3. Introduction: • *In this module we are going to talk about the different types of leadership and how to become a leader in our daily life.

4. Objective: • That the student learn to have self confidences and evaluate themself to become better leaders.

5. The word leadership can refer to: • Those entities that perform one or more acts of leading. • The ability to affect human behavior so as to accomplish a mission. • Influencing a group of people to move towards its goal setting or goal achievement

6. Types of leadership styles: • The bureaucratic leader =is very structured and follows the procedures as they have been established. This type of leadership has no space to explore new ways to solve problems and is usually slow paced to ensure adherence to the ladders stated by the company.

7. The charismatic leader : • leads by infusing energy and eagerness into their team members. This type of leader has to be committed to the organization for the long run.

8. The autocratic leader : • is given the power to make decisions alone, having total authority. This leadership style is good for employees that need close supervision to perform certain tasks.

9. The democratic leader : • This style involves the leader including one or more employees in the decision making process (determining what to do and how to do it). However, the leader maintains the final decision making authority.

10. The laissez-faire ("let do") leader : • In this style, the leader allows the employees to make the decisions. However, the leader is still responsible for the decisions that are made. This is used when employees are able to analyze the situation and determine what needs to be done and how to do it.

11. The people-oriented leader : • is the one who, in order to comply with effectiveness and efficiency, supports, trains and develops his personnel, increasing job satisfaction and genuine interest to do a good job.

12. The servant leader : • facilitates goal accomplishment by giving its team members what they need in order to be productive. This leader is an instrument employees use to reach the goal rather than a commanding voice that moves to change.

13. The transaction leader : • is given power to perform certain tasks and reward or punish for the team’s performance. It gives the opportunity to the manager to lead the group and the group agrees to follow his lead to accomplish a predetermined goal in exchange for something else.

14. The transformation leader : • motivates its team to be effective and efficient. Communication is the base for goal achievement focusing the group on the final desired outcome or goal attainment. This leader is highly visible and uses chain of command to get the job done.

15. The environment leader : • is the one who nurtures group or organizational environment to affect the emotional and psychological perception of an individual’s place in that group or organization.

16. Symbolism of leadership • Various symbolic attributes often varying according to the cultural milieu — mark out authority-figures and help make them seem special and revered or feared.

17. Scope of leadership • One can govern oneself, or one can govern the whole earth. In between, we may find leaders who operate primarily within: • youth • families • bands • tribes • organizations • states and nations • empires

18. Tips and tricks and looking fresh in leadership:

19. First the Voice… • The voice is probably the most valuable tool of the presenter. It carries most of the content that the audience takes away. One of the oddities of speech is that we can easily tell others what is wrong with their voice, e.g. too fast, too high, too soft, etc., but we have trouble listening to and changing our own voices.

20. There are four main terms used for defining vocal qualities • Volume: • Tone: • Pitch: • Pace:

21. Volumen: • How loud the sound is. The goal is to be heard without shouting. Good speakers lower their voice to draw the audience in, and raise it to make a point.

22. Tone: • The characteristics of a sound. An airplane has a different sound than leaves being rustled by the wind. A voice that carries fear can frighten the audience, while a voice that carries laughter can get the audience to smile.

23. Pitch: • How high or low a note is.

24. Pace: • This is how long a sound lasts. Talking too fast causes the words and syllables to be short, while talking slowly lengthens them. Varying the pace helps to maintain the audience's interest.

25. To give an presentation??? • Great presentations require some preplanning. First, read meetings for an outline of preparing and conducting a meeting, such as acquiring a room, informing participants, etc. A presentation follows the same basic guidelines as preparing for a meeting.

26. … • good presentation starts out with introductions and an icebreaker such as a story, interesting statement or fact, joke, quotation, or an activity to get the group warmed up.

27. … • The introduction also needs an objective, that is, the purpose or goal of the presentation. This not only tells you what you will talk about, but it also informs the audience of the purpose of the presentation.

28. Next, comes the body of the presentation. Do NOT write it out word for word. All you want is an outline. By jotting down the main points on a set of index cards, you not only have your outline, but also a memory jogger for the actual presentation. To prepare the presentation, ask yourself the following:

29. What is the purpose of the presentation? • Who will be attending? • What does the audience already know about the subject? • What is the audience's attitude towards me (e.g. hostile, friendly)?

30. Is my presentation formal and complete? • Remember that for a formal presentation it must have the following structure:

31. There are several options f structuring the presentation: • Timeline: Arranged in sequential order. • Climax: The main points are delivered in order of increasing importance. • Problem/Solution: A problem is presented, a solution is suggested, and benefits are then given.

32. Classification: The important items are the major points. • Simple to complex: Ideas are listed from the simplest to the most complex. Can also be done in reverse order.

33. What about the body? Expressions? Gesture? Eye contact? Posture? What else??

34. The Body • Your body communicates different impressions to the audience. People not only listen to you, they also watch you. Slouching tells them you are indifferent or you do not care...

35. Continued…. • ...even though you might care a great deal! On the other hand, displaying good posture tells your audience that you know what you are doing and you care deeply about it. Also, a good posture helps you to speak more clearly and effective.

36. … • During the presentation: Take a moment to yourself by getting a drink of water, take a deep breath, concentrate on relaxing the most tense part of your body, and then return to the presentation saying to your self, "I can do it!"

37. Eye contact • This helps to regulate the flow of communication. It signals interest in others and increases the speaker's credibility. Speakers who make eye contact open the flow of communication and convey interest, concern, warmth, and credibility

38. Facial Expressions • Smiling is a powerful cue that transmits happiness, friendliness, warmth, and liking. So, if you smile frequently you will be perceived as more likable, friendly, warm, and approachable. Smiling is often contagious and others will react favorably. They will be more comfortable around you and will want to listen to you more.

39. Gestures: • If you fail to gesture while speaking, you may be perceived as boring and stiff. A lively speaking style captures attention, makes the material more interesting, and facilitates understanding.

40. Posture and body orientation • You communicate numerous messages by the way you talk and move. Standing erect and leaning forward communicates that you are approachable, receptive, and friendly.

41. Interpersonal closeness results when you and your audience face each other. Speaking with your back turned or looking at the floor or ceiling should be avoided as it communicates disinterest.

42. Proximity • You should look for signals of discomfort caused by invading other's space. Some of these are: rocking, leg swinging, tapping, and gaze aversion.

43. I am so nervous…

44. First, do not fight nerves, welcome them! • Then you can get on with the presentation instead of focusing in on being nervous. Like actors….

45. Nerves • The main enemy of a presenter is tension, which ruins the voice, posture, and spontaneity. The voice becomes higher as the throat tenses. Shoulders tighten up and limits flexibility while the legs start to shake and causes unsteadiness. The presentation becomes "canned" as the speaker locks in on the notes and starts to read directly from them.

46. … • Know that anxiety and tension is not as noticeable to the audience as it is to you. • Know that even the best presenters make mistakes. The key is to continue on after the mistake. If you pick up and continue, so will the audience.

47. Speak with moderation…. • One of the major criticisms of speakers is that they speak in a monotone voice. Listeners perceive this type of speaker as boring and dull. People report that they learn less and lose interest more quickly when listening to those who have not learned to modulate their voices.

48. Habits • We all have a few habits, and some are more annoying than others. For example, if we say "uh," "you know," or put our hands in our pockets and jingle our keys too often during a presentation, it distracts from the message we are trying to get across, Control them.

49. Active listening…

50. Active Listening • Good speakers not only inform their audience, they also listen to them. By listening, you know if they are understanding the information and if the information is important to them. Active listening is NOT the same as hearing! Hearing is the first part and consists of the perception of sound.
