Introduction:
Have you ever pondered how many leadership styles there are? Are you curious about the importance of
recognizing your own leadership style? Today, we'll delve into "The Six Leadership Styles and Emotional
Intelligence."
Transition to Fiedler's Contingency Theory:
According to Fiedler's Contingency Theory, effective leaders possess the ability to adapt their leadership
styles to various situations. They understand that one size does not fit all.
Transition to Goleman's Six Leadership Styles:
Similarly, every form of leadership has its strengths and weaknesses. According to Daniel Goleman,
outlined in his book "Leadership that Gets Results," there are six distinct leadership styles to explore.
1. Authoritative Leadership:
The first style is " Leadership," characterized by a highly authoritative approach. Here, the leader holds
significant power and issues strict orders that leave no room for equal communication.
2. Delegative Leadership:
In contrast, "Coercive Leadership" sets goals while getting everyone involved. This style motivates and
encourages people to participate, making a place where all ideas are important. A classic example can be
seen in the character from "The Wolf of Wall Street," who inspires colleagues to excel at work.
3. Participative Leadership:
The "Affiliative Leadership" style prioritizes people and aims to create harmonious relationships within work
groups. It emphasizes collaboration and support, fostering a sense of unity.
4. Democratic Leadership:
"Democratic Leadership" is built on the principle that employees should have a say in decision-making. It
values collective input, considering the opinions of the entire group when making choices.
5. Servant Leadership:
"Pacesetting Leadership" is characterized by a strict, rule-focused boss who may not emphasize personal
relationships. This style aims for high performance but may require adaptability in certain settings.
6. Transformational Leadership
Finally, "Coaching Leadership" focuses on helping employees identify their strengths, weaknesses, and
professional aspirations. It encourages setting development objectives and supports growth.
Conclusion:
In short, leadership has many sides, and knowing your leadership style is important to be a good leader.
Whether you're more like an authoritative, affiliative, democratic, peacesetting, or coaching leader, it's
essential to understand the good and bad parts of each style to do well in different leadership situations.
We hope this look at the six leadership styles helps you understand leadership better and all the different
ways it can work.
