Leadership Styles – Daniel Goleman
Change Agent - Leader
1. Visionary Leader
2. Coaching Leader
3. Affiliative Leader
4. Democratic Leader
5. Pace-setting Leader
6. Commanding Leader
The Visionary Leader
•Shared vision:
- where to go but not how to get there
- motivates staff to struggle forward
- Openly share information, hence giving knowledge and power to others
•Potential failure:
- when trying to motivate more experienced staff or peers
The Visionary Leader
•This style is best when a new direction is needed
•Overall, it has a very strong impact on the climate
The Coaching Leader
•Connects wants to organizational goals
- holds long conversations reaching beyond the workplace
- helps people find strengths and weaknesses
ties these to career aspirations and actions
•Delegates challenging assignments
•Demonstrates faith that demands justification
- leads to high levels of loyalty
The Coaching Leader
•Done badly, this style looks like micromanaging
•It is best used when individuals need to build long-term
capabilities
•It has a highly positive impact on the climate
The Affiliative Leader
•Creates people connections and thus harmony within the
organization
•It is a very collaborative style which focuses on emotional needs
over work needs
The Affiliative Leader
•When done badly, it avoids emotionally distressing situations such
as negative feedback
•Done well, it is often used alongside visionary leadership
•It is best used for healing rifts and getting through stressful
situations
•It has a positive impact on climate
The Democratic Leader
•Acts to value inputs and commitment via participation
listens to both bad and good news
•When done badly, it looks like lots of listening but very little
effective action
The Democratic Leader
•It is best used to gain buy-in or when simple inputs are needed
•It has a positive impact on climate
The Pace-setting Leader
•Builds challenging and exciting goals for people
- expects excellence and often exemplifies it themselves
- Identifies poor performers and demands more of them
•If necessary, they will roll up their sleeves and rescue the situation
•Tends to be low on guidance, expecting people to know what to do
•Will get short term results but over the long term this style can lead to exhaustion and decline
The Pace-setting Leader
•Done badly, it lacks Emotional Intelligence, especially self-
management
- A classic problem happens when the 'star techie' gets promoted
•It is best used for results from a motivated and competent team
•It often has a very negative effect on climate (because it is often
poorly done)
The Commanding Leader
•Soothes fears and gives clear directions by his or her powerful
stance
•Commands and expects full compliance (agreement is not needed)
•Needs emotional self-control for success and can seem cold and
distant
The Commanding Leader
•This approach is best in times of crisis when you need
unquestioned rapid action and with problem employees who do not
respond to other methods
