POSITIVE LEADER THEORY
POSITIVE LEADER THEORY AND ITS USES IN SKILL DEVELOPMENT
Positive leadership and it’s uses in skill development
Positive leadership: As stated by Karaszewski and Lis (2013) positive leadership originates form transformational leadership and flourishes with positive organisational scholarship. It has the emphasis on elevating the individuals and organisation.
Few mutually related strategies to positive leadership are positive relationship,  positive communication and positive climate in the workplace.
A positive leader must not only provide information to its subordinates but should also communicate ideas, beliefs, commitment and enthusiasm so as to develop their skills in the workplace.
World Bible Institute (2019)
Positive leadership skills lead to positive orientation of ideas, beliefs and information which helps to improve the organisation’s positivity process. Positive leadership in a workplace is based on the following:
Optimistic attitude of the leader
Entrepreneurial spirit
Trust between leaders and subordinates
Sense of fairness and justice among engineers
Motivation of team members
2
The slides further aim at describing 
      how a positive leadership could  
      improve the skills of the engineers 
      within a workplace.
As described by Cady, Brodke and Parker (2019) Motivation 
of team members has been
      selected as a positive leadership trait 
      and its effects on skill development in 
      engineers have been discussed here.
Presentation also aims at providing some
      real time examples where motivation by 
      the leaders has helped the engineers to develop 
      their skills.
The aim 
Hakim group (2018)
3
According to Kelly and Cameron (2017) motivation provided by a positive leader to the engineers help to increase commitment of engineers towards their work to innovate and implement new technology along with creativity and willingness to cooperate with each other in a team.
Effective motivation strategy by a positive leader will trigger enthusiasm among the subordinates helping them improve their attitude and determination towards their work to achieve new milestones in the field of research and development.
Theoretical justification of  how motivation leads to skill development
Motivating the engineers is considered as one of the basic responsibilities of a good leader. This trait helps to improve the commitment of 
engineers towards their work as well as help the engineers to align their personal goals with the overall goals of the organisation.
4
Maslow  helps the leaders to capture the essence of motivating system through a five- level hierarchy mentioned by McLeod (2007). 
This includes
Physiological needs
Safety needs
Love and belongingness
Esteem 
Self actualization 
According to this theory leaders can motivate engineers to gain 
      respect and love for themselves among their peers and seniors.
Theoretical justification of  how motivation leads to skill development
Maslow also emphasizes on the fact that subordinates could use different ways to fulfill the same needs. Ways to satisfy the needs are as important 
as important as the ways to determine these needs. 
5
Alderfer established an ERG theory using Maslow’s theory. This theory distinguishes the needs into three categories:
Existence
Relationship
Personal development
      (growth needs)
This theory emphasizes on the 
       fact that identification of individual
       needs by the leader should be the 
       basis for motivation process (Karahanna 
	et al. 2018).
Fulfilling the existence, relatedness
       and growth needs of the engineers will
       help them to work better and come up 
       with new ideas and innovations.
