DISSERTATION ON LEADERSHIP
Chapter 1 Problem and Its Background

(A) Introduction
A leader can be referred as an important stakeholder of an organization or an institution,
who guides the sub-ordinates or the followers to the developed goals and objectives through
effective skill, knowledge, and motivation development process. It is also important to mention
that effective leadership style adopted and implemented by the leaders can help an organization
to create effective positive energy and enthusiasm, within the employees to meet the developed
organizational goals and objectives quite significantly focusing on the organizational culture, as
well as vision and mission of the particular organization. a leader needs to go through different
considerations, as he or she needs to understand the emotional intelligence, physical energy, and
motivation level of employees in order to enhance effective adoption of leadership style, which
may positively reflect in the workplace performance of the employees. Apart from this, it is also
true that different types situations within a workplace need to be assessed and examined properly
in order to ensure significant strategy development process. Effective leadership strategy
development and execution process always depends upon effective interpersonal communication
process, interpersonal relationship development process, and significant listening process. Most
importantly, an effective organizational leader needs to have significant team management and
employee motivation skills by having the ability to understand the emotions and needs of
employees or followers within an organization.
Leaders are highly responsible for the personal as well as professional development of
employees or the followers. In an addition, it is also important to mention that the leaders need to
ensure transparency and ethical considerations within the leadership strategy development and
employee management process in order to ensure better interaction with the employees and other
sub-ordinates (Harris, 2009). It is also important to mention that the leaders also ensure
individual personal as well as professional growth through the adoption and execution of
effective leadership style. Most significantly, the leaders also can grow professionally through
effective interaction with the sub-ordinates and followers.
Effective as well as successful organizational leaders also want to maintain a string.
Skilled and diverse workforce as it can help the leaders to ensure effective knowledge
management and collaborative workplace performance. Alternatively, diverse workforce helps
the leaders to ensure flexible training, support, education, and performance management process
for the employees. The employee-centric as well as visionary leaders also want to take care of
employees needs, satisfaction level as well as companys objective collaboratively.
It is highly important to accept that there are several leaders in this contemporary era,
who loves to deal with innovative, self-motivated, and self-directed employees. It is true that
employees can be either self-motivated to perform effectively, or skilled but lazy to perform
(Harzing, 2014). In these cases, it is the situational as well as visionary leadership style that can
help a leader to bring enthusiasm in each and every within the workplace to perform effectively.
Alternatively, it is also vital to mention that different types of personality traits need to be
considered in effective adoption and implementation of appropriate leadership style. Successful
leaders always encourage the followers to take self-responsibility to meet the developed
organizational goals as well as objectives. Apart from this, effective visionary and situational
leadership style helps that leaders to motivate the employees and sub-ordinates to focus on risktaking ability development process. Ultimately, the self-directed and visionary leaders also want
that the employees should have the ability to generate innovative ideas and lead individually.
It is also essential to acknowledge the effective as well as successful leaders should also
have the ability and skill to understand the importance and impact of external sources and system
on the workplace environment of an organization. The understanding level should have a strong
co-relation with the motives and intentions of the internal stakeholders of the particular
organization that can help the firm to meet the developed objectives quite significantly. It is the
major responsibility of team leaders to make a string balance between the external system and
internal aspects to ensure best organizational fit.
It has already been discussed that the leaders need to focus on some important trait and
characteristic aspects in order to justify the job role. Apart from above mentioned traits and
attitudes, it is also important for a leaders to ensure some important factors, such as followerleader interaction, value addition, commitment, care for other individuals within the
organization, humanity, integrity, transparency, mercy, beliefs, and equality. These aspects may
help an organization to ensure a strong relationship between the management and employees,
without having any conflict within the workplace environment. These values are the seven
Beatitudes found in Matthew 5 and are the base of the virtuous theory of Servant Leadership
(Keely, 2001).
The capacity of a person to cause a group of people to voluntarily contribute their efforts
towards a common goal is one of the simple definition of leadership. Effective leadership
depends upon efficient interpersonal relations and sensitivity to the good of the organization. A
leader should be motivated to lead, be capable of making best use of talents, skills of its officers
and the membership the human resources of the organization. An organized team or an
organization must have leaders. Leaders provide guidance and directions on the organizations
efforts without leaders; the organization could not function effectively and efficiently.
Leadership can be referred as an important as well as interesting human resource

management approach that needs to be considered by the higher management level as leadership
is referred as an important approach that helps an individual to motivate and influence a follower
or more than one follower to achieve a developed organizational goal. There are many leadership
styles which researchers have proposed, however, there is no leadership style that fits all (Burns,
in Abbasialiya, 2010). There are common, operative and proficient values or traits of a leader:
knows how to inspire, motivates, and directs activities to help achieve the organizations goals
(cited by Amanchukwu, et. al.).
Characteristic, attitude, value expression, emotional intelligence, moral capability, and
self-awareness are referred as important leadership traits. Day, Harris, and Hadfield studied 12
schools in England and Wales which focused on heads who were deemed effective by the Office
for Standards in Education (OFSTED). They concluded that good leaders are informed by and
communicate clear sets of personal and educational values which represent their moral purposes
for the school (Morton, 2009). The leaders possess the following qualities: respect for others,
fairness and equality, caring for the well-being and whole development of students and staff,
integrity and honesty (Greenfield and Ribbins cited from Gronn and Ribbins, Leaders in Context:
Postpositivist Approaches to Understanding Educational Leadership;
http://eaq.sagepub.com/content/32/3/452.abstract; retrieved 08/31/2016).
Dynamic Leadership
Some people are born leaders, others are thrown into a situation and expected to lead. So
what is the difference between a leader and a dynamic leader? Dynamic leaders are persons with
good characters, know the difference between right and wrong and always try to do what is right,
someone to look up to and admire, who set good example for everyone, and someone who make
the world a better place.
Dynamic leaders know that conflict is a natural part of working in groups. Dynamic
leaders are generally self-directed leaders. In dynamic leadership style, the leaders are practically
oriented with the handling of conflict management and other types of issue addressing processes
(Rowley, 2010).
Dynamic leaders know that conflict usually doesn't go away by itself. Conflict is a natural
part of working in groups, because different people have different ideas and viewpoints.
Dynamic leaders always help the individuals to control their emotion and anger before giving
any statement or before making any decision or strategy as it helps to bring effectiveness in the
developed strategies.
Dynamic leaders use peer power in positive ways. They use peer education to make a
difference. Peers have power! Young people depend on friends for information, advice, and role
models.
Peer educators generally utilize positive as well as informative attitudes to assist other
young individuals integrated with any task or organization. It is highly important to state that
such educators used to collect and gather appropriate data as well as information about the
challenges that may hamper the overall workplace environment. Alternatively, they also train
other individuals regarding addressing of the challenges and make use of the used resources quite
significantly.
Dynamic leaders help solve problems through peer education. Peer education is the
process of providing information to, teaching, or instructing a person or group equal in ability,
age, rank, and/or qualifications; for example, teens teaching teens. It is highly essential to discuss
that educated peers try to listen to the other peers in any debate or argument. However, the
dynamic leaders used to take some important approaches in order to motivate the young
individuals. These approaches are selection of an issue or a challenge, which is vital for an
individual, reorganization of the challenges as well as analysis of the required information, and
educate other individuals about the particular challenges by the use of adequate and appropriate
data and information (Ardichvii & Yoon, 2009).
Dynamic leaders never get feared or feel nervous regarding any complex situation. They
always love to take challenges. Most importantly, dynamic leaders have the ability and tendency
to lead an entire team from front. Apart from the identification of the challenges, the dynamic
leaders also help in giving appropriate solutions to the problems.
A dynamic leader has the ability to stand alone within the crowd and lead the individuals
within the crowd significantly. Moreover, it is highly important to focus on the relationship
development process in order to gain success within the workplaces. Dynamic leaders love to
meet the developed organizational objectives through the development of healthy relationship
with employees as well as top level organizational management (Beugelsdijk, 2008). Leaders
can't be best friends with everyone. There may even be people in the group that they don't
especially like. Dynamic leaders are also similar to the participative leaders as the dynamic
leaders are referred as good listener similar to the participative leaders. A successful leader needs
to listen to the team before any strategy development or decision making process as it
significantly helps in the development of different types of strategic management approaches that
can enhance significant relationship development and team building process.
It is one of the important characteristics of the dynamic leaders that they used to develop
healthy and trustworthy relationship with the employees by giving credit to their jobs and good
workplace performances. It has two advantages. First of all, it strengthens the relationship.
Secondly, it helps in effective employee motivation as well as performance management process.
Apart from the above mentioned characteristics, it is also important to discuss that the
dynamic leaders significantly know about enhancement of group dynamic and team development
process. Moreover, the dynamic leaders always help the individuals to make them understand
about their responsibilities within the team to achieve the developed organizational goals.
Alternatively, the dynamic leaders also take care of the needs and motivation level of the
employees (Chen and Haung, 2007).
Dynamic leaders know how to share the leadership and allow members to contribute their
skills and take the lead also.
Dynamic leaders bring people together and enable them to work through teamwork which
means that the organization shares a common ideal and embrace a common goal regardless of the
differences and diversity; they strive shoulder to shoulder, confident in one anothers faith, trust
and commitment. In the end, teamwork can be summed up in short words - believing in each
other (Shivers, 2011).
Despite the fact that there were numerous studies conducted on the various leadership
styles, the leader-researcher finds the study unique for reason that is based on his story on
leadership on different organization in the academe/education sector, in the his religious
affiliation, in the community where he is living, and in the industry where is practicing his
personal traits and professional skills.
(B) Background of the Study

Leadership can be referred as a particular approach or a systematic process in which an
individual or a group of some individuals are guided, trained, and motivated by a particular
individual to perform well within the organization or society to meet the developed goals
(Linsky, 2012).
Relative to this, the leader-researcher is an instructor teaching business, professional
education, and IT & computer subjects in the academe. He is also an executive and member of
different industries and professional organizations and a servant-leader in the religious and social
community.
He is been practicing and performing various responsibilities and leadership capacities in the
education, religious, social, and technology sectors which could be a qualification of Dynamic
Leadership.
The leader-researcher would like to find out if the description he cited about himself
qualifies him to be a Dynamic Leader, therefore, he submitted himself for evaluation from
subordinates (employees/staff). This evaluation required him to prepare an assessment-tool that
contains and describes or enumerate a Dynamic Leader under two major categories: personal
traits and professional skills (Sadler, 2013).
According to Richard R. Ramos, building relationships during life is one of the most
important things we can do both personally and professionally. There are four important aspects
on leadership and relationship. These are leadership can be referred through influence that
comes through strong relationships, and relationship decides the influences amount or volume,
10
and influence as well as relationship determines the efficiency of the individuals ability to
manage or lead.
Together, we are on a leadership journey, a journey to become more competent
individuals, efficient managers and Dynamic Leaders. This quest involves sharing unique
experiences, learned principles and fundamental leadership lessons. This deliberate personal
development is the reason the leader-researcher is writing and devoting his time to this
dissertation (Caucci, 2006). This is what will make more Dynamic Leaders and increase the
chances of success in new roles and challenges.
(C) Statement of the Problem (SOP)
Assessment on the practice of Dynamic Leadership of the leader-researcher by his
employees/staff from education, religious, social, and technology sectors was conducted which
output was used as the basis for a proposed model on Dynamic Leadership. Specifically, the data
gathered were used to answer the following problems:
1. How do selected employees/staff from education, religious, social and technical areas
assess the personal traits of the leader-researcher in terms of self-awareness; open-mindedness;
empathy; interpersonal relationship; and persuasive attitude?
2. How do selected employees/staff from education, religious, social and technical areas
assess the professional skills of the leader-researcher in terms of technical; oral and written
communication; decision-making; creativity; and organizational development?
11
3. Are there significant relationship between the personal traits and professional skills of the
leader-researcher based on the assessments of personal and staff from education, religious, social
and technical areas?
4. How do selected Dynamic Leaders describe their personal traits and leadership skills?
5. Based on the findings of the study, what Dynamic Leadership Framework or model can be
proposed?
(D) Hypothesis
The following hypothesis was used and tested at .05 level of significance or margin of
error.
Ho: There is no significant relationship between the personal traits and professional
skills of the leader-researcher considering the assessments of personal and staff from educational,
religious, social and technical areas.
(D) Limitation of the Study
The study is focused on the correlation between the personal traits and the professional skills
as factors for Dynamic Leadership. It involved the total number of 76 employees and staff under
the supervision of the leader-researcher from the four sectors, specifically 20 respondents from
the Technology, and 18 from the Education, 20 from the Social and 18 from the Religion sectors.
These respondents were a combination of 52 males and 24 females. Furthermore, the study
involved another group of respondents who were composed nine (9) professional leaders whom
the leader-researcher perceived to be Dynamic Leaders. The respondents were asked about the
leader-researchers personal traits such self-awareness, open-mindedness, empathy, interpersonal
12
relationship and persuasiveness. Consequently, they were also asked to assess the professional
skills of the leader-researchers technical, oral & written communication, decision making,
creativity and organizational development (Schein, 2010).
The conceptualization of the study was conducted after the Candidacy Assessment/Oral
Revalida of the leader-researcher upon consultation approval from the adviser. The leaderresearcher conducted the study from June to July 2016. The data gathering for the Education,
Religious, and Social sectors were conducted in Metro Cebu while the Technology sector were
conducted through online and social media platforms for the respondents (employees/staff) who
were based in the Philippines, United States, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico.
(E) Relevance of the Study
This study on the correlates of assessment between the professional skills and personal traits
as factors in influencing Dynamic Leadership aims to provide a framework or model that would
be beneficial to the following sectors:
Business Industry/Technology
This sector will enable the leader to easily address the issues by providing his advanced
knowledge and skills. The leaders will be able to provide training and development on various
topics without the need of getting a lot of experts/talent pool. The leaders of this industry can
easily make and implement changes as they are authorities that know the field of study/research.
Education
With the Dynamic Leaders, an organization can influence and equip the teachers who
later on can motivate, develop, hone, and competitively trained the students to become
13
professionals in the future. The educators will be equipped with the skills and traits that will be
the basis and foundation of providing knowledge and know-how skills of the graduates for global
competitiveness. The attributes can be passed on to influence others who will be future leaders of
the community.
Social Community
This diverse group will benefit more on the Dynamic Leadership model because it almost
fits on how to deal with different kinds of people in terms of interpersonal and other relations.
Dynamic Leaders can handle this group best because they possess qualities and characteristics
that can address relevant social issues in the community and dealing with this group for them
will not be a challenge.
Religious Community
Denominations have different norms; however, the universal principles of Dynamic
Leadership will be useful on how the Church leader can effectively lead the congregations in
terms of applying their respective principles and the upliftment of moral and spiritual values
through Dynamic Leadership.
Employees/Staff
Employees would not find it difficult predicting and understanding their leaders and they
can freely express their opinions as Dynamic Leaders know how to hear their subordinates. With
the presence of a Dynamic leader, issues and concerns of employees can easily be addressed and
resolved. They could also be provided with continuous trainings and personal development by
the Dynamic Leader which could result to higher productivity and lesser attrition.
14
Clients
Stakeholders and benefactors of the different sectors from education, religious, social and
technology will benefit because they will have an efficient and effective leaders who can deliver
results and business without or lesser mistakes. Organization led by a Dynamic Leader with
diverse skills and traits will make sure that services and businesses are satisfactorily delivered.
Future Researchers
This research can be basis for a similar study and the assessment tool can also be used or
enhanced or use in the conduct of another research with the same topic or focus.
(G)Theoretical Framework
This part of the research paper presents the review of related literature and studies that
are relevant and supportive to the present study.
(a) Review of Related Literature and Studies
It is highly important for the organizational leaders and top level management of a firm to
understand certain characteristics that need to be availed by a leader within a particular company.
In several teams, the employers generally misinterpret the value and quality of a good leader
within an organization. Some employers think that a leader needs to have charm. On the other
hand, some employers think that a leaders needs to have charisma. However, it is the personality
trait and leadership aspect that can help an individual to become a successful leader. In an
addition, it is also true that different employers think that dynamic leaders are developed, not
born. Dynamic leaders are considered as the most effectual and skilled leaders (Selznick, 2014).
They have the ability to guide the employees and sub-ordinates towards the developed
organizational goals quite successfully. In an addition, it is also important to discuss that different
15
leading organizations across the globe are significantly focusing on the effective and significant
leadership skills of leaders to ensure high quality business operation process. However, the
organizations in this contemporary era are seeking for dynamic leaders in order to enhance
effective workplace environment and significant employee management process.
The example of Apple Inc can be considered here. Steve Jobs can be considered as an
effective example of a dynamic leader. Apple Inc can be considered as one of the leading
organizations within the electronics, computer software, and hardware industry. Effective high
quality and product differentiation aspect has helped the organizational management of Apple
Inc to make the company popular and prestigious among customers and other important
stakeholders. It is also important to mention that different organizations have considered and
implicated competitive strategy in business operation process to become successful. However,
some organizations have focused on strong centralized and hierarchical approaches in order to
ensure effectual control over the decision making and strategy development process. This type of
strategic approach has certain limitations as this type of organizational culture does not ensure
dynamic leadership style. Strong autocratic leadership style generally hampers the business
operation process and workplace environment as the autocratic leaders do not believe in the
employee engagement and stakeholder integration process (Rost, 2013). However, Steve Jobs
adopted and applied dynamic leadership style in the workplace in order to ensure effective
employee motivation and conflict free workplace environment.
The effective adoption and implication of dynamic leadership style used to depend upon
different types of personality traits, such as strength, honour, and capability. It is highly
important to mention that organizations should try to ensure the integration of these traits within
the leadership style in order to ensure effective workplace environment. Steve Jobs always
16
encouraged the sub-ordinates and employees to focus on effective and innovative strategy
development process. Employees of different cultural background also focused on the significant
cultural diversity aspect as Steve Jobs believed that people of different cultural background
within the workplace can enhance effective knowledge management process (Colcer, 2008).
Overall, it is also important to discuss that effective self-efficacy is one of the major
characteristics of a dynamic leader. In this case, Steve Jobs had strong believe in the strategy
development and decision making process of different employees. It ensured effective and
significant workplace performance. However, it is proved that Steve Jobs was a dynamic leader
and he believed in the personality traits of employees that can help the organization to boost the
overall productivity. Apart from all these, Steve Jobs also believed that personality traits and
professional skills are highly different from each other. Most importantly, it will be effective to
mention that different organizational leaders should try to focus on application of personality
traits. Significant practice, motivation, and integration of traits can help an individual to become
one of the effective dynamic leaders within a particular organization.
Strong vision also can be considered as an effective and important characteristic that
needs to be availed by a dynamic leader. It is highly important for the leaders within an
organization to focus on effective and significant vision and develop strategies accordingly. This
particular aspect helps an organization regarding goal development process (Adeniyi, 2007). On
the other hand, this particular aspect also helps an organization to meet the developed objectives
quite significantly. In this case also, the example of Apple Inc and Steve Jobs can be considered
as Steve Jobs always had a vision to make Apple Inc one of the leading organizations across the
globe in terms of manufacturer and distributers of innovative, high quality, and differentiated
electronic gadgets. However, he became successful as he always influenced the employees to
17
focus on strong vision and other approaches. In an addition, it is also important to mention that
the organizational leaders significantly obeyed and followed the leadership style and managerial
pathway of Steve Jobs.
Effective communication approach also can be considered as one of the effective and
significant characteristics of a dynamic leader. Dynamic leaders are highly responsible in
maintaining conflict free and transparent communication process between the employees and
top-level management of an organization. In this case, the example of PepsiCo can be considered
here. The top level management and organizational leaders of PepsiCo tries to motivate the
employees and improve their self-confidence level by focusing on the significant internal
organizational communication process. The top level management of PepsiCo has focused on
application of the combination of both top-down as well as bottom-up communication approach.
Most importantly, the employees can easily share their thoughts, views, and perceptions with the
top level management of company. Overall, these particular approaches can be considered as
effective characteristics of dynamic leadership style. Most importantly, these approaches can
help an organization to become a quality leader (Gardner, 2010). Apart from these, it is also
important for an individual to keep practicing on strengthening the professional skill and
competency level as several dynamic leaders across the glove believe that practice makes a man
performance. On the other hand, such leaders also have acknowledged that leaders are made, not
born.
(b) Conceptual Framework and Paradigm
Ethical leadership is known as the core values and having the courage to live with them
in all parts of your life in service of the common good. People in leadership roles do not always
follow ethical patterns.
18
Institutions in the education sector are under a much bigger and broader microscope of
patrol. More rules are in place and more people to enforce them; just the way it should be. True
leaders lead for the subordinates and not for the fame, money and glamour.
Establishing a vision, communicating a strategy and motivating individuals to
cooperatively solve problems, these dynamic leaders ensure organizational success and by
aligning subordinates development goals to specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely
strategic objectives that can establish a functional structure conducive to continuing success and
by developing the leadership dimensions of experience, problem solving ability, personality and
self-awareness, a leader can positively impact the organizations structure and ongoing
profitability (Dunggan, 2010).
A Realtor Magazine article has ten qualities of a good leader: Have Vision, Make
Decisions, Take Risks, Motivate Others, Build Teams, Possess Self-Knowledge, Display
Integrity, Pursue Lifelong Learning, and Communicate Effectively and help others succeed. The
two points that stood out when it comes to self-presentation was Possess Self-Knowledge and
Display Integrity. With leaders possessing self-knowledge, they know their strengths and
weaknesses and can recognize shortcomingsand willing to make changes when necessary.
Displaying integrity is also a crucial part of self-presentation. Being trustworthy is one of the
first steps to being an effective leader. People will not follow if they cannot trust the one at the
top. These two factors help leaders to gain trust and analyze their situation continuously with
subordinates.
There are six pillar of characteristic that dynamic leaders have: trustworthiness, respect,
responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship. The character is the secret ingredient inside the
19
best leaders. The key elements of dynamic leaders character are: 1) consciousness - what you do
as a leader that makes a difference and has an impact; 2) choice - each choice you make as a
leader that reflects your view of what is right; 3) courage - can you stand up for your beliefs and
do what needs to be done?
These ideas and concepts about effective Dynamic Leadership are shown in Figure 1
below.
Figure 1
Dynamic Leadership Model
In relation to the concluded study, the leader-researcher considered Clear Vision, Sense of
Purpose and Good Communicator as bases for the Personal Traits that a Dynamic Leader
possesses. Moreover, Motivation, Celebration of Success and Visibility to the Team are the bases
for Professional Skills that a Dynamic Leader owns.
20
To further describe the concept of this framework, Figure 2 presents the research
paradigm of the study.
Figure 2
Correlates between Personal Traits and Professional Skills as Factors of Dynamic Leadership
Figure 2 shows the different variables from the study are utilized through assessment and
correlations. Dynamic Leadership as the focus of the study is described using two major
categories: personal traits and professional skills. Personal traits were measure using the
following indicators: 1). Likewise, professional skills were measure using the indicators such as;
1). consequently, the leader-researcher who considers himself as a Dynamic Leader subjected
himself for assessment under the four (4) areas where he applied his leadership. These four (4)
areas are education, religious, social and technology.
(c) Relevance of the Related Literature
It is clear from the above discussion that managers or individuals within a particular
organization need to focus on the application of personality traits within the adopted leadership
style to become a dynamic leader. It is also important to mention that different organizational
leaders adopt and implement different types of leadership styles. Therefore, it would be effective
21
to focus on the traits. It is identical that professional skills and personality traits used to differ
from each other. A leader can have different types of supportive personality traits, but he or she
cannot simply become an effective dynamic leader unless he or she is experienced enough to
focus on the strengthening of professional skills. Personality traits can be somehow termed as
personal or individual skills, but it is different comparing to the professionals skills.
On the other hand, it is also important to mention that the organizational leaders may not
become successful by focusing on only the professional skill development process until and
unless they used to implement and apply traits in the leadership and managerial processes.
Several literatures and authors have discussed that an individual cannot become a successful
leader until and unless they have successfully integrated their personality traits with the
professional skill development process. It is highly acceptable.
This particular study is unique comparing to other studies as the readers may come to
know about different characteristics and personality traits of a leader that help them to become a
dynamic leader. On the other hand, it is also important for the readers to focus on the effective
and successful examples of dynamic leaders as this will help them to become professionally as
well as personally successful in near future. This study has offered real life examples, such as
leadership of PepsiCo and leadership of Steve Jobs. These considerations will help to ensure
effective and significant uniqueness of this research work.
(H) Definition of Terms
The understanding of the basic terms used in this study is necessary in order to establish
adequate channels of communication between the researcher and their readers. With this idea in
mind, the basic terms used in this research work were defined conceptually and operationally:
22
Assessment process that the study went through wherein the dynamic leadership skills
and traits were evaluated by the employees/staff respondents from the TESR areas of his
leadership
Dynamic Leadership Dynamic leadership style can be considered as an integrated form
of adoptive leadership style. This dual-focused leadership style generally allows a leader to focus
on giving reaction to the changes pro-actively. On the other hand, a dynamic leader needs to
employ a flexible leadership style, which will help the leader to make effective adjustment to
differentiated critical situations.
Education Education can be defined as a systematic process of giving as well as
receiving knowledge and instructions that help the individuals to get success in individual life.
Culture Culture can be defined as the customs, arts, traditions, ideas, social behaviour,
and norms of particular individuals within a society or community.
Social This particular term can be defined as an approach or element related to society
or some organizations within a society.
Technology Technology can be defined as the adoption and application of theoretical as
well as scientific skill and knowledge for different types of practical purposes. However, the
technological applications can be experienced in different industries.
Employees/Staff this are the respondents of the student who are subordinates of the
leader-researcher
Personal Traits these refer to the characteristics of the researcher-leader describe by the
respondent described by the respondents as to self-awareness,
23
Professional Skills Professional skills can be defined as the skill or competency level of
an individual that helps him or her to become successful within the workplace. In an addition,
effective professional skills of individuals within the workplaces significantly help an
organization to improve overall business performance.
24
Chapter 2: Research Methodology

Research methodology can be considered as one of the integral parts of any kind of
research work. Effective adoption and implementation of appropriate methodological approach
can help to the researcher to gain a significant research outcome. Research methodology can be
divided into two different types, such as qualitative research methodology, and quantitative
research methodology, Qualitative research methodology generally focuses on the views,
emotion, attitude, inner feelings, and perception of the associated individuals. On the other hand,
quantitative research methodology generally focuses on the study and examination of numerical
data and information through application of several statistical formulas.
A: Research Design
The study is quantitative in nature and utilized the descriptive-comparative and
descriptive-correlation designs. These designs are to appraise carefully the worthiness of the
current study. These are used to determine the effectiveness or efficiency of practices, policies,
instruments, or other variables that may be considered. It is also a fact-finding study with
adequate interpretations of the findings and describes what actually exist. This study is
comparative because it considered and compared the evaluation of respondents and correlation.
This study used the descriptive-evaluative research design in the assessment of dynamic
leadership practice among other leaders. Descriptive-evaluative is the appropriate design since
the goal of this research paper is to find out how other leaders evaluate the practice of dynamic
leadership in their organizations.
25
B: Sample and Sampling Technique

Purposive sampling procedure was used in the selection of the samples. Purposive
sampling is used because the study requires responses from the particular respondents.
Moreover, it is also important to mention that the sampling technique will be conducted by
selection of respondents for the data collection process by focusing on different important
demographic backgrounds, such as gender profile, educational background, and age. Both male
and female individuals have been selected as the respondents. Total sample size is 20. There are
6 females and 14 males have been selected as the respondents in this particular research work.
On the other hand, majority of the respondents are aged between 20 and 60. However, there are
two respondents who are above 60 years of age.
C. Research Instruments
The study used a researchers made survey tool in the assessment of dynamic leadership
practices. This instrument is composed of ten criteria that measure the dynamic leadership
skills/practices based on 1) self-awareness, 2) open-mindedness, 3) empathy, 4) interpersonal
relationship, 5) persuasiveness, 6) technicality, 7) oral and written communication, 8) decision
making, 9) creativity, and 10 organizational development. Validation of the research instrument
was conducted through content validation (by the adviser) and pilot testing. Reliability index for
the researcher-made tool is in the table presented below.

Table 5: Reliability Index

The data in Table 5 reveal that ten of the criteria are within the accepted measures of a
reliable tool.
Another tool that was used was interview. This was to verify and check the accuracy of
the data gathered. This instrument also finds out what is in the respondents minds because the
researcher cannot observe what the respondents think and how he feels about something.
Documentary analysis was also used in this study. This was used to study and examines
written or visual contents of a document. In this study, this involved the analysis of the tests
result of the respondents.
27
Before the finalization of the instrument, the researcher sought comments and
suggestions from authorities or persons with expertise. After the corrections, suggestions and
recommendations were given, the instrument was revised accordingly. This was tried out to
respondents who were not the subject-respondents of the study. A reliability test by way of
Cronbach Alpha was done and revealed which indicate internal consistency, thus the instrument
was valid and reliable. The final instrument was shown to the adviser and panel members before
it was reproduced and distributed to the subject-respondents.
D. Data Gathering Procedure
This study practically had started during the presentation of the researchers leadership
practice and achievements for assessment (re-valida). From this period until after six months, the
researcher prepared the proposal and presented it to her adviser. With the accomplishments of the
tool construction and its validation, the researcher started with the data gathering.
Permission was initially sought from concerned organization. It was then followed by
coordination work and the distribution and retrieval of survey tools was conducted for four
weeks. Afterwards, data were submitted for treatment and analysis.

To gather the needed data and information, the following basic steps were undertaken by
the researcher:
1. Related literatures, relevant studies and instruments to be used were gathered and
reviewed.
2. A researcher-made survey questionnaire was constructed according to the specific
problems of the present study. The said instrument was presented to the adviser and panel
members for approval and suggested changes in the final instrument were incorporated.
3. It was subjected to content validity and reliability by pilot-testing to non-respondents.
30
4. Permission from concerned individuals was requested, to administer the questionnaire

and to conduct interviews among the respondents of the study.
5. Survey-questionnaire was administered and retrieved.
6. Data gathered were recorded and appropriate statistical tools were employed to derive
necessary data for interpretation.
7. Interviews were transcribed and translated.
8. Data gathered were organized, presented, analyzed and interpreted.
Statistical Treatment
The following statistical tools were used to substantiate the findings of the study.
Frequency and Percentage was used to determine the profile and the academic
performance of the respondents. Frequency is the actual response to a specific item/ question in
the questionnaire where the respondents check choices. Percentage was used as descriptive
statistics that describes a part of a whole.
Weighted Mean and Standard Deviation were used to determine the evaluation of the
respondents. Mean was used to get the average of frequency of the responses in each weighted
item while standard deviation measures how far or spread the responses are.
Table 6 shows the rating scale that has been used in this particular study.

Table 6: Rating Scale

T-test was employed to determine if there exists a significant difference in the evaluation
of the instructional delivery system between the two groups of respondents.
Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient or Pearson r was utilized to determine if
there exists a significant relationship between the departmental test result of the studentrespondents and their evaluation in the quality of instructional delivery system.
Furthermore, the study used the software Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS)
for windows to handle the statistical computations. SPSS is a powerful software tool, which is
programmed to reduce the responsibilities, tasks, and burdens on the human resources and
manual computation processes. Moreover, this particular software application helps the
researchers to execute the mathematical as well as statistical formulae related to a particular
selected test based on the chosen topic. Thus, the study is limited to the output of the software
thereby not including the details of the computation.

Chapter 3: Results and Data Analysis

This chapter presents the analysis and presentation of data and for better understanding of
the discussion of the findings, frequency and percentage, mean and standard deviation were
compared, t-test and Pearson r were also used, followed by the interpretation of the findings in
the same sequential order of the specific questions.

sub-ordinates. However, the respondents also have mentioned that it is the integrity and ethicsw
that needs to be incorporated in the strategy development process. Effective implementation of
empathy in performance management and employee motivation aspect actually can help a leader
to become a successful dynamic leader as it will take care of the positive business growth rate of
an organization. In an addition, it is also important to mention that the respondents have put
pressure on effective written and verbal communication process in order to ensure effective
understanding between employees and managers.
According to the majority of the employees, effective communication process can help a
leader or a manager to focus on significant strategy development and implementation process.
Moreover, it is also true that different types of training and development programme for leaders
as well as employees can ensure significant strategy implication process. Improved
understanding level also can help the leaders to contribute significantly in the organizational
development process, which can be considered as a vital aspect for the business operation
process of an organization.
Last but not the least; it is also important for a leader to focus on effective and major selfawareness approaches in order to become one of the successful dynamic leaders within a
70
workplace. Majority of the respondents have accepted that several leading multinational as well
as small and medium scaled enterprises are trying to capitalize on the fruitful opportunities that
are developed due to globalization and technological advancement. However, self-awareness of
the usage of advanced technological applications within the workplaces is highly vital for the
leaders within the organization. Alternatively, it is also important for an enterprise to motivate
the leaders and managers to focus on creative business operation processes. Creativity and
innovation can be considered as two most important things that are required within the attitudes
of the dynamic leaders. Apart from this, all the respondents have agreed that the leaders need to
focus on bottom-up communication approaches as this will help in successful and significant
sharing of views and thought process of employees. Moreover, it is also important to discuss that
the respondents have accepted the effectiveness of ethical organizational development process
through strong integrity as self-awareness of communication process, decision making process,
and creative strategy development process will enhance establishment of the adequate dynamic
leadership style.
Conclusion
It is clear from the above analysis, findings, and discussion that organizational leaders
and top level management should focus on the managers as well as leaders to adopt and
implement adequate dynamic leadership style. Poor employee motivation, inadequate
performance management, lack of creativity, affected organizational communication process, and
hampered inter-personal relationships can be considered as the major consequences of the poor
leadership style adopted by the organizational leaders.
It has been identified in this contemporary era that organizations are only focusing on the
customer centric strategy development process in order to ensure competitive edges. However,
71
this is also true that such organizations can face corporate governance and business ethics related
challenges due to lack of adoption of dynamic as well as participative leadership style. Most
importantly, there are different types of leaders as well as managers that can either influence the
employees to do well or else create fear among employees to do well or they may get terminated.
It is true that different employees used to prefer different types of motivational approaches from
the leaders and managers. Some employees are self-motivated within the workplaces. On the
other hand, some employees are lazy despite having the potentiality. Lack of effective situational
dynamic leadership style can hamper the workplace environment and performance level of the
employees.
There are several organizations in this contemporary era that follow centralized decision
making approaches. Alternatively, there are such organizations that used to follow the
hierarchical organizational structure and centralized organizational culture. In this type of
organizational culture and structure, the leaders used to follow authoritative as well as autocratic
leadership style. Moreover, there are some organizations that do not follow the stakeholder
engagement and stakeholder value aspect in the business operation process such strategies can
hamper the employee motivation as well as workplace environment of an organization.
Too much centralization may force the leaders and managers to follow the developed
guidelines and rules and impose them on the employees within the workplace. In an addition, it
is also valuable to discuss that autocratic leadership style cannot help the employees, who are not
self motivated. Moreover, poor performance management and inadequate employee orientation
are the major consequences of this autocratic as well as authoritative leadership style. Therefore,
majority of the multinational organizations in this contemporary era are focusing on effective and
significant adoption as well as implication of dynamic leadership style. It is highly important for
72
the organizational leaders as well as top level management to overcome such challenges.
Following recommendation plans will help the organizations in this contemporary era to
overcome such challenges.
Recommendations
In order to consider and implement dynamic leadership style successfully, it is vital for
the organizational leaders to ensure the consideration of change management plan in the
organizational business operation process. First of all, it is highly essential for the leaders and top
level management of a firm to focus on the reformation of organizational culture. Several
organizations used to follow centralised organizational culture. It generally allows to ensure
authoritative leadership style, which affects the employee motivation and workplace
environment. First of all, the organizational management should try to focus on the adoption and
implementation of decentralized organizational culture as well as strategy development process.
Effective decentralization can help an organization to allow the leaders to adopt and implement
democratic, dynamic, and visionary leadership style. These leadership orientations can also help
the leaders to take care of the professional as well as personal needs and satisfaction level of the
employees. Moreover, this particular leadership style will also help the leaders as well as
managers within the workplace to motivate the employees to ensure innovative idea generation
and implementation process. Apart from all these things, effective decentralization will also help
the leaders to take care of the performance management process of employees. Different types of
strategies and development process need to be employee centric as these may help in the
maintaining conflict free and sustainable workplace environment.
Secondly, it is important for the top level management an organizational leaders to focus
on the effective and significant establishment of flatter organizational structure. There are two
73
types of organizational structures that considered by the organizational management, such as

flatter organizational structure and hierarchical organization structure. Flatter organizational
structure can help the employees as well as top level management of the organization to
participate in the interaction process. This particular process may help the organizational leaders
and top level management to focus on the performance level of employees more closely. On the
other hand, the employees may share their perceptions more effectively with the management of
the organizations.
Thirdly, it is important for the leaders as well as managers to establish strong as well as
effective bottom-up communication network or approach. This type of communication approach
can be considered as two way communication approach in which both employees as well as
supervisors participate in the strategy development process. There are two different types of
communication approaches within an organization, such as top-down communication approach
and bottom-up communication approach. In this bottom-up communication approach, the
managers or leaders always integrate the leaders in the strategy development as well as
implication process. Moreover, this type of communication process in transparent. Adoption of
this communication approach generally helps an organizational leader to justify his or her
adopted and implemented dynamic leadership skills.
Last but not the least; the dynamic leaders should always try to integrate important
internal as well as external stakeholders in the decision making process. It is really acceptable
that different types of stakeholders can offer different important strategies or options in the
decision making process that can help a firm to improve the growth rate of business profitability.
Apart from all these things, it is also important to focus effective corporate governance. Dynamic
leadership style always helps the leaders to maintain ethics, transparency, and corporate
74
governance of organizations. Alternatively, positive stakeholder engagement also helps a leader

to focus on effective and significant visionary leadership style in which the leaders will go for
innovation and creative approaches in the business operation process.
