4. LEADERSHIP STYLE
• A leadership style is a leader's method of
providing direction, implementing plans,
and motivating people.
• Various authors have proposed identifying
many different leadership styles as
exhibited by leaders in the political,
business or other fields.

5. FRED ROBERTS
The style approach emphasizes the behaviour of the leader. The style approach
focuses exclusively on what leaders do and how they act. Within this style of leadership
there are two general kinds of behaviours,
• TASK BEHAVIOURS
• Task behaviour is an employee's response
to a task-based environment in which this
employee operates. The term describes how
employees perform their tasks and whether
the environment appears to be responsive to
their task performance.

6. ACCORDING TO FRED ROBERTS
• RELATIONSHIP BEHAVIOURS
• Relationship behaviour concerns how
people interact together to achieve a goal.
Leading is still primarily task behaviour,
but now it includes some relationship
behaviour. Participating leadership shifts
the balance toward relationship behaviour
and away from task behaviour.

7. FINDING THE RIGHT STYLE OF
LEADERSHIP
• A leader can take a number of different
approaches to leading and managing an
organization. A leader's style of providing
direction, setting strategy, and motivating
people is the result of his or her personality,
values, training, and experience.

9. PARTICIPATIVE OR DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP
• A participative or democratic style of leadership
involves the leader's sharing decision- making
authority with group members. This approach
values the perspectives and interests of
individual group members while also
contributing to team . Participative leadership
can help employees feel more invested in
decision outcomes and more committed to the
choices because they have a say in them.

10. ENGAGING LEADERSHIP
• Engaging styles of leadership involve
reaching out to employees and
understanding their concerns and working
situations.
• Dr. Stephen , the senior vice president for
right management's leadership development
center of excellence, describes the engaging
leadership style as communicating relevant
information to employees and involving them
in important decisions. This leadership style
can help retain employees for the long term.

11. AUTOCRATIC/AUTHORITARIAN LEADERSHIP
• Autocratic leadership, is a leadership style characterized by
individual control over all decisions and little input from group
members.
• Autocratic leaders typically make choices based on their ideas
and judgments and rarely accept advice from followers. Under
the autocratic leadership style, decision-making power is
centralized in the leader.
• The autocratic management is effective for quick decision
making but is generally not successful in employee
engagement or maintaining worker satisfaction.

12. LAISSEZ-FAIRE/FREE-REIN LEADERSHIP
• A person may be in a leadership position
without providing clear direction, leaving
the group to choose its own path in
achieving aims. Subordinates are given a
free hand in deciding their own policies and
methods.
• Laissez-faire is most effective when
workers have the skills to work
independently, are self-motivated, and will
be held accountable for results.

13. TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP
• The transformational leadership style
emphasizes motivation and morale to inspire
followers to change their behaviour in service
of a greater good.
• The concept was initially introduced by James
Macgregor Burns. According to Burns,
transformational leadership is when "leaders
and followers make each other advance to
a higher level of morality and motivation."
