If I had to boil management and leadership down to a small number of points it would look something like this:
1. Find out what workers, superiors, tasks, and processes have the greatest impact on operations and your own rating as a manager, focus on those first above all else. Everyone and every task on the list is important, but some are more important than others.
2. Obtain resources to carry out tasks and equip your workforce. Make sure you reward and retain the best workers in your department, they are essential to productivity.
3. Delegate tasks and choose someone to be your right hand man/woman to help keep things rolling, you can't run a department alone.
4. Communicate effectively, and honestly for long term success. Public speaking courses, courses on rapport building, psychology courses, and sociology courses can all help with this.
5. Optimize where possible, and begin working to improve processes after you have a good working knowledge of the work at hand, and the people in your department.
Your style of leadership will vary depending on the individual workers, and the general atmosphere of the company, that you are working with. Persuasion is pretty easy: get their focus, build rapport, communicate your message, and get commitment to action or -buy in-. Reward and punishment(constructive intervention, group and individual, is something that should be used with great care.

As a student with zero leadership experience about to chair a volunteer group, I'm so glad for this crashcourse! I know my team and all the potential there, and I have to figure out how to get to that potential (without burning anyone out. As a shy ambivalent type who hates talking out or making decisions, I don't seem like the likely candidate to lead, but I know people relate to me easily and I can get to the heart of people's motivations. This is super helpful for improving my weaker skills for the role!

My S. O. is going to school and talks to me about her classes on business and leadership for input. This 10 minute video is literally all her semesters, simplified. Great stuff!
Leadership is a lifestyle, it can apply to everything in your life, and investing in those skills can have a very positive effect on you and other people you interact with.
I would highly recommend reading 'Monday Morning Leadership' by David Cottrell as a follow-up to this video.

Interesting episode
So. from what I learn
A visionary is the spokesman
the Affiliate is the cooperative or gatherer
the Democratic is the architect or builder
the Pacesetter is the one who makes the final decision and organize the time and place
the Coach leader is the teacher and guide for the group.

My god, these videos are so much better than business advice and skill lessons I have had in the past. This is probably the first time I have ever heard -find what works for your personality and interests- instead of -do everything this way even if it feels completely unnatural and makes you feel miserable. -

There is actually very little in the video about actual leadership. The whole lecture is about management and management styles, not leadership. Leadership, by definition, has to meet certain qualifications and it has to meet them all. Miss one qualification and it's no longer leadership.

I'm a terrible leader but somehow I'm a leader. I usually try to meet people where they are and draw the best out of them. Over time I've gotten a lot better at taking charge when I need to and I'm good at working with small amounts of people.

A book I'm currently reading on Amazon kindle titled Cerebral Currency brought me here. Great book! I highly recommend for peeps like me in their twenties. It made me start doing research on a lot of personal development strategies.

I haaaaaate having to go to parties, dinners, drinks, etc or get poems and token gifts from coworkers and managers. I'd rather get a funny meme text or get to go home early and still get paid for a whole day.

Basically ot comes out to an advice that we keep repeating in Romania: use the Ohm law:
if you are man with me, i will be man with you.
(In romania it makes sence because Ohm is close to -om=man-)
