INTRODUCTION OF THE STUDY
Leadership is an abstract quality in a human being to induce others to do whatever they are directed to do with
zeal and confidence. It is a quality or ability of an individual to persuade others to seek defined objectives
enthusiastically. The leader is a force of the organization that designs, executes, coordinates, and controls all the
functions of an organization, i.e. planning, executing, organizing, directing, and controlling. Leadership
inspires; creates confidence; helps the team mates to give their maximum for the attainment of objectives. In a
business organization, managers at all levels, by whatever name called, are leaders because they all have
subordinates whose efforts are canalized in a definite direction. A leader gives a company the life which creates
the products and innovations that it sells. Effective leaders develop a team of effective employees, subordinates
or followers, and they together develop a more effective organization.

In order to run the organizations effortlessly, effectively and efficiently, the most important and valued factor
organizations need are Human resources. The success of an organization depends on the diligent, loyal and
concerned managers and employees. Leadership is required in every organization at every level, the success or
failure of an organization depends on the quality of leadership particularly on the part of top management. In
this competitive era where world has become a global village, firms are considered to be competitive on the
basis of competence of their human resources. Management of employees mostly depends on the quality of
leadership organizations have (Albioon & Gagliardi, 2007). Concept of leadership is not a new concept in the
field of social science studies. In the recent years, the area of leadership has been widely studied more than any
other aspect of human resource management.

Peter. F. Drucker considers leadership as a human characteristic which lifts a man’s vision to higher sights;
raises and builds his performance to higher standards, and builds man’s personality beyond its normal limits.
Leadership is an important abstract quality of the leader that sets apart a successful organization from an
unsuccessful one. Leadership is, therefore, regarded as the process of influencing the activities of an individual
towards goal achievement in a given situation. This process has been explained by Hersey and Blanchard in the
form of the following equation:

L=f (l, f, s) Leadership is a function of leader (l), the followers (f) and other situational variables(s).

LEADERSHIP DEFINITIONS:

•Leadership is Inter-Personal influence exercised in a situation and directed through communication process,
towards the attainment of a specialized goal and goals. - Robert Tannehbaum

•Leadership is that combination of qualities by the possession of which one able to get something done by
others, chiefly because, through his influence, they become willing to do so. - Ordway Tead

•Leadership is the ability to secure desirable actions from a group of followers voluntarily without the use of
coercion. - Alford and Beatty
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

1. To study the style of leadership at ALCATEL.

2. To analyze the perception of the team members about their team leader.

3. To study the kind of relationship exists between team leader and team members.

4. To find out what kind of LEADER SHIP STYLES are existed in the teams of C-Dot Alcatel.

5. To suggest strategies to enhance team performance.


NEED FOR THE STUDY

Leadership style concepts may be valuable in identifying strengths and weaknesses of current and future
leaders, and leadership style inventories and assessments are available. They can also be used to identify what
kind of leader is needed for a particular organization at a particular time and assist in choosing someone who
has the desired leadership approach. Finally, they can be useful in increasing a leader’s self-awareness of his or
her own leadership preferences and approaches for the purpose of self -development.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY

The study analyses the type of leadership style adopted by the top level management for the functioning of the
organization. As there are various type of styles adopted by different leaders in various organization. The study
covers the leadership styles in C-DOT ALCATEL and its impact on the effective functioning of the
organization.
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

•The time period for carrying out the research was short as result of which many facts have been left
unexplored.

•Sample size was restricted to 50.

•While collection of the data many employees were unwilling to fill the questionnaires. Respondents were
having a feeling of wastage of time for them.
INDUSTRY PROFILE
The telecom industry has been divided into two major segments, that is, fixed and wireless cellular services for this
report. Besides, internet services, VAS, PMRTS and VSAT also have been discussed in brief in the report.

In today’s information age, the telecommunication industry has a vital role to play. Considered as the backbone of
industrial and economic development, the industry has been aiding delivery of voice and data services at rapidly
increasing speeds, and thus, has been revolutionizing human communication.

Although the Indian telecom industry is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world, the current tele density or
telecom penetration is extremely low when compared with global standards. India’s tele density of 36.98% in FY09 is
amongst the lowest in the world. Further, the urban tele density is over 80%, while rural tele d ensity is less than 20%,
and this gap is increasing. As majority of the population resides in rural areas, it is important that the government takes
steps to improve rural tele density. No doubt the government has taken certain policy initiatives, which in clude the
creation of the Universal Service Obligation Fund, for improving rural telephony. These measures are expected to
improve the rural tele-density and bridge the rural-urban gap in tele-density.

Indian telecom sector is more than 165 years old. Telecommunications was first introduced in India in 1851 when the
first operational land lines were laid by the government near Kolkata (then Calcutta), although telephone services were
formally introduced in India much later in 1881. Further, in 1883, telephone services were merged with the postal
system. In 1947, after India attained independence, all foreign telecommunication companies were nationalized to form
the Posts, Telephone and Telegraph (PTT), a body that was governed by the Ministry of Communicatio n. The Indian
telecom sector was entirely under government ownership until 1984, when the private sector was allowed in
telecommunication equipment manufacturing only. The government concretized its earlier efforts towards developing
R&D in the sector by setting up an autonomous body – Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT) in 1984 to
develop state-of-the-art telecommunication technology to meet the growing needs of the Indian telecommunication
network. The actual evolution of the industry started after the Government separated the Department of Post and
Telegraph in 1985 by setting up the Department of Posts and the Department of Telecommunications (DoT).

The entire evolution of the telecom industry can be classified into three distinct phases.

Phase I- Pre-Liberalization Era (1980-89)

Phase II- Post Liberalization Era (1990-99)

Phase III- Post 2000

Until the late 90s the Government of India held a monopoly on all types of communications – as a result of the
Telegraph Act of 1885. As mentioned earlier in the chapter, until the industry was liberalized in the early nineties, it was
a heavily government-controlled and small-sized market, Government policies have played a key role in shaping the
structure and size of the Telecom industry in India. As a result, the Indian telecom market is one of the most liberalized
market in the world with private participation in almost all of its segments. The New Telecom Policy (NTP -99) provided
the much needed impetus to the growth of this industry and set the trend for liberalization in the industry.

CHAPTER - 2
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Different scholars in social sciences have highlighted a variety of leadership styles.

Elance & Aggarwal (1975), investigated the leadership behavior taking different variables affecting the
leadership style along with delegation of authority of 123 executives from public and private sector. They found
that 67% executives in private sector and 57% in public sector units have employed democratic decision style or
leadership.

Norman (1970), the women in leadership position were found by Norman to be women of high intelligence,
confidence, composed, preserving, experimenting, liberal, socially precise, self-motivated and calculating, with
an intellectual approach to situations. They could maintain cordial relations with their superiors. He conducted a
study of women in leadership position in north California.

Singh (1978), in a study of leadership behavior found that total leadership was significantly related to the four
personality factors: outgoingness, intelligence, emotional stability and assertiveness. He conducted a study of
leadership behavior of head of secondary school in the state of Haryana.

Noel. M Tichy,David.O. Ulrich (1984), author purport that a new brand of leadership-transformational
leadership is the key to revitalizing large U.S corporations such as general motors, AT&T, general electric etc.
Based on the premise that the pressure for basic organizational change will intensify, mnot diminish, over the
years, they argue that transformational leaders must develop a new vision for the organization. Mobilize
employees to accept and work towards achieving the new vision and institutionalize the needed changes. Unless
the creation of this breed of leaders becomes a national agenda, the authors are not very optimistic about the
revitalization of the U.S economy. Based on the premise that the pressure for basic organizational change will
intensify, the authors concluded that transformational leadership is required for revitalizing our organizations.
Ultimately, its upto our leaders to choose the right kind of leadership and corporate lifestyle.

Reichmann (1991), examined the characteristics of team leaders in higher education. Team leaders exhibited
certain characteristics including conceptual leadership and attributes such as honesty, integrity and a sense of
fairness. He conducted a study on team leader effectiveness, high performance teams in higher education and
mainly observed the characteristics of team leaders.

North house (2001), leadership is described as the selection of bases of influence. The transformational
approach views leadership as a shared process. The outcome of this process is the ability to transform oneself,
others, and the organization to new, unimagined heights of motivation and performance.

Alpana Priyabhashini, Venkat R. Krishnan (2005), studied the relationship between transformational leadership,
leader’s expectation from follower (pygmalion effect) and follower’s readiness for promotion using a sample of
101 managers from two organizations in India. Respondents answered questions on their readiness for
promotions and on their superior’s transformational leadership and expectations. The readiness for promotion
was captured through two dimensions. The first one related to motivation of the subordinate to perform and to
rise. The second dimension was measured on confidence of the subordinate. The results showed that leader’s
expectation was significantly positively correlated to follower’s readiness for promotion. Each of the five
factors of transformational leadership was significantly was significantly positively correlated to leader’s
expectation. Readiness for promotion is positively related to only three factors of transformational leadership-
idealized influence, inspirational motivation and intellectual stimulation and is not related to the fourth factor-
individualized consideration. Results also showed that leader’s expectation mediates.

David.M.Harold, Donald.B.Fedor (2008), in this study, investigated the effect of transformational and change
leadership on employee’s commitment to a change. The effects of transformational leadership on the outcomes
of specific change initiatives are not well understood.

Omar Bin Sayeed, Meera Shankar (2009), in their study attempted to examine multivariate relationships
between emotional intelligence and transformational leadership. The canonical correlation between emotional
intelligence and transformational leadership dimensions revealed significant relationships, which confirmed
emotional intelligence as an important element of managerial temperament.

Vimal Babu (2011), studies have emphasized that expatriates leadership styles play a pivotal role. It has been
considered as a prime criterion to be successful and effective in the host country. Study has examined 25
Japanese and 23 American expats in India focusing on their leadership styles. In order to determine the
leadership styles of these managers from altogether different countries, the study has investigated ten leadership
components. Results were analyzed to identify the differences and similarities between the leadership styles.
Statistical tests revealed that there were significant differences on four leadership components out of ten and the
remaining six leadership components had non-significant differences. Results showed that American managers
had good communication skills. Japanese managers often motivated their subordinates to work harder by stating
clearly what the desired performance is and what is not. American managers had more knowledge and skills to
transfer and train their subordinates. The study also sheds light on the implications for expatriates with regard to
leadership effectiveness.

Rezvan Mirsafaei Rizi, Aida Azadi, Maryam Eslami Farsani, Shahram Aroufzad (2013), relationship between
leadership styles and job satisfaction among physical education organization employees in Isfahan. Results
showed that the positive correlation between overall leadership styles and job satisfaction was significant at the
level of P<0.05. Also, the correlations between leadership styles sub-scales such as transactional leadership,
transformational leadership and passive/avoidant leadership and job satisfaction was significant at the level of
P<0.05. Based on these results, among determinants of job satisfaction, leadership is viewed as an important
predictor and plays a central role.
CHAPTER - 3
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
MEANING:

Research is a serious academic activity with the set of objectives to explain or analyze or understand a problem
or finding solutions for the problems by adopting a systematic approach in collecting, organizing the
information relating to the problem.

RESEARCH = SEARCH OF OLD THING + FIND OUT NEW THING

Research is defined as human activity based on intellectual application in the investigation of matter. The
primary aim for applied research is discovering, interpreting, and the development of methods and systems for
the advancement of human knowledge on a wide variety of scientific matters of our world and the universe. It is
exploratory and often driven by the researcher’s curiosity, interest, and intuition. It is conducted without any
practical end in mind, although it may have unexpected results pointing to practical applications.

“Research means search for knowledge” sometimes it may refer to a scientific and systematic search for
pertinent information on a specific topic. In fact research is an art of scientific investigation.

SAMPLING:

Sampling is a part of the population or a subject of unit, which is provided by some process or others usually by
deliberate selection with the object of investigation. Here the sample survey is conducted for collection of the
data from the employees of “C-DOT ALCATEL”.

SAMPLE STRUCTURE:

For the purpose of this “A Study on Leader Ship Styles of the Top management MBA HR Project” study
sample has been collected from employees working in C-DOT ALCATEL, total 50 of sample were collected
among that 20 of female and 30 males there.

SAMPLE SIZE:

The total sample size for the analysis was 50 respondents of “C-DOT ALCATEL”

Under simple random sampling each member of the population has known & equal chance of being selected. A
selection tool frequency used with its design is random number tables.

SAMPLING TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES:

Data has been analyzed by using, cross tabulations. From the total 50 members for the purpose of finding
overall leader ship styles, I analyzed the teams as single team wise and I compared the all teams to know what
leader ship styles are followed by the C-DOT ALCATEL.

Statistical tools like tabulation, graphic representations & percentages analysis are used in the computation of
data.

DATA COLLECTION METHOD:

To accomplish the objective of the study, descriptive research design is adopted to collect the data from the
employers of the company. Descriptive researches simply describe things such as style of leadership has been
performed in the organization. The descriptive study is typically concerned with determining the frequency with
which same thing occurs. This study is typically guided by initial hypothesis. In this study, collected two types
of data.

1. Primary Data

2. Secondary Data

1. Primary data:
The source of primary data used in my project is the questionnaire. Primary are the raw data like
raw material. Primary data are according to object of investigation and used without correction. The
collection of primary data requires large sum, energy and time. Precautions are not necessary in the
use of the primary data.

For this study the primary data is collected in three ways:

• Through observations

• Through questionnaires

• Through sampling procedure

2. Secondary data:

The secondary data is collected about the study is from various sources where information is
available like,

a) Organizational web site

b) Company Past records

c) Internet

d) Books

e) Magazines

SAMPLE DESIGN:

“Sampling may be defined as the selection of an aggregate or totally on the basis of which a judgment of
reference about the aggregate of totally is made.” Sampling is used in conducting surveys and in studying
various problems concerning production management, time and motion studies, market research, various areas
of accounting and finance and the like.

The sample design of a sample survey refers to the techniques for selecting a probability sample and the
methods to obtain estimates of the survey variables from the selected sample.

Sample design covers the method of selection, the sample structure and plans for analyzing and interpreting the
results. Sample designs can vary from simple to complex and depend on the type of information required and
the way the sample is selected.

CONCLUSION
The experience and knowledge that I gained during the entire project was a whole new and a very
interesting experience. I learnt many new things in the due course of time like how important is LEADERSHIP
STYLE upon conducting this research, new findings were discovered. However, the main objectives of this
research were achieved. The research managed to determine the relationship between the employer & the
employee, goals/missions/objectives, age /income with the workers. From the analysis conducted to test
relationships, all three attributes had a significant relationship with leadership style. Finally, to conclude it all,
future research is still needed to justify and strengthen the outcomes of this research. There may have been
research similar to this topic but the situations in all the researches may be different, including this research.
Therefore, future researchers are welcomed to conduct a similar research as this in the same context.
