The Bond scholars identified seven clusters of destructive leader behaviors. Discuss each “cluster” in a minimum of one sentence.
What will be an ideal response?
Cluster 1: This type of leader makes poor decisions (often based on inadequate
information), lies and engages in other unethical behavior, cannot deal with new
technology, and typically fails to prioritize and delegate.
Cluster 2: This type of leader lacks critical skills. She or he is unable to negotiate or
persuade and cannot develop or motivate subordinates.
Cluster 3: This type of leader makes good decisions and has the necessary leadership skills
but is overly controlling and micromanages followers.
Cluster 4: This type of leader can’t deal with conflict but plays favorites and behaves
inconsistently.
Cluster 5: This type of leader isn’t all that bad but isn’t all that good either. Leaders in this
category don’t seek information from others, don’t change their minds, and don’t do a good
job of coordinating followers.
Cluster 6: This type of leader isolates the group from the rest of the organization.
Cluster 7: This type of leader creates a situation of “significant misery and despair.” Leaders
in this group are brutal and bullying, frequently lying and engaging in other unethical
behavior.
