1. INTRODUCTION
Leadership is one of the important aspects for the success of the organization, when we consider of leadership, the
ideas of power, authority, and influence may come to mind. Messick and Krammer (2004) argue that the grade to
which the individual exhibits leadership traits depends on his characteristics and personal abilities, and also on the
characteristics of the situation and environment in which he/she finds himself/ herself. In the Australian Institute of
Management’s Leadership Survey 2019, respondents mentioned communication, emotional intelligence, and people
management as the most acute interpersonal skills for leadership –While “traditional” leadership skills like strategic
planning and business analytics are still critical for the future, the most effective leaders also rely on their
interpersonal skills to inspire and participate coworkers or the subordinates. Leadership has been the key factors in
organizational development. Leadership development is an important part of a company's human resource
development strategy. (Swanson & Holton 2001) and is inextricably linked to the profitability and effectiveness of
an organization (Kotter, 1996). (Bass 1985) viewed leadership as a transformational process that moves a follower
to achieve more than is usually expected of them to do. Transformational and transactional leadership has been

highlight the leadership research since the early 1980s (Bryman, 1992). One third of the leadership research was
about transformational and transactional leadership (Day & Antonakis, 2012; Lowe & Journal of the International
Academy for Case Studies Volume 25, Issue 3, 2019 2 1532-5822-25-3-148 Gardner, 2001).
The changing context of globalization and as the world is connected; Leadership is a process of providing proper
guidance to the followers or the subordinates to achieve the individual and organizational goals. Effective Leaders
are work on doing the right things rather than doing things right. Known American football coach Vince Lombardi
once said “Leaders are by born, not made and they are made just like anything else, through hard work.” because
most of the people in spite of their higher education and working experience can’t be a good leader. "I am more
terrified of an army of 100 sheep commanded by a lion than an army of 100 lions led by a sheep," French diplomat
Talleyrand once observed. Winston Churchill, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom during World War II, was
able to inspire his countrymen with these words: “I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat.” With
regard to bad leaders, Kellerman (2004) makes an important distinction between unskilled leaders and unethical
leaders. Nevertheless the increasing complexity and extraordinary change in the range of skills, expertise, and
required professional aspects of effective leadership, many professionals are not being effectively prepared to
principal revolution and change in diverse contexts. When we talk about leadership, the ideas of authority
responsibility and interpersonal influence may come to our mind and we constantly understand the actions of
effective leader is achieving important goal of organization. Dwight D. Eisenhower, "The ability to decide what has
to be done, and then to persuade others to want to do it," said the 34th president of the United States.” Organization
performance and success is depending on different leadership styles and practices, leaders regulate organizational
culture, values and employee motivation and retention.
As per the review, most of the organizations have failed due to adoption of unsuccessful leadership style by the
management. These organizations faced problems as employee’s are not well organized, controlled or coordinated
by the management the consequence of this approach arises from ineffective leadership style, low productivity, high
operating cost, low level of employee motivation , employee retention rate will get decreases and uncooperative
attitude of employees arise etc. and organization faced to reach its goal. It’s a prime responsibility of the
organization to appoint a leader who have qualities as integrity, accountability, empathy, humility, resilience, vision,
influence, positivity, knowledge, interpersonal skills, and good communication skill, these skills are also called as a
soft skills. the leaders who adopt interpersonal skills (soft skils) can bring out the best in subordinates through,
motivation, guidance and empowerment. Leaders can adopt leadership styles based on the situation. There are
different type of leadership styles but the study examines major leadership styles and the relationship between
transformational, transactional and participative styles and how the exceptional leaders can identify the art of
reframing leadership practices based on the situation,
“The leaders ability to effectively influence followers and other organizational stakeholders to reach the goals of the
organization” (Yukl,2005) The leadership effectiveness of performance, Yukl states that it is important to determine
how leaders influence employee to go beyond standard performance expectations or standards(Yuki,2008)
My research paper, referred about reframing of leadership practices, the concept of practicing leadership is not the
same in every organization. But as per the situation every after certain period leadership practices should be reframe
as a trait of setting the behaviors. There are many who are wishing to change leadership to become a more useful
practice for organization. Even though we incline to institutionalize the practice so that it take on an impression of
durability - as when we think of it as the occupants of an chosen workplace - if we recall, we can perceive that it has
a cultural and structural history that can be traced to an origin that is humanly constructed (Grint, 2005; Hersted and
Gergen, 2013). If we decide that leadership is required to reframe or to change, it’s easy to reframe? What shall we
do with it? Shall we proceed to reframe leadership? in this article based on primary and secondary data collection
like to mention about impact of different leadership styles on organization performance and a sound understanding
of group dynamics. Major leadership styles and the relationship between transformational, transactional and
participative styles and how the exceptional leaders can identify the art of reframing leadership practices based on
the situation and requirement to get improved outcomes for organization. Reframing and implementing leadership
qualities for conflict management, stress management, time management and the skills and processes of successful
leadership practices. Reframing and implementing leadership qualities for conflict management, stress

2. OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
i. To determine the impact of leadership style in organization and performance.
ii. To study the relationship that exists between leadership and Organisation performance.
iii. To determine the requirement of leadership qualities for the skills and processes of successful leadership
practices.
3. LITERATURE REVIEW
Harries et al (2007) is suggested that leadership style is used by an individual leader to make all people to work
together to reach a common goal according too modern Leadership styles, it can be categorized as transformational
leadership , transactional leadership , charismatic leadership, and visionary leadership(Harris, et al., 2007).
The importance of this definition is that preferably, people should be encouraged to develop not only Nature to work
but also willingness to work with full confidence. Ejiofor, P.(1989) described leadership as a social influence
process in which a leader seeks subordinates' voluntary engagement in order to achieve corporate goals. Adebakin
and Gbadamosi (1996) defined the objective of the leadership is the process of influencing and directing controlling
the activities of an organized group in the direction of the achievement of the employees individual and in group. As
a process, he realizes it as the use of non-coercive influence to outline the goals of a group, motivate behavior
towards the achievement of these goals and it helps to define group or organizational structure. He sees leadership as
a set of traits assigned to those who are believed to be leaders as a property. Leadership style is observed as a
grouping of different characteristics, traits and behaviors that are used by leaders for interacting with their
subordinates. (Mitonga-Monga & Coetzee, 2012). MitongaMonga and Coetzee (2012) consider leadership as the
manners associated with managerial behavior, which is designed to integrate the organizational or individual interest
and responsible for achieving particular objectives.
4. PERCEPTION OF ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE (POP)
Management research includes a section on organizational performance. (Richard et al., 2009). However, there is no
agreement in the literature on the standards to be used in measuring organizational performance (Bolman & Deal,
2003; Scott & Davis, 2015) The POP approach is seeking for subjective measures of organizational The literature
provides evidence for positive relationships between TFL and several different measures of organizational
performance e.g., commitment to organization (Ibrahim et al., 2014) performance to trait-based psychometric
validity (Richard et al, 2009).
5. THE STYLES OF LEADERSHIP
Leadership is an action in which one person has the ability to influence or change another person's values, beliefs,
actions, or methods. (Ganta, and Manukonda, 2014). The terminology style is roughly correspondent to the leader’s
behavior. This is the way in which the leader influences the subordinates (Luthans, 1977). Every leader has his/her
own way and style to lead the group of people in the organization. The leadership styles which mostly used in the
organization are includes autocratic, bureaucratic, leadership and laissez-faire. In the past several decades, experts of
management have undergone an insurrection in how they define leadership and what their attitudes and behavior.
They've transitioned from a traditional autocratic approach to a more creative, participatory one.
Somewhere in some of the situation, it was resolute that not everything which is classical or old was bad and not
everything modern or new is good. Instead, several styles were required for different situations, and each leader had
to know when to use which style.
5.1. The relationship between transformational, transactional and participative styles
Transformational leadership style more emphasize on developing the subordinates and try to fulfill their needs and
hear leader intention is growth and development factors of the subordinates. This kind of leadership which cause
change in individual employee and group, Transformational leaders inspire their employees to work for the

organization's best interests by using inspirational motivation. The shared feeling of honor is beneficial to
information sharing and access. (Kark & Shamir, 2002 ). Study shows that this approach brings positive change in
the followers and most of the time the motivation is higher and followers can change in to leaders. This style of
leadership is adapted in top most companies. Apple, IBM, Intel, Microsoft and many more hardware and software
companies adapt transformational leadership style.
Transactional Leadership styles are depending more on trades between the manager and the subordinates. They are
more relies about "trades or transactional management” between the leader and follower by which followers are
compensated for meeting specific goals or performance. The transactional leader will confirm the link between
performance and reward before exchanging it for an appropriate response that pushes subordinates to enhance
performance. This type of leaders are more focused on achieving short term goals and like to perform the task
appropriately this leader want to follows the rules and procedures.
Participative styles all the members are work together / participate to reach the goal participative leader employ a
democratic approach. In participative leadership subordinate are informed about the true situation, it can be
profitable or non-profitable situation. Allowed to express their creativity and valuable suggestions. The founder of
Microsoft is a participative leader, he promote the opinions of the subordinates for the team building he constantly
gives importance to the knowledge and skills of the employees. This leadership styles helps to achieve
organizational objectives efficiently and effectively. According to research survey, the results shows that most of the
employees prefer participative style of leadership

6. REFRAMING AND IMPLEMENTING LEADERSHIP QUALITIES
Leadership is defined as the ability to influence the values, beliefs, attitudes, and conduct of a group of employees.
(Ganta, and Manukonda, 2014). In the present situation reframing and implementing proper style and improvising
leadership quality is essential. Conflict management, stress management, time management are the skills and
processes of successful leadership practices. Through various forms of motivators, such as prizes or status, a great
leader can motivate individuals in the firm to learn. (Azzam, 2014). Learning patterns and continues in the
approaches of understanding the situation and subordinates requirements are the key of improvising the performance
of the organization. As we know learning does not have an end, leaders need continuous upgrading of their
leadership skills and knowledge to be competitive in the business environment (Park, et al., 2014).
Teamwork, interpersonal skills, quality of communication is one firming quality of good leadership practices.
Teamwork and communication and soft skills are the best way to create innovative ideas in order to produce the best
outcome for the organization (Maxwell, 2009). Leaders who want their organizations to change effectively should
encourage staff to collaborate and interact with one another, because this is how individuals come up with new ideas
and discover new ways of thinking. (Gilley, Dixon and Gilley, 2008).
“The underlying premise behind reframing is that a person's point of view is influenced by the frame in which it is
viewed," says Verywell Mind. When the frame is shifted, the meaning shifts, and thinking and action shift as well”
Reframing is a very beneficial skill in the workplace, even if it isn't used in therapy or coaching. It's a skill I educate

a lot of my leadership clients to use with their teams and with themselves. Reframing can help leaders settle
employee disagreement, improve problem-solving skills, and even lessen feelings of burnout or stress.
