MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, February 13, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Leadership is a process of social influence, which maximises the efforts of others, towards a specific goal. A leader is someone who brings people together and guides them towards a common goal. Leadership skills and styles may vary, but effective leadership requires much more than the ability to assign tasks to a group.

There are many different ideas as to what makes a great leader. Research published in the Harvard Business Review 2000 by author and psychologist Daniel Goleman uncovered six different leadership styles: commanding, visionary, affiliated, democratic, pace-setting and coaching. There are many differing schools of thought when it comes to what classes effective leadership, but it is apparent that there is no single definition of leadership and what works for one leader, may not work for another; depending on personality type and circumstances. However, most business professionals will agree that a leader must be able to inspire their workforce.
A recent article on www.forbes.com on 15th Jan 2015, reported the findings of a study that analysed a substantial database of 50,000 managers and how effective they were to increase company net income. The study, commissioned by a division of a Fortune 500 commercial bank, found evidence of a dramatic effect of leadership effectiveness on net income. The results showed that businesses are able to develop leaders who inspire people to perform at a higher level and thereby increase organisational productivity and profits. In conclusion, the study found that good leaders create more economic value than poor leaders and extraordinary leaders create far more value than good ones. It found that few investments will pay off as handsomely as the choice to develop great leaders within an organisation.
