Leadership

Abstract: Leadership connotes a willingness to stand as an example, as well as to guide and, or, influence others in attaining a goal. Effective leadership begins with the same strengths that can be found in a healthy personality structure. Developing leadership skills is, from this perspective, the same process as attaining a strong sense of personal identity and worth. Style of leadership is often the defining characteristic of behavior observed as specific to leaders. The competencies of successful leaders are understood to be adaptive coping responses regulated across many different spheres of individual functioning, cognitive beliefs and expectations, emotional reactions, and intentions that may impede goal attainment. This 5 page paper examines the many definitions of what leadership is and how to predict a potential leader and, or situation. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
