The Study on the Traits of Leader and Followers of Charismatic Leadership -- The Example of Employees of Port Authority

Summary

Charismatic leadership is one of important viewpoints in the development of leadership theory. For government agencies and state-owned enterprises, the influence of a leader primarily comes from the authorization of legal powers. However, the international ports in Taiwan have form of government organization while have their operational targets and have to face the pressure from competition of international ports as a company in private sector. So the leadership of port management may affect employee¡¦s enthusiasm in work and followers¡¦ intentions to reach organizational goal. With the employees of harbor authority of Kaohsiung Port, that is the world¡¦s sixth biggest container port in 2004 rankings, as the subjects of research, we tried to understand the differences of cognition on charismatic leadership by public servants in the port authority on the characteristics of charismatic leadership and feasibility and directions of charismatic leadership in state-owned ports through interviews and questionnaires. The findings could be a useful reference for the leadership of state-owned ports.       

Introduction

In Chinese, the leadership means a function of interaction that may brings effects into full play and means or tool to achieve goals. Hence it is a relationship of powers and an art for forcing people to comply (Li, 2001). So leadership is an effect and it needs to make a research on people who waive the power of influence and on their various ways to affect others. Leadership is to make oneself as an example to affect others, so effects from charisma may be far stronger than that from power.   

In real world, a well-known excellent manager always has his special traits of personality, shows a leader¡¦s taste, encourages his subordinate¡¦s willing to work and has good ability to communicate with others, shows strength to attract others, lead the team to organizational goals and secure their excellent performance. But, unless a leader could trigger his follower¡¦s motives to work, it is difficult to make people follow him. Therefore, if a team leader has charismatic leadership that could give his subordinate¡¦s ¡§trust¡¨ and ¡§feeling of belonging¡¨, he is sure to win the respect and love from others and reach many difficult works.  

So leadership is a science and even a perfect presentation of art. Because it is a science, the leadership needs basic theory to mould as a basis of implementation. Because it is also an art, so a leader has to do the right thing at right time, suit his measures to local conditions and cleverly weigh the situations (Tsai & Weu, 2004). In modern society, we need excellent leader to lead members at various levels to effectively complete missions given by the organization he belongs to.   

As the leader¡¦s authority in modern democratic society is on decline, if a leader could have knowledge, sense and sensibility in the meantime, he may become one of the most excellent and outstanding leaders in any group. Furthermore, through the research on the characteristics of charismatic leaderships, the leadership could help members of organization perform perfectly on works and organizational harmony.

A Study on the

Traits of Leader and Followers of Charismatic Leadership – The Example of Employees at a Port Authority

Summary

Charismatic leadership is an important concept in the development of leadership theory. For government agencies and state-owned enterprises, the influence of a leader derives primarily from the authorization of legal powers. However, the international ports in Taiwan are structured as government organizations, whereas their operations are targeted at and face competitive pressure from international ports operating as companies in the private sector. Thus, the leadership of port management may affect employee’s enthusiasm in work and followers’ incentives in reaching organizational goals. With employees of the harbor authority of Kaohsiung Port, the world’s sixth largest container port in 2004, as the subjects of research, we tried to understand the differences of cognition of charismatic leadership by public servants in the port authority on the characteristics of charismatic leadership and feasibility and directions of charismatic leadership in state-owned ports through interviews and questionnaires. The findings could be a useful reference for the leadership of state-owned ports.

Introduction

In Chinese, the term “leadership” means a function of interaction that may bring effects into full play and a means or tool to achieve goals. Hence it is a relationship of powers and an art for compelling people to comply (Li, 2001). Thus, leadership is an effect and there is a need for research on people who waive the power of influence and on the various ways they affect others. Leadership is making oneself an example in order to affect others, and the effects of charisma may be far stronger than those that result directly from power.

In the real world, a well-known excellent manager always has special traits of personality, shows a leader’s taste, encourages subordinates’ willingness to work, has good ability to communicate with others, shows strength to attract others, leads the team to organizational goals, and secures the team’s excellent performance. But, unless a leader can trigger his subordinates’ motivations to work, it is difficult to make people follow him. Therefore, if a team leader has charismatic leadership that could give his subordinates’ “trust” and “feeling of belonging,” he is sure to win respect and admiration from others and accomplish many difficult tasks.

Thus, leadership is a science and even a presentation of artistic perfection. Because it is a science, leadership needs a basic theory to mold as a basis of implementation. Because it is also an art, a leader has to do the right thing at right time, tailor measures to local conditions, and cleverly weigh the situations at hand (Tsai & Weu, 2004). In modern society, we need excellent leaders at various levels to effectively complete missions given by the organization to which they belong.

As the leader’s authority in modern democratic society is on the decline, if a leader could have knowledge, sense, and sensibility in the meantime, he may become one of the most excellent and outstanding leaders in any group. Furthermore, through the research on the characteristics of charismatic leadership, the leader can help members of an organization perform work perfectly and harmoniously.
