leadership style trait theory autocratic democratic laissez-faire

  • Trait theories ignored the assumptions about whether leadership traits were genetic or acquired.
  • two traits; emergent traits (those which are heavily dependent upon heredity) as height, intelligence, attractiveness, and self-confidence and effectiveness traits (based on experience or learning), including charisma, as fundamental component of leadership
  • o leadership style is precise as a stand-alone as the leadership style used is reliant upon the factors such as the quality, situation of the followers or a number of other variable

  • In most cases, leaders do not change only the dynamics and environment, employees within the organization change.
  • Like one that does not fit all heads, similarly one style cannot be effective in all situations.
  • democratic leaders
  • three different leadership styles
  • Laissez faire leadership
  • autocratic leaders
  • Different researchers proposed that three types of leaders, they were; autocratic, democratic and laissez-faire.
  • “He further assumed that all leaders could fit into one of these three categories”.

    I found this article useful because not only did it give description of the different leadership style but also went into detail about the different theories. I am familiar with the trait theory, however the rest were fairly new to me.

    Disciplines > Leadership > Styles There are a number of different approaches, or 'styles' to leadership and management that are based on different assumptions and theories. The style that individuals use will be based on a combination of their beliefs, values and preferences, as well as the organizational culture and norms which will encourage some styles and discourage others.

  • This study was motivated by the premise that no nation grows further than the quality of its educational leaders.
  • The
  • purpose of this theoretical debate is to examine the wider context of leadership and its effectiveness towards improving school management.

  • To many, leaders are not born, but made. It is increasingly accepted, however, that in order to be a good leader, one must have the experience, knowledge, commitment, patience, and most importantly the skill to negotiate and work with others to achieve goals.
  • Good leaders are thus made, not born
  • Great man theories assume that the capacity for leadership is inherent, that great leaders are born, not made
  • the trait theory assumes that people inherit certain qualities or traits make them better suited to leadership.
  • Contingency theories of leadership focus on particular variables related to the environment that might determine which style of leadership is best suited for a particular work situation.
  • Situational theory proposes that leaders choose the best course of action based upon situational conditions or circumstances.
  • Behavioural theories of leadership are based on the belief that great leaders are made, not born.
  • articipative leadership theories suggest that the ideal leadership style is one that takes the input of others into account.
  • P
  • Transactional theories, also known as management theories, focus on the role of supervision, organization and group performance and the exchanges that take place between leaders and followers. These theories base leadership on a system of rewards and punishments (Charry, 2012).
  • Relationship theories, also known as transformational theories, focus on the connections formed between leaders and followers. In these theories, leadership is the process by which a person engages with others and is able to “create a connection” that results in increased motivationand morality in both followers and leaders. 
  • This theory states that learned knowledge and acquired skills/abilities are significant factors in the practice of effective leadership. Skills theory by no means refuses to acknowledge the connection between inherited traits and the capacity to lead effectively, but argues that learned skills, a developed style, and acquired knowledge, are the real keys to leadership performance.
  • Autocratic leadership is an extreme form of transactional leadership, where leaders have complete power over staff. Staff and team members have little opportunity to make suggestions, even if these are in the best interest of the team or organization
  • Bureaucratic leaders follow rules rigorously, and ensure that their staff also follow procedures precisely.
  • Charismatic leadership theory describes what to expect from both leaders and followers. Charismatic leadership i
  • a leadership style that is identifiable bu
  • may be perceived with less tangibility than other leadership styles
  • Democratic leaders make the final decisions, but include team members in the decision-making process. They encourage creativity, and team members are often highly engaged in projects and decisions.
  • Laissez-faire leadership may be the best or the worst of leadership styles (Goodnight, 2011). Laissez-faire, this French phrase for “let it be,” when applied to leadership describes leaders who allow people to work on their own. Laissez-faire leaders abdicate responsibilities and avoid making decisions, they may give teams complete freedom to do their work and set their own deadlines.
  • This leadership style starts with the idea that team members agree to obey their leader when they accept a job.

    This really lays it all out. Leadership traits versus styles and how they all relate.
