(boss)

effectiveness.

organizational climate.

the team flourish. Teams are the best approach to get the work done. Apart from
the above, teams enjoy emotional and job satisfaction when they work in groups.
c) Leaders should adopt team leadership style and
not autocratic leadership style. To do this, jobs should be allotted to the team
and not to the individualIt is not possible for one individual (leader) to
perform both, the leadership and maintenance functions. It is therefore
necessary for team members to assist leader in performance of his duties.

management, stress management, group decision-making, collaboration, and
effective interpersonal communication. This will improve organizational
effectiveness. Empowerment is the corner stone of the successful organizations.

prophecy. People must be
treated with due respect and considered important. The credit of success must
be given to the employees unconditionally.
