LEADERSHIP STYLESLEADERSHIP STYLES

• There are several different forms of leadership style:

• autocratic,

• bureaucratic,

• democratic,

• and laissez-faire

AUTOCRATICAUTOCRATIC

• Autocratic leadership style can be is likely to make decisions without input from staff,

• to give orders without explanation or defense, and to expect the orders to be obeyed

• employees become dependent on supervisors for instructions.

• Autocratic leadership is a classical leadership style marked by leaders having complete authority with leaders issuing commands without explaining the rationale, and followers obeying instructions of the leader without questioning.

BUREAUCRATICBUREAUCRATIC

• a supervisor manages ‘‘by the book.’’

• The leader relies on the property’s rules, regulations, and procedures for decisions that he makes.

• To the employees, their leader appears to be a ‘‘police officer.’’

• This style is appropriate when the employees can be permitted no discretion in the decisions to be made.

DEMOCRATICDEMOCRATIC

• also called participative leadership style is almost the reverse of the autocratic style.

• A democratic supervisor wants to share decision-making responsibility.

• The employer strongly considers the opinions of employees and seeks theirthoughts and suggestions.

• All employees are informed about all matters that concern them.

LAISSEZ-FAIRELAISSEZ-FAIRE

• Laissez-faire (also called free-reign) leadership style refers to a hands-off approach in which the supervisor actually does as little leading as possible.

• In effect, the laissez-faire supervisor delegates all authority and power to the employees.

• The supervisor relies on the employees to establish goals, make decisions, and solve problems
