leadership and the duties and responsibilities

1.Leadership as an ability to handle another person to obtain maximum results with minimum friction and greater cooperation, leadership is a strength of spirit / morale of creative and focused. Leaders work with other people: A leader is responsible for working with others, one with his superiors, staff, coworkers or other superiors in the organization as well as people outside the organization
2. task leader  In every community there is always a leader. The role of diverse leaders, among them are as mover, motivator, inspiration, direction, uniting, patron, protector, helper, compassion divider, adequate and welfare, and so on. A leader's job, so there are many and severe. All of that role will be accounted for, either in the presence of humans they lead and in the presence of the Lord one day.
3. I think it is a leadership style where the style or the way a person in performing duties, authority and responsibility in a job by job and fit in their respective professions.  
style of leadership that I know are as follows:
*Bureaucratic - This is one style that is characterized by a continuous attachment to the organization's rules. This style is considered that the difficulties would be overcome if everyone follow the rules. The decisions made based on standard procedures. Its leader was a diplomat and knows how to use most of the rules to make people do their job. Compromise is a way of life due to make a decision accepted by the majority, people often had to yield to others.
*Permissive - Here the intention is to make every person in the group are satisfied. Making people happy is still the rule. This style assumes that if people feel satisfied with themselves and others, then the organization will function and thus, the work will be completed. Coordination is often sacrificed in this style.
*Laissez-faire - This is absolutely not leadership. This style is to let things run their course. Leaders only perform maintenance functions only. For example, a priest may name only the chairman of the organization and only handle the affairs of the sermon, while others do all the trinkets of how the organization should operate. This style is sometimes used by the leaders who frequently travel or temporary duty only.
*Participatory - This style is worn by those who believe that the way to motivate people is by involving them in decision-making process. It is expected to create a sense of shared goals and objectives. The problem that arises is the possibility of slow action in dealing with periods of crisis.
*Autocratic - This style is characterized by dependence to the authorities and usually assume that people will not do anything unless instructed. This style does not encourage any updates. Leaders consider themselves indispensable. Decisions can be made quickly.
4.if I am going to be a leader in a company, I will be a responsible leader, has a concept for memajhukan company, firm, wise, fair, and take my staff is a friend who can be invited to succeed the ultimate goal of the company. and if later on there will be a problem I will be responsible, completed in accordance with the right concept to solve the problem

first-line management policies, middle management and top management


Pyramid of the number of employees in organizations with traditional structures, based on its level.
In the traditional organizational structure, managers are often grouped into top managers, middle managers and first line managers (usually represented by a pyramid,where the number of employees is greater at the bottom than at the peak).
Manajement first-line (first-line management), also known as operations management terms, is the lowest level of management in charge to lead and supervisenon-managerial employees involved in the production process. They are often referred to a supervisor (supervisor), shift manager, area manager, office manager, department manager, or foreman (foreman).
Middle-management level (middle management) covers all management were among the first-line managers and top management and served as a liaison between the two.Positions, including middle managers in between the head part, the project leader,plant manager, or division manager.
Top management (top management), also known by the term executive officer, in charge of planning activities and corporate strategy in general and direct the course ofthe company. Examples of top management is the CEO (Chief Executive Officer), CIO(Chief Information Officer) and CFO (Chief Financial Officer).
However, not all organizations can complete its work by using this traditional pyramidshape. 
 For example in the organization more flexible and simple, with the work performed by a team of employees who are always changing, moving from one project to another according to demand jobs.case study examples:
master ali as general manager at the hotel xxx.
policies which he gave to his employees when there is a problem that is host ali can make warnings against its employees or others can move it gets a punishment or he could find where the errors of employees is only then after that he decided the best way though something had to fire the employee
 in general, every company or manager each have a policy in solving a problem that occurs in the company.
so yes I think all the way to get things done it is a legitimate legal action just because it'sall true, although with different techniques.
