Please respond to Leslie\u2019s post with one scholarly source…After reading the assigned readings for this week and going over the lesson, I have concluded that in my opinion, the most effective leadership style is the\u00a0Leadership Behavior theory.\u00a0I think that being an effective leader is based on your behavior. How well you can lead a group, make them become successful and keep them on the right track. In the textbook within the leadership behavior theory\u00a0portion,\u00a0it\u00a0breaks leadership down into three categories. Autocratic, democratic, and laissez-faire. \u201cThe democratic\u00a0style\u00a0emphasizes the group and majority rule.\u201d (Manning 2018). In this type of\u00a0leadership,\u00a0the opinion of the group\u00a0matters,\u00a0and the decisions are made based on what is best for everyone not just the leader, which I also think is an effective quality for a leader.\u00a0Democratic style leaderships are\u00a0very effective because the group and leader are involved in everything together. The leader always considers the group when making the decisions and always allows the group to voice their\u00a0opinions. You\u00a0can’t\u00a0always make everyone in the group\u00a0happy,\u00a0but they try and keep the majority of the\u00a0group happy. Kurt Lewin conducted a study that\u00a0indicated\u00a0that democratic leadership\u00a0style was more beneficial for group performance than others. (Manning 2018).The Leadership Contingency Theory holds that the most appropriate leader qualities differ from situation to situation. (Manning 2018). There is no specific theory that is better than the other, it is just what it best for the situation and I also agree with that. Leaders\u00a0must\u00a0learn to adapt to the situations that lie\u00a0Infront\u00a0of them and do what is best for their team or organization.The\u00a0democratic leadership style is most effective in most cases because it keeps everyone, for the most part, happy. The leader always has its members in mind.\u00a0John\u00a0Gastill\u00a0says that democratic leadership is distinct from positions of authority, rather\u00a0it is defined as responsibility throughout the group, empowering group members, and aiding their\u00a0decision-making\u00a0process. Agreeing that it is one of the most effective styles of leadership. Not just one person is in charge and making all the decisions based off what is best for them.ReferencesManning, George.\u00a0The Art of Leadership. McGraw-Hill Higher Education (US), 2018.
