Hersey Blanchard 1988 PDF

Leadership styles can be categorized into four types based on the amount of task behavior and relationship behavior exhibited by the leader: telling (high task/low relationship), selling (high task/high relationship), participating (high relationship/low task), and delegating (low task/low relationship). An effective leader adapts their style based on the situation and maturity level of their followers. The situational leadership model provides guidance on which leadership style may work best depending on follower readiness.
