You have an employee who is neither able to complete the task because of a lack of experience with it, nor willing or interested in completing it. According to Hersey and Blanchard (1988) which type of leadership style should you use and why?
What will be an ideal response?
The leader must be more directive and give specific advice about how to get the
job done. This is not the time to focus on interpersonal relationship building since the
need is to understand first how to get the task done. Hersey and Blanchard describe this
style as telling. The leader must tell the group exactly how the job is to be done.
Directions and instructions are the most critical leadership behaviors needed.
