13. Autocratic This style is used when leaders tell their employees what they want done and how they want it accomplished, without getting the advice of their followers. Some of the appropriate conditions to use it is when managers have all the information to solve the problem, they are short on time, and their employees are well motivated. Most common in factories, fast food, armed forces and police. Direct orders are given and are to be followed Views and opinions of subordinates are not taken inot account by managers who just issue orders and expect them to be followed

Employees have greater involvement in decision- making Democratic persuasive: Leader has made decision and then persuades subordinates into the best option Democratic consultative: the Leader consults with subordinates then makes a decision Video here on the democratic leadership style of Richard Branson herehere
