21st century Leadership week 1

INTRODUCTION

Leadership has 6 styles which are Authoritarian,Procedural,Trans formal,Participative and Lassez Faire .I am going to focus on Authoritarian style. Authoritarian style of leadership is the leadership where the leader is having full control on the people working under him.In countries like Cuba and North Korea , authoritative style of Leadership is in function.

ADVANTAGES
The authoritarian leadership style basically have the leader to take all the decisions . So, in many aspects it is very helpful for the organisation. Firstly, The decision is made very quickly in this style as there are not very much choices .Secondly, The work is closely supervised by the leader so there is very less chance of the work being done wrong.Mostly the authoritative leaders are the strict ones so because of that the discipline is also their in the organization.

DISADVANTAGES
On the other side of the coin , there are also many disadvantages of the authoritarian style of leadership. Firstly , It is that everything is dependent on the leader as he is to take every decision.The one way communication system is used in this style where the leader is not answerable to the employees.There is very low employee morale in this style of leadership, very low rate of employees get satisfied in this style.Employee exploitation is very much in this style of leadership as no IDEAS are taken from the side of employees .

CONCLUSION
So, to conclude , I would like to say that this kind of leadership can be best fit in case of MILITARY or in case of any SURGERY in the ongoing 21st century where a quick decision is required and there everyone has to follow the leader.
