LEADERSHIP MODEL DIFFERENT LEADERSHIP MODEL FIEDLER’S CONTINGENCY MODEL ¤ A contingency model of leadership, it was developed by Fred Fiedler and his associates.
¤ Build upon the previous distinction between
task and employee orientation and suggests that the most appropriate leadership style depends on an analysis of nature of the situation facing the leader. FIEDLER’S CONTINGENCY MODEL MANAGER are encourage to: ¤ Use their analytical skill to examine their situation the people, task and organization. ¤ Draw upon their research based knowledge to see the casual relationship between situation and style effectiveness. ¤ Be flexible in the contingent use of various skills within an overall style. FIEDLER’S CONTINGENCY MODEL MANAGER are encourage to: ¤ Reflectively modify elements of their situations to obtain a better match with their preferred style. ¤ Examine a subordinates preferred style before placing him/her in a supervisory role. HERSEY AND BLANCHARD’S SITUATIONAL LEADERSHIP MODEL ¤ Also called as life-cycle model developed by Paul Hersey and Kenneth Blanchard. ¤ They suggest that the most important factor in affecting the selection of a leaders style is the development (maturity) level of a subordinate. DEVELOPMENT LEVEL > is the tasks-specific combination of an employee’s task competence and motivation to perform (commitment) LEADERSHIP MODEL ● Delegating style: A low-task, low-relationship style wherein the leader allows the group to take responsibility for task decisions. This is best used with high maturity followers. ● Participating style: A low-task, high-relationship style that emphasizes shared ideas and decisions. Managers can use this style with moderate followers who are experienced but may lack the confidence to do the tasks assigned. LEADERSHIP MODEL ● Selling style: A high-task, high-relationship style in which the leader attempts to sell their ideas to the group by explaining task directions in a persuasive manner. This, too, is used with moderate followers. Unlike the previous style, these followers have the ability but are unwilling to do the job. ● Telling style: A high-task, low-relationship style wherein the leader gives explicit directions and supervises work closely. This style is geared toward low maturity followers. THE PATH-GOAL MODEL OF LEADERSHIP ¤ It was presented by Matin G. Evans and was developed by Robert House and its associates. ¤ It states that the leader’s job is to use structure, support, and rewards to create a work environment that helps employees reach the organizations goal.
