Oh dear, another HR talk…

And we have to talk about fluffy stuff like leadership…

And I have so much to do…

What is leadership?

• Leaders are viewed as charismatic, held in high esteem and almost a source of admiration.

• They are people who envision the strategies to attain long-term goals, align people by communicating the mission to them and ensuring commitment to it.

• The leader also motivates and inspires people by means of appealing to their needs, values and emotions so that they keep working towards the desired mission.
