Let us recognize the parts of "Leadership" and analyze them... What makes one leader a leader are his people. If a leader knows how to handle his or her multitude, he or she is effective. A leader can either use an iron fist, or can use the delegative method of leadership, in which the leader is working hand-in-hand with his or her follower. Leadership has has many parts to it. First of all is POWER. What kind of power the leader posesses over his or her subjects might be one of the most important things a leader can have. Power has its sub divisions too. 1. Heiarchial power (the power Paras posesses over the Nepalese people), 2. Coercive power (the one of fear--ex. Saddam Hussein when he was in power), 3. Reward power (the ability to give rewards-- ex. a US Senetor visiting Nepal) and 4. Expert Power (the expertise in the field-- ex the elected effective leaders...such as Vladmir Putin of Russia or the German cancellor whose name I cannot recall at this present moment). Well, the second part to Leadership would be influence. It can either be directive (when the followers are inexperienced or are incapable of fulfilling the task); supportive (when the followers are experienced, but are still incapable of fulfilling the task, due to circumstances when one DEMANDS for a leader) and delegative (when followers are experienced AND can fulfill the task). That defined leadership. Now what a "How to be an Effective Leader in 10 Days". I just know how to define leadership. All I know is that the basic responsibilities of a leader are "to accomplish the task and take care of the followers" the second one being more important. Doctor Bee
