Leadership at Work Place

[Jasz]

Leadership is a very broad topic, which can be difficult to define. We know what it means to be a good leader, but how do we define leadership?

The simplest definition of leadership is the ability to motivate others. This definition may seem obvious, but it's worth noting that when viewed through the lens of some other definitions, it becomes much less clear-cut. For example, someone who inspires their fellow employees might not be considered a leader at all, or at least not in the same way as someone who leads by example and inspires employees through their actions.

Leadership is about getting things done; it's about being effective at what you do, and making sure that your employees do their best work.

For example, let's say that you're working on a project with three other people. You're responsible for organizing all materials related to this project — from people who need more information about it, to those who will be doing the actual work on it (or who will have access to important documents). In this situation, your job would involve finding out who needs what information (and when), figuring out what each person needs in order for them to scale through in their tasks.

Personally I feel leadership is also about making sacrifices. When things usually goes wrong, they do not blame the workers or does under the leader, rather it is the leadership they blame. Let's take Nigeria for example, everyone blames the government for not bringing the positive change they promised, though they are right but they also fail to understand that a single government cannot bring about change, rather it is the combined effort of not just the government but also the people. Which means for change to take place, we all need to change individually, but everyone blames the government alone cause they are the leaders. Therefore leadership is making sacrifices to ensure they get the desired results
