CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Before considering the relationship between effective leadership and productivity in an organization one must take a vivid look at what an organization is. An organization is an entity. This is true of all business enterprises, churches, hospitals, or clubs. It can be seen as a process of coordinating individual effort toward the achievement of a common goal or objective an organization is a group of people bound together to provide unity of action for the achievement of a predetermined objective. The purpose of the organizing function is to make the best use of the organization’s resources by some appointed members known as leaders to achieve organization goal.
For productivity to take place in an organization, all human and materials resources must be coordinated toward achieving the goals of the organization and the human resources available must be motivated, integrated, coordinated by some people or a group of people who the subordinates will have return to do so as to compare performance with standard set, analyze the deviation and the reasons for the deviation.
So as to take precautionary measure known as controlling and make sure that the targeted objective is attended.
In any progressing organization there must be a pleasant and friendly relationship between the leaders and the subordinates. A wiling leader who wants success and want the subordinates to play their role on achieving the goals of the organization must adopt the appropriate styles, strategies and make proper utility of these and must never neglect the function and duties of leader.
All organization either public or private never joke with management directives at all level. Starting from the top managing directive level to least line and supervising in the organization.
There is always someone at the head of affairs of every level in the organization that the subordinates look up to some people at the top administrative level. From same time till now, other has been an increased global interest in the importance of leadership to organization being it social, business, or political. The increased interest may probably be due to the technological advancement which has impacted on human testes and fashion such that must succeed organization which is aimed at customer satisfaction must be flexible with changes in the environment. Due to these leadership itself worth consideration.
Leadership is always after influencing and directing subordinate action towards the achievement of company’s objective. It is a process existing among the follower, the leader, and other situational variable. Thus, leadership involves the leader and his subordinate. The leader gives instruction on what his followers should do and how the followers should perform the specified duties.
Essentially, leadership in his capability lacks the use of force. The leader uses the combination of his skills and intelligence quality of character and general acceptance by the followership to exert influence so that objectives are achieved.
The capability of leaders to be followed by the subordinate largely depends on his poise and charisma to leads. It highly depends on his intellect, combination of skills, quality of character and general acceptance by the followership to exerts influence so that objectives are achieved. It is inevitable to state that all management function is depend on leadership. This is because the approach of the leader and his ability to ensure the subordinates flow with him, as he provides them to pursue. Assiduously efficient accomplishment of corporate goals. The fashion out of the planning process cannot but be affected by his perception of and the needs of those who are to work for him. It must however be pointed out that while it is generally believed that leadership is about persuasion and influence.
1.2 PURPOSE OF STUDY
The reasons why this topic is considered for study is to shed light and educate all forms of organization be it a business oriented or non business organization on the importance of leadership in the management setup of an organization.
To have a proper orientation about leadership. The style and ways they can adopt for the smooth and efficient running of the organization.
More so, to know the contribution of leaders to productivity in the organization how they supervises and motivate the subordinates, how they gear them towards the achievement of organizational goals of the organization which is sometimes based on the level of productivity.
1.3 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
There is a need for further research on motivation, therefore goals is to reveal what it is that motives all employees to perform at their best and achieve optimal business result at all time. The inherent problem I have identified is that many employers have attempted several different incentive programmed to motivate their employees, yet they have not worked for everyone in the company. This is a major problems faced by employers these days due to the fact that each employer’s company is founded on the strength of its employee’s performance.
One of the traditional components of management along with planning, organizing and controlling is motivating. Many managers do different things for example: contest, performance appraisals, production, sales quotas and commission pay. All these systems are implemented in the belief that they drive performance. Some researchers think it does the opposite instead of trying to use extrinsic motivators (something outside of the work itself such as promised reward or incentives) to get higher levels of performance from people, management will be better served by studying the organization as a system. Employers demanded results. Without result the organization will not survive. Managing motivation is requirement for productivity.
1.4 SIGNIFICANT OF THE STUDY
Leadership can be defined as a process by which one individual influence others toward the attainment of group or organizational goals. Three point about the definition of leadership should be emphasized first, leadership is the influence process. Leadership con not exist without a leader and one or more followers. Secondly, leadership elicits voluntary action on the part of followers. The voluntary nature of compliance separates leadership from other types of influence based on formal authority. Finally, leadership results in follower’s behavior that is purposeful and goals directed in some sort of organized setting. Many, although not all, studies of leadership focus on the nature of leadership in the workplace.
Leadership is probably the most frequently studies topic in the organizational science. Thousands of leadership studies have been published and thousands of page on leadership have been written in academic books and journals, business- oriented publication, and general interest publications. Despite this, the precise nature of leadership and its relationship to key criterion variable such as subordinate satisfaction, commitment, and performance is still uncertain, to the point where fred Luthans, in his book organizational (behavior(2005),said that” it leadership) does remain pretty much of a ‘black box’ or unexplainable concept.
1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
As indicated earlier, our major areas of concern necessitate the examination of effective leadership in the organization. In order to avoid going beyond the scope of this project, comprehensive technical issue such as the organization environment, motivation and supervision among others will not be presented in detail.
