LEADERSHIP THEORIES
1.TRAIT APPROACH 2.BEHAVIOURAL APPROACH 3.SITUATIONAL APPROACH
TRAIT APPROACH
Keith davis has summarized four of the major traits which might have an impact on successful organizational leadership. They are: Intelligence Social maturity and breath: Inner motivation and achievement drives Human relations attitude
Intelligence: Research has shown that generally a leader has higher intelligence that the average intelligence of the followers. However the leader cannot be exceedingly much more intelligent than his followers Social maturity and breath: Leaders tend to be emotionally stable and mature and to have broad interests and activities. They have an assured, respectful self concept Inner motivation and achievement drives: Leaders have relatively intense motivational drives of the achievement type. The strive for intrinsic than extrinsic rewards. Human relations attitude: Successful leaders recognize the worth and dignity of their followers and are able to emphasize with them. According to research studies leaders possess consideration and are employee centered rather than production centered.
BEHAVIOURAL APPROACH
Autocratic Participative or supportive Instrumental or instrumental supportive
Autocratic: An autocratic leader is one who commands and expects compliance. He is dogmatic and positive and leads by his ability to withhold or give rewards and punishments. Participative or supportive:The participative or supportive leadership behaviour is based on the assumption that people essentially want to participate, want to accomplish and will work well if general supervision is employed and where they are allowed to use their own initiative and support is given while accomplishing their task. Instrumental or instrumental supportive:Instrumental behaviour of leadership emphasizes the leaders role as a manager in the rational aspects of management namely planning, organizing, controlling etc.
SITUATIONAL APPROACH
Stagdill and his associates research findings revealed that leadership ability is heavily affected by situational factors like their job, the organizational environment in which they operated history of the enterprise, community in which the organization operates, psychological climate of the group their characteristics, group member personalities and cultural influences and so on
CONTIGENCY THEORIES: THE FIEDLER MODEL:Fred E. Fiedler argued that effectiveness depends on two interacting factors: leadership style and the degree to which the situation gives the leader control and influence. Three things are important here: The relationship between the leaders and followers: If leaders are liked and respected they are more likely to have the support of others. The structure of the task: If the task is clearly spelled out as to goals, methods and standards of performance then it are more likely that leaders will be able to exert influence. Position power: If an organization or group confers powers on the leader for the purpose of getting the job done, then this may well increase the influence of the leader.
THE PATH-GOAL THEORY: Path-goal theory identifies four kinds of leader behavior. directive leader behavior - letting subordinates know what is expected of them, giving guidance and direction, and scheduling work. supportive leader behavior - being friendly and approachable, showing concern for subordinate welfare, and treating members as equals. participative leader behavior - consulting subordinates, soliciting suggestions, and allowing participation in decision making. achievement-oriented behavior - setting challenging goals, expecting subordinates to perform at high levels, encouraging subordinates and showing confidence in subordinates' abilities.
