About the Book

Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Communications - Interpersonal Communication, grade: Outstanding, The University of Surrey, language: English, abstract: When you think of great leaders, names like Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, Bill Gates, Barack Obama or Gordon Brown may come up. But what makes a leader a good leader? Being a good leader requires a lot of things and therefore not everybody can be a successful leader. "Leaders can be born, elected, or trained and groomed; they can seize power or have leadership trust upon them" (Lewis: 2006, p.104).

Additionally to the fact that it is in any case difficult to find the ideal style for every situation and every follower, cultural differences set up another challenge: communication styles, gender, uncertainty avoidance, power distance, individualistic versus collectivistic, etc. play an important role if it comes to finding the most ideal style (Ledlow, Coppola: 2011). Several scientists support the idea of "a culture specific view of leadership indicating that unique cultural" (Paṣa, Kabasakal, Bodur: 2001, p.565) traits such as religion, language and
