Abstract

On the one hand, when leadership manifests itself, the roles assumed by the leader are extremely important, but, on the other hand, the roles assumed by the members of an organisation are important as well. “Shaping” the future is made starting from several variables: the evolution of technology, the cultural conflicts, the uneven economic developments, the diversity of contexts which very often do not depend on “actors”, the quality of political leaders, and the complexity of social problems that arise. In light of these variables, leadership can play a decisive role to the extent that suitable individuals appear in crisis situations, individuals who use a visionary and creative leadership which is influenced by the values in which people find themselves. We can speak of a favourable direction in terms of development to the extent that the leadership has the ability to influence social groups to act in a certain way as to achieve certain goals shared by the group. The aim of our paper is to present some of the current concerns regarding leadership and its evolution in relation to the evolution of society in general starting from the dramatic changes occurring in the economic, social, political, technological and cultural fields and also to highlight some of the future directions of leadership. The research methodology is based on literature review.
