Stephen Bauld's latest Procurement Perspectives column looks at the question of management style.
August 8, 2023
Autocratic leaders provide clear instructions, solicit input and motivate using discipline and reward. Empowering leaders adopt a laissez-faire approach. They are themselves as developing their subordinates so that they can achieve and have high standards of performance. They delegate authority and allow followers flexibility in setting and completing tasks.
A leader’s style reveals over time his beliefs and the nature of his personality, and the style will also dictate the manner in which the leader behaves. If, however, a leader’s behaviour confirms that he or she is hard-nosed, task-oriented and indifferent to the welfare of those who serve under him, then any declaration to the contrary is irrelevant.
