CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
An element
of directing as a managerial function which gives motivation as well as
discouragement to workers is leadership. No organization can function
effectively with efficient leadership because it is the leader that directs the
activities of the organization (Aka 2005). A leader shows the way that others
would follow so that the objectives of the organization will be realized.
The
efficiency of management on any corporate organization is measured in terms of
achievement of the organization objectives. To achieve these objective
management needs to corporate effectively with the various activities of the
workers and this can be achieved when there is effective leadership (Ugbaje
2004).
An effective
leader is visionary courageous and dedicated to the services of an organization
effective leadership requires that the manager or supervisor should
communicates effectively with his/her subordinate. Effective leader communicate
with all workers at all times. He reviews instructions from the top management
on organizational policy and passes information to the supervisor who now
oversees the activities of the subordinates.
In the same
way the leader receives feedback from thee subordinates and send the
information to top management for necessary actions.
Another
important factor of leadership in the public sector is motivation an effective
leader is on who is able to motivate his followers to perform, to motivate
means to induce or cause an individual to act and work towards achieving a set
objectives.
Motivating
the workers means that the leader is making them achieve their aspiration in
the work place or that the reward system has led to the satisfaction of their
needs. Thus the absence of motivation means poor leadership and under this
circumstance, it is difficult to carry subordinates along, attaining the set
objectives with therefore be a fleeting illusion to be pursued.
The public
sector has earned the disrepute of performing poorly and this phenomenon is
attributed to poor leadership the government ministries, parastatals and
agencies are filled with leaders that lack vision, initiative innovativeness
and are rigid, consequently they fail to produce the ingredients for effective
leadership. To be effective and efficient these leaders have to adopt measure
that will facilitate communication, provide motivation and enhance labour
relation in these establishment.
