Abstract

Leadership is a skill that motivates groups of people to act to accomplish a common objective. It is a process of encouraging and helping others to work enthusiastically towards objectives. Leadership is essential because it establishes a clear vision and communicates effectively with its subordinates and colleagues. With a clear vision, the organization’s direction makes the employees to realize their roles and responsibilities. For the further research areas, I suggest directions for future research areas such as the leadership transformations in the organizations, a combination with the technological changes, and another area is can be able to find out what are the new leadership skills which need to compete successfully in the digital business environment. The purpose of this paper is to describe leadership, leadership qualities, leadership skills, leadership models, the importance of leadership, and its impact on making a change to the organization’s performance.
