A Qualitative Study of Effective Leadership in the Non-Governmental Organization (N.G.O) Health Sector

Abstract

No leadership style can address the difficulties or obstacles that the organization faces daily to achieve its goals. However, a combination of different leadership styles can assist in addressing the different decision-making challenges that are faced. The majority of people in Africa do not respect leadership as highly as they ought to, even though it is the primary factor that determines whether an organization succeeds or fails if it is not well implemented. It is a qualitative study that assesses the effectiveness of two non-profit organizations’ leadership styles, and an organization needs strong leadership to do the tasks it has set out to do. In the case of the Society for Family Health, early leadership performance was very good and contributed a lot to the organization’s success when it was successful. However, this same factor also led to the organization’s downfall in later years.
