Describe and distinguish between three types of leadership
What will be an ideal response?
The exploitive-authoritarian leader has no confidence or trust in subordinates, and subordinates are not allowed to provide input into decisions. Policies and decisions are formulated by top management and filter down the chain of command. There is little superior-subordinate interaction, and when there is, it is usually negative or directive in nature. The benevolent-authoritarian style is somewhat more positive than the exploitive-authoritarian style. Here, the bulk of policies and decisions are made by top management and are distributed by the chain of command, but sometimes managers and supervisors listen to subordinates' problems. There is more interaction between supervisors and officers than in the exploitive-authoritarian style. The consultative style of leadership is a process whereby management establishes goals and objectives for the organization or department with subordinates making some of the decisions on methods of goal achievement (strategic and tactical decisions). The relationship between superiors and line personnel is relatively positive as problems and possible solutions are discussed openly and freely.
