 Dear students, I welcome you in the course of leadership, emotional intelligence and decision making. This is module number 94 and we are going to talk about 7 transformations of leadership idea in practice. When we talk about idea in practice, we are concerned with the fact that different types of leaders are technically operational in an organizational facility. Some of them might be opportunist and some of them might be alchemist. Now to go through this detail, we will look at the depth in the concern developed by us about where to be opportunist, where to be a diplomat, where to be an expert, and what level of leaders are operating in an organizational facility. To go through this detail, we will focus on its further elaboration. When we talk about opportunist concern, opportunist concern may be that the leader is basically having the characteristic of winning any way possible. The leader is going to be self-oriented, manipulative, and would think that might make the right. Those would be good in emerging the technicalities related to the increase in sales. For example, but in the case of the weaknesses that we focus on, the biggest weakness of opportunists is that few people want to follow them. Because being opportunist, their focus is only on their development. The second level would be the diplomat. The diplomat is the person who is going to avoid the conflict, who wants to belong, who obeys group norms, and obviously he or she would not be there to rock the boat. In this case, its major strength is that it maximizes the focus on team orientation. In addition, if we look at the weakness side, it cannot provide painful feedback and make hard decisions. That is the deficiency related to the diplomat type of being a leader. When we talk about the expert, in the case of an expert, rules by logic and expertise, that is the main concern because he has competencies, he has proficiencies to do that particular phenomena. Where his particular strength will be, that would be a good individual contributor because that person is an expert. But in that case, the weakness we will count on, that would be that his emotional intelligence is less and he does not have the expertise to take others with respect. Because his major focus would be based upon his or her proficiency and competency alone. In that, the social capability to deal with the people, that would be lacking behind. Similarly, if we look at the Achiever case, the major characteristic would be that the person meets the strategic goals, promotes team work, juggles, managerial duties and responds to market demand to achieve goals. But if we count his strength, it is well suited to managerial work. But if we look at the weaknesses side, in that case, he does not have the out of the box thinking because the person is too much focused upon the work outcomes rather than coming up with creativity and innovation. Likewise, if we look at the individualistic perspective, the individualistic perspective, the major characteristic would be that the person is operational in unconventional ways. And because of being operational in unconventional ways, his major strength would be that would be effective in venture and consulting roles. In addition, if we look at the weaknesses of the individualist, then we will know that there would be certain challenges which he could not meet, in which he would irritate his colleagues, he could irritate the bosses and he would be ignorant in the organizational processes because his concern is that he is majorly on the development and the launching of the different new ventures. If we look at the strategic concern, in the strategic case, the major characteristic would be that it generates organizational and personal change and that person is highly collaborative. But if we look at the strengths, the transformation can occur over a longer period of time. This is the major characteristic which is counted as strength or as a weakness. Generally, there is no any sorted weakness which we can associate with the strategists. Likewise, the best possible leadership concern can be that the leader is operational like an alchemist or alchemist, it is said that he can generate social transformation or social transformation generation like the Nelson Mandela is the example. He can reinvent the organization in the historically significant ways in the ways in which the organization can take its boost to the maximum level. If we look at the strengths of the alchemist, then the alchemist is there to lead. The alchemist can basically bring about a change which is not just linked with the organizational facility but also the major aspects of the society can lead a change in the holistic perspective. Now, when we are picking a leader as an alchemist, then no doubt the transformational capability will be of a superlative degree. He will have humility, he will have willpower, he will be the leader of level 5 and his concern would be like an alchemist. Dear students, if we conclude everything, then remember that different people develop with different pace towards the direction of becoming leader. Some people might start as an opportunist but with the passage of time, with the exposure, with the right experience, with the gain of knowledge, they can become alchemists. They can become strategists. It all depends on the involvement, the engagement, the enthusiasm, and the passion they have. Thank you very much.
