4 Managers Versus Leaders Not all leaders are managers, nor are all managers leaders. Managers Persons whose influence on others is limited to the appointed managerial authority of their positions to reward and punish. Leaders Persons with managerial and personal power who can influence others to perform actions beyond those that could be dictated by those persons formal (position) authority alone.

5 Trait Theories Of Leadership Trait theories of leadership Theories that attempt to isolate characteristics that differentiate leaders from nonleaders Attempts to identify traits that always differentiate leaders from followers and effective leaders from ineffective leaders have failed. Attempts to identify traits consistently associated with leadership have been more successful. Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved. 11 5

8 Leadership Behaviors or Styles Autocratic style of leadership A leader who centralizes authority, dictates work methods, makes unilateral decisions, and limits employee participation. Democratic style of leadership A leader who involves employees in decision making, delegates authority, encourages participation in deciding work methods and goals, and uses feedback to coach employees. A democratic-consultative leader seeks input and hears the concerns and issues of employees but makes the final decision him or herself. A democratic-participative leader often allows employees to have a say in what s decided. Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved. 11 8

9 Leadership Behaviors or Styles (cont d) Laissez-faire style of leadership A leader who gives employees complete freedom to make decisions and to decide on work methods Conclusions about leadership styles The laissez-faire leadership style is ineffective. Quantity of work is equal under authoritarian and democratic leadership styles Quality of work and satisfaction is higher under democratic leadership. Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc.

11 The Ohio State Studies Studies that sought to identify independent dimensions of leader behavior Initiating structure The extent to which a leader defines and structures his or her role and the roles of employees to attain goals Consideration The extent to which a leader has job relationships characterized by mutual trust, respect for employees ideas, and regard for their feelings Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc.

12 The University Of Michigan Studies Studies that sought to identify the behavioral characteristics of leaders related to performance effectiveness Employee oriented A leader who emphasizes interpersonal relations, takes a personal interest in the needs of employees, and accepts individual differences. Production oriented A leader who emphasizes technical or task aspects of a job, is concerned mainly with accomplishing tasks, and regards group members as a means to accomplishing goals.

14 Contingency Theories Of Leadership Fiedler contingency leadership model The theory that effective group performance depends on the proper match between the leader s style of interacting with employees and the degree to which the situation gives control and influence to the leader Uses Least-preferred co-worker (LPC) questionnaire, to measure the leader s task or relationship orientation. Identified three situational criteria leader member relations, task structure, and position power that could be manipulated match an inflexible leadership style. Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc.

15 The Findings of the Fiedler Model EXHIBIT 11.4 Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved

16 Path-Goal Theory Path-goal theory The theory that it is a leader s job to assist followers in attaining their goals and to provide the necessary direction and support A leader s motivational behavior: Makes employee need satisfaction contingent on effective performance. Provides the coaching, guidance, support, and rewards that are necessary for effective performance. Assumes that the leader s style is flexible and can be changed to adapt to the situation at hand.

17 Path-Goal Leadership Behaviors Directive leader Lets employees know what is expected of them, schedules work to be done, and gives specific guidance as to how to accomplish tasks. Supportive leader Is friendly and shows concern for the needs of employees. Participative leader Consults with employees and uses their suggestions before making a decision. Achievement-oriented leader Sets challenging goals and expects employees to perform at their highest levels. Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved

19 Other Contingency Leadership Models Leader-participation model (Vroom, Yetton and Jago) Provided a sequential set of rules for determining the form and amount of participation a leader should exercise in decision making according to different types of situations. The model was a decision tree incorporating seven contingencies (whose relevance could be identified by making yes or no choices) and five alternative leader ship styles. Assumed an adaptable leadership style. Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved

21 Situational Leadership Situational leadership theory (SLT) Leaders should adjust their leadership styles telling, selling, participating, and delegating in accordance with the readiness of their followers. Acceptance: Leader effectiveness reflects the reality that it is the followers who accept or reject the leader. Readiness: a follower s ability and willingness to perform. At higher levels of readiness, leaders respond by reducing control over and involvement with employees. Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved

23 Emerging Approaches To Leadership Charismatic leadership theory Followers make attributions of heroic or extraordinary leadership abilities when they observe certain behaviors People working for charismatic leaders are motivated to exert extra work effort and, because they like and respect their leaders, express greater satisfaction. Charisma leadership appears to be most appropriate when the followers task has a ideological component or when the environment involves a high degree of stress and uncertainty.

24 Charismatic Leadership A charismatic leader influences followers by: Stating a vision that provides a sense of community by linking the present with a better future. Communicating high expectations and expressing confidence that followers can attain them. Conveying, through words and actions, a new set of values, and by his or her behavior setting an example for followers to imitate. Making self-sacrifices and engaging in unconventional behavior to demonstrate courage and convictions about the vision. Copyright 2004 Prentice Hall, Inc. All rights reserved
