate to take risks. It is up to us to make those risks. Our goal is to do the right thing!”
– “I will always be responsible for the people I support”, and “Sometimes it feels important to have a role model for

Over the years various theories have emerged which help give a clearer insight into Leadership. One of the earliest models to emerge was the trait theory known as “The Great Man Theory” which suggests that certain individuals are born leaders due to personality traits. Stogdill (1948, 1974) cited in Northouse (2010) conducted several researches into this concept and identified that traits were positively associated to leadership and identified several characteristics, these included intelligence, alertness, insight, responsibility and self-confidence to name a few. The “Great man Theory” due to centuries of empirical research, has shown how important major characteristics are used towards effective leadership. Nevertheless, one major criticism is the lack of application, as individual personal attributes are relatively stable; hence traits are not transferable, so this theory is not considered useful in the training and development of leadership (Northouse 2010).
Another leadership approach which is widely used as a training tool is the style approach. This concept suggests that a leader portrays two types of behaviours, that being “task behaviour” where an approach to leadership focuses on supervision of group members to obtain consistent work method and accomplishment of the job and the alternative being “relationship behaviour” which focuses on the social and emotional needs of the individual within the group. (Blosi et al 2007 pp. 654) The style approach proposed to explain how leaders could apply both behaviours to influence individuals towards a common goal. A popular explanation can be found in Blake and Mouton (1964).Leadership Grid (Figure 1)
(Figure 1)One of the major fault of the style approach is that it is not seen a refined theory providing a neatly organized set of perception for leadership behaviour. Some have suggested that it is more a framework used as an indication for a particular leadership style. (Northouse 2010)
Another leadership approach gaining greater popularity than the management grid is the situation approach which focuses on the leader in the situation (Gill 2009). A popular model pioneered by Hersey and Blanchard (1969) which relates four leadership styles – directing, coaching, supporting and delegating. The model fits between leaders characteristics, followers attitudes and behaviour and situations in terms of task. The crucial factor being that the style of the leader and the work group situation can be matched (Gill 2009). Leadership style are measured via a set of questionnaires which asses the leader ability and is a useful tool in helping leaders learn different style across different situation. However critiques have deemed the questionnaire biased in favour
