Effectively leading a team can be a challenging role which can vary tremendously from organization to organization. The old view of leadership is that leaders are chosen for leadership early on in their lives, and that if you’re not a born leader, there’s little that you can do to become one.

A Leader’s role is making sure the employee and the organization are focused on improving production and reducing waste. It helps the employee or individual set and meet their goals and improves the employee manager relationship. This is key in keeping an organization and employee aligned, which improves performance and productivity.
