Abstract

Leadership has a decisive impact on the development of organizations in an increasingly complex and dynamic business environment. The paper presents relevant aspects from the sphere of the addressed issues and is structured on three analysis coordinates: leadership, strategic leadership and organizational development. Effective leadership consists in the ability to create a vision, motivate human resources and generate the momentum needed to implement organizational development projects. The paper highlights the three levels at which leadership in organizations is manifested, with special reference to strategic leadership, explaining its general and specific functions. The final section presents some approaches to organizational development, highlighting that leadership is a vector of change processes and, implicitly, an engine of organizational development.
