During this semester, we have discussed/learned about different management and/or leadership styles as well as, theories of management/supervision.
Please review these different styles and think about what your management/leadership style may be.
Research and find someone (may be more than 1) that you feel has the same type of management/leadership style as yours. i.e., a religious leader, president of a company, famous owner of a company, etc.
Key (type) a paper giving the reasons you have chosen the management/leadership style you have chosen, why you chose the person you chose, etc. Make sure this is very thorough.

Middle-of-the-road management- places equal emphasis on people and production
Team management- high concern for both people and production
Structuring and telling style- used with individuals or groups relatively less ready for a given task
Coaching and selling style- used with individuals or groups with potential but haven't realized it
Participating and supporting style - best used with ready individuals or groups
Delegating and empowering style- used with exceptionally ready and capable individuals and groups
Developmental leadership- an approach that helps groups evolve effectively and achieve highly supportive, open, creative, committed, high performing membership
Heroic managers- managers who have a great need for control or influence and who want to run things
Transformational leadership- converts followers into leaders and may convert leaders into moral agents
Transactional leadership- leaders identify desired performance standards and recognize what types of rewards employees want from their work
Adaptive leadership- organizational members take a hard look at the past to identify what to hold on to, while deciding what needs to go. Employee participation in the change process is the key.
Servant leadership- defines success as giving and measures achievement by devotion to serving and leading. Winning becomes the creation of community through collaboration and team building.
