Culturally, these leadership styles, their emergence and development, is beneficial for the leadership and management to understand and apply in order to lead the respective teams towards success, effective innovations and productivity and longevity. SERVANT LEADERSHIP: EMPATHY AND SERVICE: SETTING THE GROUND empowered to add value to change. It focuses on people, communication and passion for their personal and career development. Key attributes of Servant leadership styles include: Empathy and Understanding: One of the key characteristics of servant leadership and management is excellent awareness of feelings and desires of people and maintaining a positive psychological climate. Empowerment: In featuring people development as a core of servant leadership, people are equipped to make decisions and to own responsibilities. Community Building: This type of leadership and management creates a sense of togetherness and this is particularly suitable when the organization is closely looking to develop a good culture and tradition. Although Servant Leadership remains relevant today especially with strategic organizations, this leadership style is often found wanting in dynamic or growth environments due to its weakness in speed and flexibility. To counter these emerging difficulties, the leadership styles shift towards the practical action strategies. Moving Towards Top-Notch Transformational Leadership Styles Transformational Leadership was developed in reaction to perceived deficiencies of separative, \u2018people-oriented\u2019 Leadership.

Some of these include: Visionary Thinking: People-oriented leadership styles are great masters of the vision and communication processes planning a change. Inspiration and Motivation: These leadership and management make other people want to give their best and make high performance the expected standard. Adaptability and Innovation: Organizational-Change leaders are well suited for environments of change and seek to promote new ideas as well as new concepts among the team members. Commitment to Change: While Servant leadership styles accentuates the importance of continuity and integration, Transformational Leadership is all about succession and future. As a result of moving from the service-dominant logic to the growth-possible logic, Transformational Leadership is most beneficial in highly dynamic contexts that can only retain their competitive advantage through ongoing innovation. This shift also indicates how leaders change the way they lead in organizations as they respond to the dynamics in organizations and markets.
