This document discusses different leadership styles for managing teams effectively. It identifies four situational leadership styles: directing, coaching, supporting, and delegating. The directing style involves close supervision, one-way communication, and the leader defining tasks. Coaching still involves the leader defining roles but seeks input from followers. Supporting facilitates follower decision-making and control. Delegating gives followers most control over decisions but the leader remains involved. No single style works in isolation - effective leaders apply the right blend based on follower personality and tasks to maximize contribution and setup high-performing teams.
