Introduction
Understanding 'Leadership' To begin with a word, called 'leadership', a lot of ideas have been drawn out from philosophers or leaders; such as, "Ability of an individual to influence, motivate and enable others to contribute toward the effectiveness and success of the organization (House et al 2004 p 184)" or " The behavior of an individual.. Directing the activities of a group toward a shared goal(Hemphill & Coons 1957 p7)". However, leadership from what I understand after doing some research is a word that describe how much a leader understand his/her team and be able to attract the team to keep their eyes on their tasks. He sets direction, builds an inspiring vision, and creates something new. Leadership is about mapping out where you need to go to "win" as a team. Leadership is dynamic, vibrant, and inspiring. The picture from 9GAG[4] is comparing how the business runs under the leading of a leader as a boss and a real leader. if you look into the details, the difference between the two pictures is when the Boss is leading, the facial expressions of the workers are more "forceful" and when there is the leader leading, the people behind the leader has some motivation which matches their facial expression to be more optimistic,
