Training
The knowledge of importance of situational factors in leadership success
should be used to match leaders to situations.
If the situation requires a change transformational qualities in the leader
are required to focus on the changed situation. If not, look for transactional
qualities.
They may be situational factors that substitute for or neutralize leadership.
If there are, then the leadership essentially performs a figurehead or
symbolic role, and the importance of selecting the right person is not
particularly crucial.
Organizations, in aggregate, spend billions of dollars, yen, and Euros on
leadership training and development.
Recognize that all people are not equally trainable.
Teach skills that are necessary for employees to become effective leaders.
Provide behavioral training to increase the development potential of
nascent (potential, growing) charismatic employees
The concerned authority or selection committee should try to analyze the
situation in order to find candidates who will make a proper match.

Globalization
Climate Change
Demographic Shifts
Individualizations
Technology Convergence
Globalization
As globalization accelerates, the new business world will be characterized
by increasingly diverse teams and declining loyalty between organizations
and employees.
Companies will need to be more alert and collaborative to manage the
global/local divide
Their leaders will need to be flexible, internationally mobile and culturally
sensitive, and they must have strong conceptual and strategic thinking
capabilities in order to manage risk and cope with the dangers and
uncertainties associated with globalization.
II.
Climate Change
The scarcity of strategic resources like water, minerals and fossil fuels could
trigger price hikes and operational costs.
Organizations will be forced to lower their eco-footprint, adapt to rising
operational costs and restructure along sustainable lines.
Leaders will need outstanding cognitive skills to balance the competing
demands of financial success, social responsibility and environmental
custodianship, and must act as change agents, advocating environmentally
responsible business practices.

Demographic Shifts
The aging population means demographic imbalances are rapidly emerging,
leading to skills shortages.
For organizations, this means the war for talent will continue to rage.
Leaders will need to attract, motivate and retain increasingly diverse teams
and find ways to develop and promote the growing numbers of
international migrants, women and older people into leadership positions.
IV.
Individualizations
Careers are an important part of peoples quest for self-expression.
But their loyalty is more likely to be directed toward social networks than
employers.
These trends have a huge impact on how leaders and companies motivate
people.
Leaders will have to work harder at generating personal loyalty, through
accommodating employees requirements, enabling self-directed ways of
working and individualized leadership by developing relationships beyond
the direct work environment.
V.
Technology Convergence
Ignore troublemaking technologies at your peril.
Despite their lack of detailed knowledge, leaders must be open to and
advocates of visionary ideas.
They must encourage innovation and collaboration and act as orchestrators
of expertise from within and outside the organization in order to control
the potential of converging technologies.

Extroversion,
Conscientiousness,
Openness to experience, and
Emotional intelligence (EI)
Although the link between EI and leadership has not been fully explored.
With the many years of research dedicated to the trait theory of leadership,
it is widely accepted that traits do predict leadership.
However, it is more likely that they predict the emergence of a leader than
the effectiveness of a leader.
Assumption: Leaders are born
Goal: Select leaders
Limitations to Trait Theories:
No universal traits found that predict leadership in all situations.
Unclear evidence of the cause and effect of relationship of leadership and
traits.
Better predictor of the appearance of leadership than distinguishing
effective and ineffective leaders.

The extent to which a leader is likely to define and structure his or her role
and those of sub-ordinates in the search for goal attainment such as.
b) CONSIDERATION
The extent to which a leader is likely to have job relationships characterized
by mutual trust, respect for subordinates ideas, and regard for their
feelings.
Leaders who score high on the consideration factor typically are friendly,
trustful, earn respect, and have a warm relationship with team members.

which they can exercise more control.
Task-motivated leaders perform the best in situations of high control and
low control.
Relationship-motivated leaders perform the best in situations of moderate
control.

Tell Style
The telling style (S1) is directive. High task and low relationship (R1).
Group member is unable and unwilling or insecure to accomplish task.
ii.
Sell Style
The selling style (S2) is also directive, but in a more persuasive, guiding,
manner. High task and high relationship (R2).
Group member is unable and willing or confident to accomplish task.
iii.
Participative Style
In the participating leadership style (S3) there is less direction and more
collaboration between leader and group members. High relationship and
low task (R3).
Group member is able and unwilling or insecure to accomplish task.

Delegating Style
In the delegating style (S4), the leader delegates and is kept informed of
progress. Low relationship and low task (R4).
Group member is able and willing or confident to accomplish task.
The most effective style depends on the readiness level of group members.
Readiness is the extent to which a group member is able and willing to
accomplish a specific task.
Ability is the knowledge, experience, and skill an individual or group brings
to a particular activity.
Willingness is the extent to which an individual or group has the
confidence, commitment, and motivation to accomplish a specific task.
B. Evaluating of the Model (SL II)
Model represents a consensus of thinking about leadership behavior in
relation to group members.
No one style is best.
An effective leader uses all styles, depending on the situation and the
individual group member.
Model is challenging to apply SLII consistently because leaders must stay
tuned and tasks shift rapidly.
However, the model has become a basis for leadership training as the
model builds on other explanations of leadership that emphasize the role of
task and relationship behaviors.

Path-Goal Theory
Developed by Robert House
The path-goal theory of leadership effectiveness specifies what the leader
must do to achieve high productivity and morale in a given situation.
In general, the theory says a leader who attempts to clear the path to a
goal for a group member tends to find the group members job satisfaction
and performance increase.
A leader should choose a leadership style that takes into account the group
member characteristics and the task demands.
The theory is based on the Expectancy Theory of Motivation.
The following are the important parts of the Path-Goal Theory
A. Matching the Leadership Style to the Situation
B. How the Leader Influences Performance
A. Matching the Leadership Style to the Situation
The leader should choose among four leadership styles to achieve optimum
results in a given situation.
Two key sets of contingency factors are the type of subordinates and the
type of work they perform.
Key subordinate characteristics include:
The locus of control
Experience
Perceived Ability
Environmental contingency factors are:
The Task Structure
The Formal Authority System
The work group.
The following describes the four styles and their appropriate circumstances.

Directive Style
Supportive Style
Participative Style
Achievement-oriented Style
a) Directive Style
The directive leader emphasizes formal activities, such as planning,
organizing, and controlling.
The directive style improves morale when the task is unclear.
b) Supportive Style
The supportive leader displays concern for the wellbeing of group members
and creates an emotionally supportive climate.
The leader also emphasizes developing mutually satisfying relationships
among group members.
The supportive leader enhances morale when group members work on
dissatisfying, stressful, or frustrating tasks.
c) Participative Style
The participative leader uses group input when making decisions.
He or she is best suited for improving the morale of well-motivated
employees who perform non-repetitive tasks.
d) Achievement-oriented Style
The achievement-oriented leader sets challenging goals, pushes for work
improvement, and sets high expectations for group members.
This style works well with achievement-oriented team members and with
those working on ambiguous and non-repetitive tasks.
B. How the Leader Influences Performance
The path-goal theory offers many specific suggestions to leaders. Three
representative suggestions are:
i. Recognize or activate group members needs over which the leader has
control.
ii. Increase the personal payoffs to team members for attaining work goals.
iii. Help group members clarify their expectations of how effort will lead to
good performance, and how performance will lead to a reward.
