Specific Features of Organizational Leadership – Pattern for the Political Leaders
The article presents the brief characteristics and assessment of the organizational leadership. Special attention was paid to those features of the organizational leadership which should also possess the political leaders. At present neither the charisma nor an exceptional knowledge and skills determine the success of the organizational leader. The same holds true as regards the political leaders who should rather possess the ability of choosing the so called “lesser evil” and should act flexibly and adapt their style of leadership to a given situation. However both organizational and political leaders are praised or blamed for their courage and ability to make the unpopular decisions, assuming that they are the right decisions in a given moment and situation. Therefore it seems that the efficiency of management in the case of organizational leader and the effectiveness of governance in the case of political leader are the most important measures of their competences as the leaders of a given organization or state. It should also be beared in mind that the right decisions made in a given situation are the best indicator of his or her ability as the organizational of political leader.
