 Principles that Guide Leadership

1. Autocratic Leadership
-As the name implies, this leadership style is
one person in control of everything. This
person makes the decisions, and that is
final. Also, there is no input from other
people in decision making
 2. Laissez-Faire Leadership
This leader is NOT directly involved in
decision making and puts a lot of trust into
the team. The leader with this style will
know what’s going and gives feedback when
needed.
Laissez-faire is French, and it means
“hands-off.
3. Democratic Leadership
T his leader will listen to others’ opinions
but will make the final decision.
The leader still is very involved in day to day
activities but will allow for more creative
thinking to flourish. The downside of this
style is when a decision has to be made
right away
4. Pace-Setter Leadership
Just like the pace car in a race, a pace setter
leader is one that sets the bar high and
expects work to be done fast and right. This
is perfect for highly energized professionals
who know what they are doing and are
driven to succeed.
