The present case study outlines the importance the leadership skill and identifies it as the most sustainable competitive edge in a progressively more competitive and boundary less business world (Hoch and Dulebohn, 2013). The case study on performance coaching with reference to the role of Darcy Gallagher gives the opportunity to comprehend the qualities and skills that need to be nourished to become an effective leader. The kingpin of the case study is the important elements of competency that affect the leadership outcomes and are influenced by the individual characteristics of the leader as well. The main purpose of the Coaching Performance to be conducted at Elmwood is to develop responsiveness to coaching facilities that are available in the daily work routine and aids the mangers to identify the problems of the members, the prompt responses to address their problems and add to the contribution made for long term career growth of the leaders as well as their subordinates.

Leadership can be defined as the process of identifying a goal, motivating others, and make them to achieve the mutually goals (Giltinane, 2013). According to Humphreys (2002), successful leaders do this by applying their leadership knowledge and skills. A good leadership is not only good at management, but also use different leadership styles in different situations. A successful corporation must has a good leader who have the flexible ability which can provide a suitable leadership to make the company successful. Furthermore, there have no perfect leadership styles in the world. Different leader have different leadership styles which also have the different strengths and weaknesses (Ali & Waqar, 2013).

When an organization does not reach the goals mandated by the leadership of that company there has to be an examination into what causes that breakdown. By looking into the different areas of the company from leadership down to the workers, management can ascertain what needs correction. By having an outside investigation done there are biased findings, and the advised changes are made from pure facts. The industrial/organizational psychology used to help build up failing company includes performance analysis, different leadership theories, and team or group structure. Woody’s Veneer Factory has opted to contract an

As Ken Blanchard reminded us, "The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority." In other words, leadership works through people and culture - not the hierarchy and systems which can so limit a company 's growth. That 's why I believe that one of the most useful approaches to leadership development focuses on the underlying attitude that leaders have to other people, in particular, the need for influencing skills rather than attempts to control. Controlling behaviour suppresses the motivation of employees to bring their best to their organisations.

Leaders that are successful in today’s business environment must understand that success does not happen overnight. The process is long and sometimes very time consuming, making the percentage of successful leaders very small. When planning an important group to take into account is human resource. Having the trust and buy in from the line staff is critical to the overall success as a leader. We have all had that leader that seems to only be number or result driven, that only makes decisions based on what is best for the bottom line. Usually these leaders have high turnover and do not last as long as the employees that are able to stick around through their tenure. In this paper I will provide examples of leaders that have fell into these six pitfalls, how it affected the team and what they could have done differently.

To achieve success and survive in a competitive environment, it is essential that those at the top should have leadership qualities and skills. A brief statement of some of these required attributes and skills are as follows:

Organizational leadership means the process of improving actions of line managers and decision makers through better knowledge and understanding. To operate effectively, organizations need to fit or align themselves with their environment, strategies, capabilities and leadership skills. To compete successfully in highly competitive and constantly changing business environment, however, organizations also need to achieve fitness and the ability to learn and change to fit new circumstances. In other words, firms can lose their competitive advantage through the lapse of time, therefore leadership skills are the only sustainable competitive advantage firms can have.

BOOK REVIEW-LEADERSHIP AND PERFORMANCE BEYOND EXPECTATIONS Bass, B. (1985). Leadership and Performance Beyond Expectations. New York: The Free Press. It is one of the best leadership books I ever read so far. “Leadership and Performance Beyond Expectations” by Bernard M. Bass, published by The Free Press in 1985. It has been two decades since the book published, and some might says that the word “expectations” used as the title may be only applicable during that era, but for me, most of the ideas are still relevant and adaptable till present; as to agree with the a statement made by Abraham Zaleznik, Konosuke Matsushita Professor of Leadership, Emeritus at the Havard Business School on this publication, “This book will recast leadership

Organizations worldwide are complex environments made up of various levels and depend on the performance of leaders and followers. While the focus tends to be significantly more on leaders than followers, the importance of understanding people is agreed upon. As the world has become increasingly more connected due to technology and globalization, cultures and diversity have received greater attention as organizations realize they must know how to successfully interact with a wide variety of people (Luthans & Doh, 2015). An added benefit to this learning process would be to also have a stronger foundation of followership knowledge, particularly international followership.

The relationship between firm leaders’ features and firms’ performance has drawn increasing attention in recent years. The intuition behind can mostly be explained by upper echelons theory (Hambrick and Mason 1984). The main idea of upper echelons theory is that a firm can be seen as the reflection of its upper echelon (defined as key decision-making groups).

In today's increasingly competitive business environment, the relevance of effective leadership cannot be overstated. That is, with the world fast becoming a global village, organizations should ideally have effective leaders at the helm so as to remain relevant. In this text, I concern myself with managerial effectiveness.
