CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
One of the basic ingredients of all good and roleive social organizations and. human groups is leadership.
Even in the family the father must be up to the task of tasking the lead of his wife and children. Little wonder that good leaders have found way had to find.
Leadership begins when a man or a woman discovers the purpose for his/her life, which creates a passion and for which cause others are inspired to follow voluntarily. It is an attribute of the mind that enables a man to task himself to appreciate a problem, proffer solutions, and more him and the group or society forward.
It is no wonder, therefore that many have lost hope when it comes to finding good leadership. It is clear that people expect to their leaders to be competent and to make honest efforts to try to improve things.
It is true that some leaders have achieved a measured of success. A rural can usually count on the respect and support of his subject if the brings them a reasonable measure of peace and secures living conductions.
However, if people lose confidence in him for any reason, someone else may be sitting in the seat of power. the earlier conception of leadership tends to border on two major ideas about how leaders emerge in groups or organization. first is the “Great man theory of history which assigns more event in history to the activities of great leaders.
It is a known fact great man of history only assumes power and authority to lead others by virtue of their leadership capabilities. That was why leaders like Hite Napoleon and De Gualle who influenced world history were “Great man” Model leaders.
Early studies on leadership believed good leaders are born with some traits; therefore, one should be able to identify those qualities possessed by roleive leaders and assume that all persons who are endowed with these traits would be roleive leaders. For example the Greek Philosopher, plate, was among the first to suggest that great leaders were born with their greatness.
Therefore, leadership is the process of influencing others to work willingly towards an organizational goal with confidence and Keenness.
The essence of leadership followership. In other words, it is the willingness of people to follow that makers a person an roleive leader.
Moreover, people tend to follow those whom they perceive as providing a means of achieving t heir own desire, want and need. As a consequence, we can see that leadership and motivation are closely interconnected. By understanding motivation, we can appreciate better what people want and why they act as t hey do.
Leadership may be associated with the building blocked that relate to people such as communication and social skill, personal drive ability to motivate, honesty and integrity, innovation inspiring trust, intelligence, knowledge of business, deviance interest in other and then orientation. Management is generally used to describe the wide range of influence that bring about improved capability and performance for individual and organizations (Characterized institute of personnel development, 2002).
Leaders are people who make change to happen. Most leaders lack the most commonly desired characteristics of leadership, inspiration. This is something most people look for at work, which is often absent from the management.
A good leadership is understood as a atic process which is distributed across the whole organization with a good leadership between leaders and followers at all levels, rather than rust concentrated in the behaviors of these in most senior leadership position. Most people use the terms “leader” and “manager” inter-changeable.
Their mission is to ensure that the organization achieves specific objectives by people who are energized and excited about the vision and direction.
1.2 STATEMENT OF STUDY
In our society, most organizations both large and small hardly function roleively. Even when they strive some of the leaders lack the require skills for efficient management for productivity.
