Organisational leadership is a management technique in which leaders help set the
organisation’s strategic objectives while encouraging individuals within the group to carry out
tasks effectively in support of those goals. Effective Leadership is based on a strong
framework consisting of a specific mission, a vision for the future, a particular plan, and a
success-oriented community. Successful organisations are created by successful leaders. Let’s look at Elon Musk as an example
n Musk is the co-founder and CEO of Tesla Motors and is a leader who is passionate
about his work. He sets high expectations for his company, his team and also for himself too.
Musk follows an Authoritative Style of leadership. He has a bold, persistent personality that
will not accept failure. He’s also an organised person with inspirational ideas and intense
focus on his work. He is a leader who pushes people until they reach their full potential.
He possesses a lot of Leadership Qualities ans styles. Some of his qualities and traits includeLeading with Purpose, Being comfortable with change, Operating with Integrity, Being a
continuous learner, Having a clear strategic vision and focusing on the big picture. He has
earned the trust of his employees and followers by being reliable in situations that are
uncertain.Elon musk is one such leader that works really hard to ensure the success of his
companies and claims that he often sleeps at his Tesla manufacturing plant because he
doesn’t have time to go home. His drive to work for long hours often means that he expects
his employees to do the same.
At his Tesla Cybertruck launch event Elon Musk had claimed that the glass of the car could
withstand a blow from a metal ball, but when his colleague hurled the ball at the truck, the
glass broke in a spider web pattern. However Musk didn’t get angry. In fact, he laughed off
the mistake and said, “Well, it didn’t t go through! Not bad.” This shows a softer side to his leadership style
Musk says “Failure is an option here. If things are not failing, you are not innovating
enough.”He took that as an opportunity to learn and innovative. Elon helps and encourages
his workers to step out of the conventional way of thinking to bring forward all their new
ideas even though they may fail. Thus in courage innovation. In any scenario, good leaders
are able to adapt and continue to drive forward towards the goals of their team. They
understand how to enable their teams to leverage their strengths to find solutions and
innovate, whatever comes their way

architect of Tesla Motors. Tesla only being worth $414.65 Billion. He is the 39th wealthiest
