Abstract
Todays business involves environmental changes. Environmental changes are of two
broad types: continuous change and interrupted change. Consequently, organizations
must change, adapt, and be flexible in order to be efficient. Efficient organizations
adjust to the environmental changes. Thus, modern organizations should have 3
leadership types. The first is competent leadership. Competent leadership refers to
personal traits and qualities, exercising a discretionary time span, maintaining the best
degree of flexibility, identifying and developing potential, motivating and providing
inspiration, paying attention to detail and managing core competencies. Second, high-
performance leadership is personal leadership, tracking leadership and potential
leadership at every level of the organization. Third, leadership as an exercise in virtual
reality is leadership as management, leadership as excellent management, leadership
with values, trustworthy leadership and spiritual leadership. Leadership has become
an important organizational and human quality necessary to manage and respond to
a changing environment.
Keywords: Leader, Leadership, Competent Leadership, High-performance Leadership,
