The process of influencing individuals or groups toward the achievement. The seven traits associated with successful leadership are drive, desire to lead, honesty and integrity, self-confidence, intelligence, job-relevant knowledge, and extraversion. The fielder model of contingency theory of leadership assumes that different situations require different leadership styles. Hersey and blanchard"s situational leadership theory states that successful leadership is achieved by selecting a leadership style that matches the level of the follower"s readiness. It also states that leaders must give up control as followers become more competent. Charismatic leadership increases motivation, and leads to greater employee satisfaction.

Motivation works best when individual needs are compatible with organizational goals.
