Responsible leadership is all about creating and sustaining a good relationship with all the legitimate
stakeholders (Maak and Pless, 2006, p.40). Responsible leaders are those who facilitates the

sportsperson. It can indeed decide whether an organization thrives or fails (Ahmed et al., 2013).

This report will start with an exploration of responsible leadership, discussing the main theories and
concepts that outline its required skills and duties

Understanding Modern Responsible Leadership: A Research Overview.

In the earlier age, leadership was mostly about being in charge or possessing authority over an
organization or a group (Anderson & Sun, 2017). This leadership was later realised as ineffective and
incompetent in the modern age when the business environment started to grow complex and
interconnected. In the modern world, leaders need to manage various complex use cases, lessen the
uncertainty, and inspire their teams with a better vision for the future (Cortellazzo et al., 2019)

accountable and why.

Every thriving organization require a responsible leader to be strengthened throughout its core. A
responsible leader always identifies and seizes opportunities in a limited time frame while inspiring
his team to work towards the common aim- the organization’s success. Responsible leadership isn’t
just about managing or bossing around (Lee, 2018).

with the Research, Dhoni’s leadership style can be categorized in two major ways: Transformational
and Democratic (Zakeer Ahmed et al., 2016). As a transformational leader, he motivated and
recruited new and young talent in the team for future growth.

supporting his teammates at other times. This reflects his visionary mindset and how he evolved
throughout his career as a responsible leader.

II.B. Dhoni’s Responsible Leadership: Its Impact on Stakeholders

The stakeholders in Cricket gameplay, are mostly players, coaching staff, cricket board, fans, sponsors
and the entire nation (Terry, 2013). Dhoni’s responsible leadership has made a significant difference
to all these groups.
