Democratic Leadership Style: is also called the
participative style as it encourages employees to be part of the
decision making (Gastil, 2012). Democratic leadership should not be used
when there is no enough time to get everyone's input; it's easier and
more cost-effective for the manager to make the decision, the manager
feels threatened by this type of leadership and when employee safety is a
critical concern. However, to be able to achieve a better result,
leader or manager should be able to get everyone involved.
Laissez-Faire:
also known as delegative leadership. One deficiency of laissez-faire
leadership style is that, is not ideal in situations where group members
lack the knowledge or experience they need to complete tasks and make
decisions (Egri, 2011). Some people are not good at setting their own
deadlines, managing their own projects and solving problems on their
own. In such situations, projects can go off-track and deadlines can be
missed when team members do not get enough guidance or feedback from
leaders. However, this study will seek to investigate the how
laissez-faire leadership style can influence employee productivity in
Dangote Plc, Lagos State.
Bureaucratic Leadership Style: is where the
manager manages “by the book†everything must be done according to
procedure or policy. If it isn't covered by the book, the manager refers
to the next level above him or her (Blanchard, 2008). This style is
found to be ineffective when employees form work habits that are hard to
break, if especially the managers are no longer useful, employees lose
their interest in their jobs and in their fellow workers and when
employees do only what is expected of them and no more (Gastil, 2012).
In
this case, Dangote Plc is chosen since there has been employees' high
productivity which could be attributed to the exercise of desirable
leadership. A research into the impact of leadership style on employees’
productivity may be necessary in finding the type of leadership style
the organization applies and how it affects the employees’ productivity.
A good leadership style is expected to direct workers behaviours toward
achieving organizational predetermined goals. Therefore, this study
investigate how different leadership styles (e.g. autocratic,
democratic, liaises faire and bureaucratic) affect employees’
productivity in Dangote Plc, Lagos State. The novelty and contribution
of the study to existing knowledge hinge on the fact that no work of
this nature has been conducted using Dangote Plc, Lagos State as a case
study.
