Good morning friends, today I want to share with you about a very special topic I have important was my special work topic of degree to complete my college career.
First define what it is to be a leader: a leader is one who has the ability to influence people, to get their understanding about the actions and measures to take in a given situation.

MANAGERIAL LEADERSHIP
The leader focuses on clear job assignments, good performance standards and delivery schedules. Newstrom (2011, p. 182).
SUPPORTIVE LEADERSHIP
The leader shows concern for the welfare and needs of employees while providing a pleasant working environment. Newstrom (2011, p. 182)
ACHIEVEMENT-ORIENTED LEADERSHIP
The leader sets high expectations for employees, expresses confidence in their ability to achieve complex goals, and enthusiastically models the desired behavior. Newstrom (2011, p. 182).
PARTICIPATORY LEADERSHIP
The leader invites employees to comment on decisions, and takes their suggestions seriously when making final decisions. Newstrom (2011, p. 182).
He believes that this style of leadership is characteristic of those managers who encourage subordinates to intervene or participate in decision making. There is trust and information is shared without restrictions. Figueroa (2009, p. 105).
CHARISMATIC LEADERSHIP
A leader is charismatic when he offers rewards of moral content and has faithful followers. The charismatic leader makes his followers work to accomplish the mission, goal, or cause; to accomplish that, he affects the emotions of his followers by encouraging and inspiring them. It is able to encourage them to overcome their past performance and personal interests, creating a sense of commitment to the goals. Amaru (2009, p. 323)
TRANSACTIONAL LEADERSHIP
The transactional leader, or negotiator, appeals to interests, especially the basic needs of followers. Promises rewards to get followers (or subordinates) to work toward goals. The transactional leader offers material or psychological rewards,
in exchange for a commitment of the calculator type. Amaru (2009, p. 324)
People look for leaders who are genuine over leaders who are right.
