1.1            BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Leadership is an important area in management that occupies a central position in our every dealing with people. One thing among human group is that there is always a leader otherwise the group cannot live to achieve its purpose.

The success in leading a group is contingent upon both leaders ability to hold power effectively and the existence of an opportunistic situation. The problems which results within organizational member disagree on both the nature of the leadership.  Leadership as we use the term in this work refers to behaviour undertaken within the content of an organization that influence the ways in which other organization members behave

It could be observed that leadership and management envisages deeply into what the organization on can achieve if the quality of recognition is   according to them leadership has been propounded to include the sources of influence that are built into position in an organization hierarchy. These include organization sanctioned rewards and punishment authority and also experts power  it could be seen however that subordinates within the organization do not all seem to enjoy the influence that exist all ever the above organizational hierarch provided by their rulers in  the organization.

Leadership is very important in an organization because within leadership there will be no achievement leadership includes the ultimate sources of power but has positive ability in persuading other and to be innovative in decision making. Problems are bound to occur in an organization decision making could sometimes lead to disagreement or conflict but the duty of the leader it to settle every conflict to achieve organizational goals. The mention of leadership at include that help a group to achieve those stated objectives (Bawelas 1960).

FACTORS INFLUENCING TEACHERS’ EFFECTIVENESS IN PUBLIC SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN NIGERIA

          Similarly, the National Curriculum Association conference held in 1969 described the teacher as the “Keyman in the entire educational programme”.  The implication of the foregoing for educational policy makers in particular and the society at large is that, adequate attention should be paid to teachers’ welfare in all its ramifications.  This should be the case as point out by Edem (1987):The curriculum however well developed and however properly interpreted, will come for short of our hopes unless it is applied by teachers who are themselves the product of its philosophy. In a situation where teachers are left to their fate to face the rigours of academic and in some cases administration work, there is the high tendency that they would decline both in efficiency and effectiveness.  Worst still, inspite of these rigours they are being poorly motivated in terms of salary remunerations.  According to Borton (1981) “Education is not just for personal survival or to increase one’s income or power over others, but it is for enriching one’s life for personal growth beyond survival and income”.  While agreeing with his view, the question is will it also be justifiable for teachers to use their meager income for the provision of school facilities, materials and equipment needed for effective school work to progress?  If the answer to this question is positive, according to Byme (1981) there is a danger that the teacher will lose his initial keenness in teaching for something better. Moreover, the nature of teachers earns them the regards as experts who know more than their students.  This may involve answering questions, correcting or validating the students’ work or what they have said.  For the teacher to remain as an expert, there must be a continuous in-service training programme for him and the urge to expand his breadth of understanding. In a situation where there is little or no in-service training programmes and other opportunities for the teachers to widen their knowledge, it is obvious that they will become incompetent.  This is further buttressed by Wilbert (1978) when he said that the teacher’s ability to remain well informed on new developments in his ability to make creative and critical judgments concerning the main trends in his field bear directly upon his competence as an expert.   In other words, if teachers are behind time and obsolete in their disciplines, their effectiveness becomes questionable. Teachers’ performance can be said to be the ability of the teacher to effectively and efficiently carry out the following duties:
