Are Leaders born or made?
We found that 19.1% of people believe that leaders are more born,
52.4% believe they are more made, and 28.5% believe they are about
equally born and made.
In the same way, our beliefs about how people become

leaders affect how we evaluate people’s leadership potential.
Believing people are born leaders is likely to result in a focus more
on selection (identify the right people) rather than on development
(develop the people you get). On the other hand, Believing that
people are made into leaders by their experiences would be more
likely to result in a greater focus on making sure people had the right
opportunities to develop into leaders.

Levels of leadership
Leadership styles
1. Democratic Leadership
2. Autocratic Leadership
3. Laissez-Faire Leadership
4. Strategic Leadership
5. Servant Leadership
6. Transformational Leadership
7. Transactional Leadership
8. Coach-Style Leadership
9. Bureaucratic Leadership

The most important styles of leadership are:
 Democratic leadership style
 The leaders invite and encourage the team members to play
an important role in decision-making process, though the
ultimate decision-making power rests with the leader.
 The leader guides the employees on what to perform and
how to perform, while the employees communicate to the
leader their experience and the suggestions if any.
o The advantages of this are that it leads to satisfied, motivated
and more skilled employees. It leads to an optimistic work
environment and also encourages creativity
 Autocratic leadership style

 The leader has complete command and hold over their
employees/team.
 The team cannot put forward their views even if they are
best for the teams’ or organizational interests. They cannot
criticize or question the leader’s way of getting things done.
The leader himself gets the things done.
o The advantage of this style is that it leads to speedy decision-
making and greater productivity under leader’s supervision.
 Laissez Faire Leadership Style

 The leader totally trusts their employees/team to perform
the job themselves. He just concentrates on the intellectual
aspect of his work and does not focus on the management
aspect of his work.

 The team/employees are welcomed to share their views and
provide suggestions which are best for organizational
interests.
 This leadership style works only when the employees are
skilled, loyal, experienced and intellectual.
 Bureaucratic leadership style

 The leaders strictly adhere to the organizational rules and
policies.
 The employees/team also strictly follows the rules and
procedures. Promotions take place on the basis of
employees’ ability to adhere to organizational rules.
 This leadership style is more suitable when safe work
conditions and quality are required. But this leadership style
discourages creativity and does not make employees self-
contented.
