  12. LEADERSHIP STYLES :- The term Leadership Stylerefers to the pattern of behavior, which a Leader adopts to guide his followers towards the attainment of organizational goals. The nature and form of Leadership Style also affected by existing circumstances, time period, personality of leader, his experience, attitude, nature of followers, external environment and so on. Basically and broadly there are three important Leadership Style. READERS ARE THE LEADERS

  13. AUTOCRATIC OR AUTHORITARIAN STYLE :- It is also known as Directive Style. An Autocratic Leader possesses decision-making power and exercise complete control over the subordinates. He uses both positive and negative motivations. For Instance, reward, praise, fear of criticism or punishment. The Positive Motivation is called as Benevolent Autocratic Style and the Negative Motivation is called as Directional or Oppressive Autocratic Style. READERS ARE THE LEADERS

  14. The Autocratic Leader himself decides all his policies. He gives orders to the subordinates and expects them to follow such orders completely without any question. This style may be appropriately used where subordinates are uneducated, unskilled, unwise and inexperienced. READERS ARE THE LEADERS

  15. ADVANTAGES :- Main advantages of Autocratic Style of Leadership are: • It permits quick decisions as a single person takes most of the decisions. • There are many subordinates in the enterprises that prefer to work under centralized authority structure, a Strict Discipline. They get satisfaction from this style. • As there is no consultation with subordinates, confidential matters can be kept secret. READERS ARE THE LEADERS

  16. DISADVANTAGES :- Main disadvantages of Autocratic Style of Leadership are: • Subordinates in the enterprise dislike it specially when it is strict and motivations are lacking. • Frustration, low morale and conflict develop in the enterprise which harms the organizational efficiency. • The success of this type of Leadership entirely depends upon the efficiency of the leader. READERS ARE THE LEADERS

  17. DEMOCRATIC OR PARTICIPATIVE STYLE :- The Democratic Leader involves subordinates in the decision making. He encouraged subordinates to use their full capacities and assume greater responsibilities. The Democratic Leader keeps the subordinates well informed about the matters of their interest and concern, and gives them freedom to think, discuss, express and make decisions. READERS ARE THE LEADERS

  18. Democratic Style is more appropriate where subordinates are educated, skilled, wise and creative. This will help the leader to be the part of a strong and capable force of followers. READERS ARE THE LEADERS

  21. FREE-REIGN OR LAISSEZ-FAIRE OR PERMISSIVE STYLE :- In Free-Reign Style the subordinates are given a goal to achieve in their own way or sometimes they themselves decide their group goals. In this style the leader behaves as the member of the group. He gives his opinion and suggestion only when it is demanded from him. READERS ARE THE LEADERS

  22. The Free-Reign Style is appropriate where subordinates themselves are very well trained and highly knowledgeable about their tasks and ready to assume extra responsibilities. This style is valid when the company has an effective communication network acceptable to the subordinates and where the leader is ready to compromise with the status in the group and is interested in giving the whole authority to the subordinates. READERS ARE THE LEADERS

  23. ADVANTAGES :- Main advantages of Free-Reign Style of Leadership are: • It provides complete freedom to the subordinates so that their motivation and morale can be improved. • There is a full scope for creativity on the part of the subordinates.
