CONCEPTS OF LEADERSHIP

KRISTINE A. RILLERA
 ❓
WHAT IS
LEADERSHIP
 LEADERSHIP…
• The leader tries to influence the behavior of
individuals or group of individuals around him
to achieve desired goals.
• Leadership is a dynamic process, which
deserves study. It is a relational process
involving interactions among leaders,
members and sometimes outside
constituencies.
 What is leadership concept?
• Leadership concepts encompass the styles, traits and
principles of different approaches to managing a team of
employees.
• Essentially, leadership concepts are based off of various
theories of management, and these traits serve as a
standard for effective managers, supervisors and other
positional leaders.
• Additionally, leadership concepts drive the creation of
theories of standard management styles and behaviors, and
are often inclusive of traits such as personality and
character, initiative, motivation, influence, decision-making
abilities and other principles that form the basis of many
integrated leadership styles.
Types of leadership concepts

• Honesty and integrity

• Ability to resolve conflict
• Two-way communication
• Adaptability
• Self-awareness
• Empathy
• Vision
• Diplomacy
 Honesty and integrity
• Honesty and integrity are two key
traits that fall under trait leadership
theories. Individuals who are honest
and trustworthy make effective
leaders, as these traits often relate
to acting with the best interests of
their colleagues, teams and overall
organizations.
 Ability to resolve conflict
• Strong conflict resolution skills are
necessary to perform effectively in a
leadership role. This leadership concept
is situational in nature, requiring leaders
to approach problems directly,
collaborate with their teams to create
solutions and evaluate the outcomes of
their problem-solving.
 Two-way communication
• This two-way communication provides
leaders with valuable insight from diverse
members of their teams while they offer
constructive feedback and mentorship to
their staff. This relationship-building
concept reflects relationship leadership
theories, which focus on building strong
work teams who achieve goals together.
 Adaptability
• Capable leaders develop their adaptability,
which is necessary to interact with others in
different situations. The ability to adapt your
management style, approaches and strategies
to a given situation reflects situational
leadership theory. Additionally, strong leaders
who are adaptable to different situations are
highly successful at networking, building
motivated teams and keeping their teams
engaged.
 Self-awareness
• Self-awareness is a trait that is necessary for
any professional role, not just leadership
positions. Leaders who understand their
limits, know when to seek support and have
experience with regulating their emotions
and reactions make effective managers and
supervisors. For instance, controlling your
reactions, managing your emotions and
understanding what you are capable of are
all traits of strong and effective leaders.
 Empathy
• Building relationships with coworkers, team
members and others in the workplace
requires understanding, seeking common
interests and actively making the effort to
learn about each individual on your team. This
creates trust, which will lead to higher job
satisfaction since employees are comfortable
and confident in their leader.
 Vision
• Leaders with vision reflect trait leadership
theories where innovation, creativity and
the ability to initiate and influence change
are essential concepts of managing a team.
Trait theories encompass vision as the
ability to motivate, inspire and engage
others, and leaders who exhibit these
visionary traits are often highly successful.
 Diplomacy
• Interacting with tact, speaking with intent
and using communication strategies that
demonstrate ethical and professionally
moral behavior reflect behavioral
leadership theories. These concepts of
diplomacy include the skills leaders need to
navigate the workplace as both a team or
department manager and their boss's
employee.
 LEADERS
FUNCTIONS
Leadership is the art of influencing
the behavior and performance of
others for the achievement of
common goals. As a leader, a
manager has to perform various
types of leadership functions. All
activities of the organization
totally concentrate on the
functions of the manager.
What are the three 3 functions of a leader?

1.) Leaders need to have clear goals

and objectives;
2.) They need to motivate their
followers and provide them with
direction;
3.) They must support their team
members in order for them to
succeed.
 1.) Leaders need to have clear goals and
objectives
• Setting goals help leaders stay focused on
what truly matters. Being a leader,
setting goals equals having a bigger
picture, a vision that he or she wants to
get to. When you set the SMART goals,
you have a bulls-eye that they know to
focus and prioritize, keeping your world
in order.
 2.) They need to motivate their followers and
provide them with direction

• The first thing a leader needs to

realize is that in order for people to
be motivated, they need a sense of
ownership. The best way for leaders
to do this is by providing them with
opportunities for empowerment.
3.) They must support their team members in order for them to succeed.

• Leaders are responsible for their team's

performance and they need to be aware of
how their actions affect it. Leaders must have
effective communication with employees,
know when to take risks and when not to take
them, and have appropriate expectations for
both themselves and others. These qualities
will help leaders create the right environment
where everyone can succeed.
“To be a good leader, you need to
embrace these 3 roles. As you have
probably experienced already,
leadership is multifaceted and complex
but by understanding the basics of what
it means to lead successfully, you can
put yourself on the right path for
success.”
WHAT THE LEADERS
MUST KNOW

Sam Songcuan
The best leaders exhibit certain traits that make
them hugely successful. While a leader’s actions
may be scrutinized at all times,
there are qualities that make leaders stand apart
from the rest. The successful leader knows to
apply the traits that have made
other leaders strong. What has made other
leaders strong is that they know, what they know
and what they need to know.
 Every successful leader needs to know the
following:
1. Make effective decisions. 
Great leaders are decisive and proactive. They
maintain preparation and stay well informed on
every issue so they’re ready to make even difficult
decisions on the fly. To be a great decision maker
requires building consistent sources of good
information, organizing that information in a way
that allows you to access what you need to know
and connecting the dots where you need to.
 Every successful leader needs to know the
following:
2. Skillful problem solving.
 Recurrent problems are often symptoms
of deeper issues. Quick fixes may seem
convenient and smart, but they usually
solve only the surface issues, wasting time
and resources that could be devoted to a
real solution.
 Every successful leader needs to know the
following:
3. Identification of opportunities.
 Opportunities are all around us. Successful
leaders know how to identify them early—
not through some mysterious gift but by
devoting time and effort every day to
tracking and analyzing trends and
tendencies in their organization, their
community and their industry.
 Every successful leader needs to know the
following:

4. Credible leadership style.

To be credible as a leader, you need to be
able to adapt your approach when
necessary—but it has to be consistently
authentic, something that grows out of
your identity and values. Equally important
is consistency between your
leadership and your own actions.
QUALITIES AND TRAITS
OF A GOOD LEADERS
Leading a team is no easy task. Just look at some
of the most inspiring leaders, like Arianna
Huffington or Rosalind Brewer.
Despite the hard work, there’s something so
inspiring about a leader that empowers their
team. Good leaders are self-aware,
communicate effectively, delegate work,
encourage strategic thinking, and motivate the
team to do their very best.
.
1. Empowering others should be one of your most
important objectives as a leader. Your job is to help your
team learn and succeed. That starts with daily
motivation, relationship building, showing respect, and co-
creating solutions to problems when they arise.

2.Focuses on team development

Sharing your wealth of knowledge is just one of the many
traits of strong leadership. A good leader not only develops
themself but also helps others grow. This could be in the
form of trainings, lunch and learns, or even co-creating
solutions to problems with team members.
3.Communicates effectively
Communication is a key piece of any successful team,
especially as it pertains to great leadership skills. There is a
fine line between too little and too much, but it’s always
better to err on the side of too much. A lack of good
communication skills can result in poor performance or
lack of organizational clarity.
4.Shows high emotional intelligence
Emotional intelligence is the ability to control and express
your emotions, as well as handle interpersonal
relationships. Why is that so important in the workplace?
Strong leaders inspire and guide others rather than direct.
This means it’s crucial to be empathetic toward teammates
so they feel comfortable and open around you.
5. Possesses problem-solving skills
Of all the essential leadership qualities, having problem-
solving skills is one of the most important. Team members
will likely come to you about problems that need solving.
It’s your job to be prepared with strategic advice for
whatever comes your way.

6. Respects others
Respect is something everyone deserves—whether you
have 30 years of professional experience or three. Showing
others respect can help create a healthy team dynamic
based on mutual respect.
7. Prioritizes personal development
Personal development is an important part of career
growth no matter where you are in your professional
journey. Developing your skills can help you lead
better and, by default, help your team feel secure in
their work.

8. Encourages strategic thinking

Leaders are constantly looking for ways to keep their
team and organization moving forward. This can be
anything from internal processes like roadmaps and
technological advancements to external factors
like SWOT analyses and product offerings.
9. Actively listens
Being a leader means listening more than speaking. It’s
your job to pay attention to organizational problems and
your team members’ thoughts in order to become a
changemaker.

10. Delegates work

Most of us have had first-hand experience overcoming
the challenge of delegating work. There’s a fine line
between letting your
team take on additional responsibilities and letting them
take all the responsibility.
A good leader knows that delegating work can help grow
their team’s skill set and keep projects moving forward.
11. Takes accountability
While it’s necessary to let your team take
ownership of projects, that doesn’t mean you’ve
given up all accountability for their work. It’s
important to support your team by taking
accountability when things don’t go as planned.
12. Shows deep passion for their work
The most successful leaders are the ones who are
passionate about what they do. To put it simply,
an executive role doesn’t
make you a leader. Your knowledge, passion, and
teamwork are what make you a leader.
13. Is a visionary
A visionary is a rather broadly defined term,
though you tend to know it when you see it.
Visionaries can see the end result
before anything tangible has been created.

14. Cares about others

Caring about others is different from respecting
others. The biggest difference is showing you care
versus saying you care.Both respect and care are
needed for building trust and empowerment on
your team.
15. Stays up-to-date on trends
These days, you have to be tech-savvy and stay up
to date with new trends to deliver innovative
results. From new software capabilities
like business process automation to AI and more,
staying ahead of the curve separates a good team
from a great one.
16. Is adaptable
When you’re in a leadership position, you’re the
first to know about challenges. You’re also
expected to be one of the first to
respond. But your response should be logical and
thoughtful, not impulsive or based on emotion.
17. Stays open-minded
Open-mindedness helps you to see things from
different perspectives. Like all good leadership
qualities, becoming open-
minded doesn’t always come naturally. It’s hard to
view situations or team members without our
own unconscious biases getting in the way. But
open-mindedness can be developed over time.

LEADERSHIP

Lorraine Gazmin
TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP
• Transformational Leadership is the most
popular theory of leadership today.
Transformational leaders are the one's who
"transform " groups or organizations. They
focus on followers; motivating them to high
levels of performance, and in the process,
help followers develop their own leadership
potential.
 Four Components to Transformational
Leadership
1. Idealized Influence (II) - The leader serves as an
ideal role model for followers; the leader "walks
the talk," and is admired for this.

2. Inspirational Motivation (IM) -

Transformational leaders have the ability to
inspire and motivate followers. Combined these
first two I's are what constitutes the
transformational leader's charisma.
 Four Components to Transformational
Leadership
3. Individualized Consideration (IC) - Transformational
leaders demonstrate genuine concern for the needs and
feelings of followers. This personal attention to each
follower is a key element in bringing out their very best in
efforts.

4. Intellectual Stimulation (IS) - the leader challenges

followers to be innovative and creative. A common
misunderstanding is that transformational leader's are "soft"
but the truth is that they constantly challenge followers to
higher levels of performance.

 GUIDELINES IN
BUILDING A TEAM

Angel Joyce Poquiz

 Guidelines in Building a team
• a high performance team involves more
than just randomly assembling a group of
talented individuals. For a team to be
truly effective, its members must unite
with the same vision and be motivated to
bring that vision to life. They must share
clear, measurable goals, and be
committed to each play their part in the
overall success of the group.
 Here are 10 key steps to building and maintaining a
strong, cohesive and effective team:

1. Define the purpose

Clearly define the purpose of the team, including
the overall outcome it has been brought together
to achieve. What do you want to create, improve
or change? What is the purpose of each person’s
role in the team? Providing a clear, inspiring
vision sets the foundation for successful
teamwork, and helps guide the direction of the
group when they face challenges and decisions.
 Here are 10 key steps to building and maintaining a
strong, cohesive and effective team:

2. Assemble the team

High performance teams are comprised of
individuals that passionately embrace the vision,
believe their contribution is meaningful and are
motivated to give their best effort. All team
members should trust, respect and support each
other. Select members with complementary skills
and abilities, who can bring a diverse range of
viewpoints and ideas to the table.
 Here are 10 key steps to building and maintaining a
strong, cohesive and effective team:

3. Determine the goals

4. Once the team is established and united

behind a shared, compelling purpose, the
next step is to break the vision down into
smaller, manageable goals and tasks.
Outline the required tasks in a schedule,
with agreed deadlines, milestones and
responsibilities.
 Here are 10 key steps to building and maintaining a
strong, cohesive and effective team:

5. Set expectations
6. To ensure that each member
understands what is expected of
them, define a standard of conduct
for the team.
7. Monitor and review
 Here are 10 key steps to building and maintaining a
strong, cohesive and effective team:

8. Regularly review the group’s

performance through team
meetings and one-on-one catch ups
to ensure that progress is being
made.
9. Celebrate and reward
 Here are 10 key steps to building and maintaining a
strong, cohesive and effective team:

10. Make the time to regularly recognise, reward and

celebrate both team and individual performance. This
will help to build morale and bolster the motivation of
the group to continue their hard work. Find the most
appropriate way to celebrate team milestones, such as a
personal ‘thank you’ at a team meeting, an email copied
to senior managers, or a team lunch. Ensure that
recognition is consistent, and that the method you
choose inspires and reinforces the team members to
continue their positive contribution to the team’s
progress.
Thank you for
listening!
