I find it fascinating to hear the perspectives of others. To me,
it's crucial that everyone in the team pitches in to find the most

4. Characteristics of democratic leader
Attribute:

Approachable
Trustworthy
Participative
Motivate Originality
Regard for Others
Build Confidence
Life example
Working as a Management Analyst in the realm of government
spending, I am frequently required to communicate with the
Program Management Team of a third party firm. No collimated
staff members prevent me from personally performing some of
the work necessary to maintain an accurate external
organization ledger. As a result, I need to be approachable,
polite, and nice to my coworkers so that they would feel
comfortable confiding in me and trusting me with their ideas.
By consistently soliciting feedback from staff and management,
I want to foster a culture of collaboration. This fosters
innovation on the team and opens minds to new points of view.
Charismatic leadership style
They have excellent communication skills.
Passionate in furthering Their Cause.
5. Professionals have a lot of experience in their field.
Act with a level head (Siangchokyoo, et al. 2020).
Leadership traits and behavior are under scrutiny.

Possible drawbacks
Frustratingly Diminished Clarity
Not Enough People to Make It Happen
Charismatic leader
Charismatic leader example:
president Barack Obama
Charismatic leadership qualities:
Confident
Motivational
Visionary
Courageous and,
Inspirational
Why I chose the leader
Barack Obama is an outstanding leader, which is why I voted
for him. His optimistic resolve to effect change in the United
States motivated me to take action locally.
Transformational leadership style

Acquire the wisdom and experience to become effective leaders.
6. Hope for the future.

Uniformity Failure
Transformational leader
Transformational leader example:
Steve jobs
Transformational leadership qualities:
Corporate Awareness
Proactive
Personal Honesty
Inspirational
Confident
Why I chose leader:
That's why I went for Steve Jobs: I think he really shook up the
industry with some really groundbreaking technological
advances that have now become standard fare throughout the
world. He rehabilitated Apple's reputation and helped it become
globally recognized. Spending much of his time cultivating
brand loyalty and a sense of community was a top priority for
him.
7. Charismatic vs. transformational
Charismatic
The abuse of power is motivated by self-interest.
Personality and charisma of the leader are much valued.
Indefatigable and willing to take chances to realize their goals.
Transformational
changes in accordance with its devotees.
Be exemplary citizens.
acts as a role model for others.
Impacts of transformational leadership
A transformational leader is not detrimental for the society or
organization because;
Promotes motivation- A key aspect of transformational
leadership is an emphasis on increasing the morale of workers,
which in turn may boost output and propel teams to new heights
of success. Leaders may inspire their teams either by appealing
to their intrinsic motivations or by giving external incentives
like bonuses and recognition (Al-Husseini, et al. 2018).
Maintains workplace integrity-Transformational leaders focus
people on present duties while working in the company's best
interest. Transformational leaders must be clear, unique, and
honest and ethical.
Encourages professional growth- Transformational leadership
inspires professional growth and project and company goals. It
motivates workers to learn new skills, try new things, and
8. improve their careers.
Reflection
As a result of this task, I was able to learn more about different
models of leadership. It gave me a chance to think about the
qualities of leaders I like and how my own leadership style
compares to theirs. Through this task, I was able to compare and
contrast the characteristics of charismatic and transformative
leaders. Understanding the importance of the leader's capacity
to inspire and influence subordinates has been greatly enhanced
by this task. The way their subordinates perceive them is the
fundamental dividing line between charismatic and
transformative leadership.

Conclusion
No method of leadership or method of making decisions is
foolproof. Time restrictions, the desired amount of engagement,
the followers participating and their abilities, and the quality of
the final choice are all vital to think about when deciding on a
method. There are advantages and disadvantages to both of
these models. Choosing a format that works for you is the first
and most crucial step.
The situational leadership paradigm is one that I find very
appealing. I think it's great for encouraging the growth of self-
confident followers, and I appreciate the way it adapts to each
person's changing needs. As I reflect on my own professional
development, I am able to realize how closely this blueprint
matches my own experiences.

be underpinning in an organization's employee motivation.
