There are many different leadership styles out there. Which is yours?
- Autocratic
- Bureaucratic
- Charismatic
- Democratic
- Laissez-faire
- People Oriented
- Servant
- Task Oriented
- Transactional
- Transformational
While some may argue one style is better than another, there really is no one right answer. Every situation is different. Teams and organizations have different maturity, skill levels, and goals.
Use leadership styles like assorted paint colors. “Paint” based upon situational needs rather than relying upon the same old color.
Learn from other leaders you admire.
Finally, ask for feedback and set an expectation for continual improvement.
