Types of Leadership

Cards (3)

  • Autocratic
    This type of leader makes all the decisions without consultation and with little regard for the thoughts and opinions of subordinates/team members.
  • Democratic
    This type of leader is much more consultative and seeks the views and thoughts of subordinates/team members. Participative decision-making is encouraged and actively sought.
  • Laissez-faire
    This is a kind of distributed, delegative type of leader. They take a "hands-off" approach and give authority to subordinates to make their own decisions within groups and manage their own workloads.
