Psychologist Kurt Lewin identified three leadership styles: autocratic, democratic, and laissez-faire. Autocratic leaders make independent decisions with little group input, democratic leaders involve the group in decision-making while retaining final say, and laissez-faire leaders provide little guidance and allow the group to decide. Situational leadership involves adapting one's style based on factors like time, employee skills, task complexity, and organizational structure.

Leadership Styles Psychologist Kurt Lewin set out to identify different styles of leadership. = 1. Autocratic Authoritarian leaders make decisions independently with little or no input from the rest of the group. Authoritarian leadership is best applied to situations where:- There is little time for group decision- making Where the leader is the most knowledgeable member of the group.
2. Democratic Democratic leaders offer guidance to group members, but they also participate in the group and allow input from other group members. Participative leaders encourage group members to participate, but retain the final say over the decision-making process. Group members feel engaged in the process and are more motivated and creative.
3. Laissez-Faire Laissez-Faire leaders offer little or no guidance to group members and leave decision- making up to group members. While this style can be effective in situations where group members are highly qualified in an area of expertise, it often leads to poorly defined roles and a lack of motivation.
