LAISSEZ-FAIRE
Definition:
A philosophy that rejects involvement by the government in economic matters beyond what is
strictly essential to preserve peace and property rights. Especially when it comes to one's own
personal freedom of action and choice, it frequently consciously refrains from guiding or
interfering. Laissez-Faire literally means "allow to do," with the idea being "let people do as they
choose. They don't micromanage, become too involved, or give out too much advice or guidance.
On the other side, laissez-faire leaders empower their team members to use their initiative,
resources, and skills to promote their goals. Since they have trust in the abilities of their
employees, managers that employ this style of management tend to be rather hands-off. This
leadership style encourages team members and subordinates to take genuine initiative while
giving guidance and taking on duties as needed.
Characteristics of Laissez-Faire leaders

• Little guidance from leaders
• Employees have the ability to make decisions
• People are expected to solve their own problems
• Access to many resources and tools
• Constructive criticism from leaders
• Leaders take charge when necessary
• Leaders take responsibility for overall actions and decisions
Examples:
Richard Branson is a British billionaire and entrepreneur and founder of the virgin group. he is a
laissez-faire leader, because he believes in letting people learn from their mistakes. He may set
goals for the project and provide guidance to the team, but he expects them to do the work
necessary to reach those goals. He also shares his knowledge with others but also understands
what people do best to learn.
AUTOCRATIC
Definition:
Autocratic leadership, also known as authoritarian leadership, can be defined as a structure

where there is one clearly defined “boss” at the top who holds most, if not all, of the control over
the distribution of workload and responsibility. It is a leadership and management style wherein
one person controls all the decisions and takes very little input from other group members.
People who work under an autocratic leader will know exactly who to talk to and who they
should ask for approval. Not only can this lead to improved organizational efficiency, but it can
also enhance accountability. Autocratic leadership has both advantages and disadvantages.
Examples:
Adolf Hitler, Napoleon Bonaparte, Queen Elizabeth I, and Vladimir Putin are examples of well-
known people who utilize autocratic leadership styles.
Abraham Lincoln. Honest Abe rarely gave battlefield orders but made many autonomous
decisions during the Civil War. According to Smithsonian Magazine, “He applied his large
quotient of common sense to slice through the obfuscations and excuses of military
subordinates.” The outcome of President Lincoln’s autocratic leadership style had a profound,
everlasting effect on America: the abolishment of slavery.
PARTICIPATIVE
Definition:
A management approach known as the participative leadership style involves including the entire
team in the majority of decision-making processes. Before such a definitive verdict is reached,
all team members are informed about strategic choices and given the opportunity to offer their
perspectives.
The five key traits of participative leadership were:
● Giving subordinates a share in decision-making.

● Keeping subordinates informed of the true situation, good or bad, under all
circumstances.
● Maintaining awareness of the state of the organization's morale, with action taken to
keep it as high as possible.
● The leader is approachable.
● Counseling, training, and development opportunities are offered to subordinates
In other words, employees are considerably more actively involved in organizational
activities than they would be under alternative leadership philosophies, and their
development is given far more attention.
Examples:
● Bill Gates, the man behind Microsoft, is an excellent example of participative leadership.
He has a reputation for listening to advice from teams and coworkers. He is aware of the
need of valuing the knowledge and abilities of team members.
● Carlos Ghosn, the CEO of Renault and Nissan, is another example of a leader that uses
participative leadership. He is aware of the value of employee input in decision-making
processes. He thinks that staff members have experience and can contribute significantly
to enhancing operations.
