Thoughts on the modern leader and his organizational environment

Abstract

Power and especially the power to influence human beings, power to unite persons within an organization and society cannot be ignored because of the important role it plays. It is a capacity that can be used to make or destroy human life, society and well being. In order to understand power, it is necessary to know the agents of power, how they wield it and for what object. In our modern environment the agents of power face a changing society that is more Democratic. I mean by democracy that “at the heart of the democratic ideal lies the notion of equal freedom for all to deliberate the aims of society”.
