Abstract

Leadership is an important element of directing managerial functions in an organization. The power of leadership means the power of integration. Good leadership is essential to achieve an organizational goal. It is the ability to build up confidence and zeal among people. To be a successful leader, a manager must possess qualities of encouragement, foresight, drive, initiative, personal integrity, etc. In this article, I am trying to give an overview of various leadership styles and their impact in the teaching sector. This will give an idea about various leadership theories and how they are implemented in teaching roles. Hope this will be helpful to other members of our teacher community also. The idea of leadership theories will enrich the students who wish to pursue public administration, polity, and human resource management in the future.
