 Three Types of Leadership

1. Authoritative leadership through fear

Authoritarian leadership is a now outdated form of management that, especially in
recent decades, is sure to create a lot of resistance among employees. The word
authoritarian comes from the Greek language and derives from the word autocratic.
‘Auto’ means self and ‘cratic’ means rules. Authoritarian Leadership is a leadership style
in which, without accepting participation, the authoritarian leader makes all the decisions
themselves and delegates the tasks. This leader will check and punish their employees
more severely and quickly. When the results are disappointing, or when the leader
expects this to happen, the authoritarian leader will use his power to threaten sanctions
such as dismissal so that undesirable behavior can be prevented. Managers with an
authoritarian leadership style exert a lot of negative influence on the employees and have
an image of them that corresponds to the vision from McGregor’s Theory X.

2. Persuasive or Democratic type of Leadership

Also known as participative leadership or shared leadership, is a type of
leadership style in which members of the group take a more participative role in the
decision-making process. This type of leadership can apply to any organization, from
private businesses to schools to government.

3. Free-rein type of leadership

Under this style, a manager gives complete freedom to his subordinates. The
entire decision-making authority is entrusted to them. There is least intervention by
the leader and so the group operates entirely on its own.
