Abstract
Effective communication is central to leadership, serving as a crucial tool for leaders to instil a sense of meaningfulness among the members. While existing literature explores various
leader behaviors that promote this sense of meaningfulness, a comprehensive framework for understanding how leaders achieve this remains elusive. This paper extends the theory
of leadership by applying the widely accepted tripartite model of meaningfulness, which comprises coherence, purpose, and significance to the leadership context and also provides
useful pointers to leaders in various contexts. It also brings out the nuances in meaning making in diverse situations by analysing leadership communication following successful and failed space missions.
