As a senior manager, you have been asked to undertake a review of current management practices in terms of motivating staff to be more committed and enthusiastic about organisational aims and improving performance. It is clear to you that staff lack a clear vision of organisation mission.
You have decided to determine whether the managers are affective in providing sound leadership and motivation to help achieve desired outcomes. One of your first tasks is to identify which leadership characteristics and style would best suit the organisations and staff needs, starting with a comparison of leadership style applied in different organisations so that you can identify relevant characteristics. You decided to undertake a critical analysis of leadership characteristics and styles, you make a proposal to management about which particular style of leadership would be most effective to implement. Your analysis will also include a review of motivation theories in order to determine which leadership style would have a positive impact on staff motivation.
