What is the Importance of Leadership in any Organisation?

Leadership plays an important part in the success of any organisation. In the absence of effective leadership no organisation can work efficiently. An organisation is created with the purpose of achieving certain objectives through a human group; it becomes essential to control this human group.
The above-mentioned facts clearly show that the employees utilise 60% of their capability without any additional effort as has been shown in the lower part of the diagram.

The upper part of the diagram shows that if the manager uses his leadership ability and motivates his subordinates the remaining 40% of their capability can also be utilised. According to this view, leadership is the key to the success of any business enterprise.

The importance of leadership is highlighted by the following facts:

(1) Helps in Influencing the Behaviour of People:
A manager influences his subordinates with his leadership ability. He brings them under his control in such a way that they put in their best efforts to achieve the goals of the organisation. Good leaders always get good results through their followers.

(2) Helps Followers in Fulfilling their Needs:
A leader establishes personal relationship with his followers and tries to fulfill their needs. Why does a human group follow a particular person? It can be said in reply to this question because that particular person provides them security and the opportunities to earn wealth, gives them the right to work and tries to understand their feelings.

That is why people follow him. A person who takes care of the above-mentioned needs of the employees, they willingly accept him. Consequently, they work with complete dedication and enthusiasm.

(3) Helps in Introducing Required Changes:

These days the business environment is changing rapidly. In order to face the changing environment, many changes have got to be introduced in the organisation.
Since the people already happen to be under the influence of the leader, he readily makes them agree to implement these changes. In this way, the possible opposition to the change is eliminated with the strength of leadership ability.

(4) Helps in Solving Conflicts Effectively:

A leader can solve every type of conflict (employee’s vs. employees and employees vs. employer) effectively under the weight of his influence. A leader always allows his followers the freedom to express their views.

That is the reason that he easily understands the reality of the conflict, in this way, by understanding the nature of the conflict he tries to provide timely solution and minimises the possibility of adverse results.

(5) Helps in Training and Development of Subordinates:
A leader proves helpful in the training and development of his subordinates. He provides them the information about the modern techniques of work. Not only this, he makes it possible for them to be good leaders in future.
