Autocratic - This leadership or management style is a "Julius Caesar" approach to management which relies on authority and obedience-based relationships. These relationships are often very rigid, regimented and closely controlled by the leader or manager., Democratic - This leadership or management style works to the notion of "Let my people decide". These leaders refer everything possible and abide by the group decision., Laissez-faire - This approach to leadership and management is one that "never make waves". Quite the opposite to the Autocrat, this leader avoids making decisions and often leaves things exactly as they are, or asks someone else to lead them. Many remember the term by associating the word with ‘lazy’, which is a highly likely behaviour in this style, but can also apply very positively to working relationships where the leader is applying full trust and autonomy to a team member for a task or project., Situational - This leadership theory suggests that no single leadership style is best. Instead, it depends on which type of leadership and strategies are best suited to the task. According to this theory, the most effective leaders are those that are able to adapt their style to the situation and look at cues such as the type of task, the nature of the group, and other factors that might contribute to getting the job done., Transformational - This leader is one who works with teams to identify necessary change (often large-scale), creating a vision to guide the change through inspiration, and executing the change in tandem with committed members of a group.,
