Leadership – The issue of leadership and inherent persona

Introduction

The styles of leadership had continuously been review and criticised based on current issues in the world. It noted that effectiveness in leadership has to do with the perception of attaining goals. (Mahdinezhad, et al., 2013)

Does a leadership style adopt an element of success? Alternatively, it is that a leader takes several methods in various situations to be successful. Does inherent personality play an essential part of success? Most of these questions answered through historical research. However, most theorists centred towards styles adopted and how they relate them to the leader's victories.

The purpose of the research to determine when the theories of leadership applied or whether a person can be a successful leader without being identified too with a particular style of leadership, or is there a situational trigger that creates flexibility of distinct approaches to different situations?

Theoretical overview of leadership styles and personalities.

The natural inherent personality and character can be harnessed and directed to ensure an individual becomes a successful leader and overtime; he adopts an approach of flexible decision-making strategy to fit every situation at all-time rather than him accept and adapt to a specific style of leadership his entire life.
