The Model Leader : Key Terms and Conditions

The success of a business depends largely on the tenor set by its leadership . The behavior and accountability of management and personnel in concert with a clarity of goals and mission will have a direct impact on the nature of its operation . This shapes what is known as a company 's organizational culture . Such is the general tone in which communication , production and innovation are fostered , either to the achievement or failure of desired outcomes .
