LEADERSHIP THEORIES

Page 5: Leadership & Teamwork

TRAITS THEORY

• First theory of leadership.

• Thomas Carlyle (1841) can be considered one of the pioneers of the trait theory.

• People are born with leadership qualities.

• Good leaders have the right (or sufficient) combination of traits.

• Future leadership can be predicted, if the leadership abilities in a person are identified.

Page 6: Leadership & Teamwork

GREAT MAN THEORY• Leaders are born and not made.

• Most leadership comes from upper class of society.

• Small number of leaders from lower class of society.

• Leadership is inherited

Page 7: Leadership & Teamwork

BEHAVIORAL THEORY

• Leaders can be made, rather than are born.

• Successful leadership is based on definable, learnable behavior.

• Leadership qualities don’t consider inborn traits

• leadership capability can be learned

• This theory opens the floodgates to leadership development

Page 8: Leadership & Teamwork

CONTINGENCY THEORY

• The leader's effectiveness is dependent upon various factors. e.g. leader's preferred style, capabilities, behaviors etc.

• A leadership style that is effective in some situations may not be successful in others.

• leaders who are very effective at one place and time may become unsuccessful either when transplanted to another situation or when the factors around them change.

LEADERSHIP STYLES

This theory suggests four major styles of leadership.

1) Autocratic

2) Democratic

3) Laissez-faire

4) Paternalistic

Page 10: Leadership & Teamwork

AUTOCRATIC LEADERSHIP STYLE• One man show and “hands off”

• Directs or orders participants on what to do, when to do it and how long to continue.

• The leader may not tell participants reasons for his/her orders.

“Do what I tell you!”

“You MUST do this NOW!”

Page 11: Leadership & Teamwork

DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP • Developing trust and mutual respect

are part of this concept.

• Voting and “majority rule” are elements.

“What do you think”

“Let’s see what the group wants to do”

Page 12: Leadership & Teamwork

LAISSEZ-FAIRE LEADERSHIP• Freedom for making decisions

is given to participants with this leadership style.

• Decisions comes from within the group.

“Make your own decisions to achieve the goals”

Page 13: Leadership & Teamwork

PATERNALISTIC LEADERSHIP• Leader acts as a ‘father figure.’

Storming Establish processes and structures.Build trust   and good relationships   between team members.Resolve conflicts   swiftly if they occur. Provide support, especially to those team members who are less secure.Remain positive   and firm in the face of challenges to your leadership, or to the team's goal.
