who you are, what you know, and what
you can do.

that you are worthy of being followed.

BEHAVIORAL THEORY- based upon the belief that great leaders are made,
not born. Consider it the flipside of the Great Man theories. Rooted in this
theory focuses on the actions of leaders, not on mental qualities or internal
states. According to this theory, people can learn to become leaders through
teaching and observation.
PARTICIPATIVE THEORY- suggests that the ideal leadership
style is one that takes the input of others into account.
These leaders encourage participation and contributions
from group members and help group members feel more
relevant and committed to the decision-making process. In
participative theories, however, the leader retains the right
to allow the input of others.
MANAGEMENT THEORIES-focus on the role of supervision,
organization, and group performance. These theories base
leadership on a system of rewards and punishments.
Managerial theories are often used in business; when
employees are successful, they are rewarded and when
they fail, they are reprimanded or punished.
RELATIONSHIP THEORY-known as transformational theories, focus upon the
connections formed between leaders and followers. Transformational
leaders motivate and inspire people by helping group members see the
importance and higher good of the task. These leaders are focused on the
performance of group members, but also want every person to fulfill their
potential. Leaders with this style often have high ethical and moral
standards.
HOUSE’S PATH GOAL THEORY-developed by Robert House and has its roots
in the expectancy theory of motivation. The theory is based on the premise
that an employee’s perception of expectancies between his effort and
performance is greatly affected by a leader’s behavior. The leaders help
group members in attaining rewards by clarifying the paths to goals and
removing obstacles to performance. They do so by providing the
information, support, and other resources which are required by employees
to complete the task.
LEADERSHIP-MEMBER EXCHANGE (LMX)-leaders form different kinds of
relationships with various groups of subordinates. One group, referred to as
the in-group, is favored by the leader. Members of in-groups receive
considerably more attention from the leader and have more access to the
organizational resources. By contrast, other subordinates fall into the out-
group. These individuals are disfavored by the leader. As such, they receive
fewer valued resources from their leaders
The relationship between leaders and followers follows two
stages:
6.Span of Control-Number of
subordinates, one manager supervises.
7.Delegation of Authority-Allows complex
organizations to function by breaking tasks
down into smaller segments that can be
handled by one person or by members of a
single department. Maintenance of the
intended delegation requires that decisions
within the authority of individual
commanders should be made by them and not
be referred upward in the organizational
structure.
8.Principle of Unity of Objectives Organizational
goals, departmental goals, and individual goals
must be clearly defined. All goals and objectives
must have uniformity. When there is a
contradiction among different levels of goals
desired goals can’t be achieved.
