Behavioral Approach
The behavior approach focuses on the behaviors that effective leaders engage in.Consideration behavior
Initiating Structure behavior
Leader Reward Behavior
Leader Punishing Behavior
![Page 8: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Consideration & Initiating-structure Behavior
Consideration behavior – involves being concerned with subordinates’ feelings & respecting subordinates’ ideas
Initiating-structure behavior –involves clearly defining the leader-subordinate roles so that subordinates know what is expected of them
![Page 9: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Job-Centered and Employee-Centered Approach
Leaders exhibiting job-centered behaviors: Pay close attention to the work of subordinates
Explain all work procedures
Are interested mainly in performance and effective completion of the task
Leaders exhibiting employee-centered behaviors: Pay close attention to the human aspects of the group
Attempt to build effective work groups with high performance goals
Employee-centered leader behavior is more likely to result in effective group performance than job-centered leader behavior.
![Page 10: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Least Preferred Coworker (LPC) Approach
Developed by Fred Fiedler, attempts to explain and reconcile both the leader’s personality and the complexities of the situation.
Contends that a leader’s effectiveness depends on the situation and, as a result, some leaders may be effective in one situation or organization but not in another.
![Page 11: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Elements of LPC Approach
Task Motivation Versus Relationship Motivation Fiedler and his associates maintain that leadership
effectiveness depends on the match between the leader’s personality and the situation.
Fiedler also identified three factors that determine the favorableness of the situation: Leader-member relations
Task structure
Leader position power
![Page 12: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Path-Goal ApproachOriginated with expectancy theory of
motivation
Paths = Employee expectancies
Goals = Employee performance
States that effective leaders ensure that employees who perform their jobs well receive more valued rewards than those who perform poorly
![Page 13: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Path-Goal Approach
![Page 14: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Vroom’s Decision Tree ApproachThe key component of this approach is
determining how much to involve subordinates in making decisions.
The approach requires that managers use one of two different decision trees: Time-driven model (tree) – intended for use in
making an effective decision as quickly as possible
Development-driven model (tree) –used for developing the decision-making skills of others
![Page 17: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Vroom’s Decision Tree (continued)Situational Factors
After choosing a tree, the leader assesses the situation in terms of several factors to determine whether the given factor is “high” or “low.”
Factors include: Decision significance
The importance & likelihood of commitment by followers
The leader and group’s expertise
Group support
Team competence
![Page 18: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Vroom’s Decision Tree (continued)
Decision Styles and Subordinate ParticipationFive decision styles are:
Decide Delegate Consult (individually) Consult (group) Facilitate The model is a tool mangers can apply in
deciding how much subordinates should participate in the decision-making process.
![Page 19: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Leader-Member Exchange Approach
This model stresses that leaders develop unique working relationships with each of their subordinates. They establish a special relationship with a small
number of trusted subordinates referred to as the in-group; subordinates who are not part of this group are called the out-group.
In-group usually receives special duties requiring responsibility and autonomy; members may also receive special privileges.
In-group members have a higher level of performance and satisfaction than out-group members.
![Page 20: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Hersey and Blanchard Model
The Hersey and Blanchard Model identifies different combinations of leadership presumed to work best with different levels of organizational maturing on the part of subordinates.
As the maturity of the followers improves, the leader’s leadership style can shift from a “telling” style to a “selling” style and, finally, to a “delegating” style.
![Page 21: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Fiedler’s Contingency Approach

The characteristic of individuals
The situations in which they find themselves

Task-oriented
![Page 22: Leadership, early & contemporary approaches to leadership](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55a6800d1a28ab776f8b495e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
