What is a leadership style?

A leader’s leadership style describes how he or she directs, motivates, guides, and manages groups of people. Political movements and social change can be inspired by great leaders. They can also inspire others to excel, create, and innovate.

When you consider some of the people you consider to be great leaders, you will notice that there are often significant differences in how each person leads. Fortunately, researchers have developed various theories and frameworks that help us better identify and comprehend these different leadership styles.

The different types of leadership I have come across and applied are as follows:

  1. Transformational Leadership.
  2. Transactional Leadership.
  3. Authoritarian Leadership.
  4. Participative Leadership.
  5. Delegative Leadership.
  6. Charismatic Leadership.

Transformational Leadership
