Group 6A# LEADERSHIP STYLES AND THEORY
EARLY LEADERSHIP THEORIES --By Kreitner & Kinicki (2013)
Trait Theory
a theory based on leader traits or personal characteristics that differentiate leaders from
followers.
it was based on the assumption that leadership traits were not inborn and could be
learned through experience and knowledge gained through studies.
Behavioral Theory
a theory that focuses on the behaviour, action, conduct, demeanor, or deportment of a
leader instead of his or her personality traits.
this theory began because of the belief that leader’s behaviour affects group
effectiveness.
it also emphasized that since behaviour is learned ,leader behaviour can also be
learned,in short, leaders are made not born.

CONTEMPORARY LEADERSHIP THEORIES


Fiedler Model ( by Fred Fiedler)
This theory is based on the assumption that a leader’s effectiveness is contingent or
dependent on the extent to which a leader’s style is fitted to actual situations in the
organization’s internal and external environment.
Situational Control, which can be low or high, is also exhibited.
Hersey-Blanchard Model (by Paul Hersey &Ken Blanchard)
The theory focused on the subordinates’ readiness or extent to which the said
subordinates have the ability and willingness to accomplish a specific work assignment.
FOUR STAGES OF THE SUBORDINATES READINESSS
Where the subordinates are both unable and unwilling to accomplish the task.
Where the subordinates are unable but willing to do the task.
Where the subordinates are able but unwilling to do their assigned task.
Where the subordinates are both able and willing to do what the leader wants to complete
the task.
Hersey-Blanchard Model (by Paul Hersey &Ken Blanchard)
States that the leeader’s task is to lead his other followers or subordinates in achieving
their goals by providing them direction needed in order to ensure compatibility of these
said goals with the organization’s goal.
FOUR LEADESHIP BEHAVIORS:
Directive Leadership- where leader gives specific guidelines to followers so that task
accomplishment will be easier;
Supportive Leadership- where the leader shows concern and friendliness to subordinates
Participative Leadership- where the leader asks for suggestion from followers before
decision making; and
Achievement-Oriented Leadership- where the leader sets the goal that subordinates must
try to achieve.
MODERN LEADERSHIP THEORIES
Transactional Leadership Model
This states that leaders guides their subordinates toward the achievement of their
organization’s goals by using social exchange or transactions and by offering rewards in
exchange for their productivity.
Transformational Leadership Model
This states that leaders inspire or transform followers to achieve exttraordinary
outcomes.
Transformational Leadership is strongly correlated with lower turnover rates and higher
level of productivity,employee satisfaction,creativity, goal attainment anf follower well-
being.(Robbin and Coulter,2009)
Charismatic Leadership Theory
states that leaders with charismatic personality are able to influence their subordinates to
follow them.
This pertains to leaders who are self-confident,enthusiastic, and sensitive to both
environmental constraints and subordinates’ needs.
Visionary Leadership Theory
This states that leaders are able to make their subordinates follow because of their ability
to create and articulate a realistic,credible, and attractive vision that may improve
present conditions or circumstances.
Team Leadership Theory
This theory emerged because of the fact that leadership is increasingly taking place within
a team context and that more companies are now utilizing work teams led or guided by
leaders.
Servant Leadership Theory (Robert Greenleaf,1970)
This states that servant-leaders must focused on increased service to others rather than
to one’s self.
