Influence involves developing trust and enthusiasm between people so that they can develop their talents and abilities. One of the key things in leadership is the existence of a vision, as a kind of picture of the desired future. In addition to vision, leadership includes a whole range of other issues related to influence, such as motivating, communicating, the ability to work in a team, maintaining interpersonal relationships, and more. There are many different types of leaders. Their orientation towards two basic functions is often taken as a criterion - achieving the goals and objectives of the organization and orientation towards people. There are three major approaches to leadership: a) trait theories, b) behavioral theories, c) situational theories.
