Qualities of a Good Leader and the Benefits of Good Leadership to an Organization: A Conceptual Study

Abstract

The problem being faced by today’s organizations is that they are either overled or underled thus they need to increase their leading capacities in order to exercise balanced leadership. Generally leadership occurs when there is a relationship between the leader (one who intends to lead) and the people who prefer to follow (followers). This study aims to review literature related to the qualities of a good leader and the benefits of good leadership to the organization with the aim to establish gaps for further studies on the topic.

Key Words: Leadership, Qualities, Benefits, Emotional Intelligence, Objectives.
