This document discusses leadership styles in education. It defines leadership as "the process of communication that involves coaching, motivating, inspiring, directing, guiding and supporting others which leads to the timely production of the predetermined goals." There are four main types of leadership styles: fact-based (Type A), creativity-based (Type B), feelings-based (Type C), and power-based (Type D). When defining one's personal leadership style, a leader should consider their preferred style, the impact on followers, followers' preferred styles, and assigning tasks based on followers' styles.
