Almost all responsibility lies with supervisors and is not delegated. Instructions are clearly defined and leave little (creative) leeway for employees. This type of leadership style can be effective in crisis situations, for example, since clear instructions are particularly necessary in such times. Nevertheless, it quickly becomes clear that this leadership behavior is meanwhile by far outdated in a digitalized and freedom-oriented working world. It leads to strong dissatisfaction within a team\/company, puts limitations on the individual and leads to increased turnover. It tends to be perceived by employees and middle management as a leadership failure.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-builder-row-inner fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"--awb-flex-grow:0;--awb-flex-grow-medium:0;--awb-flex-grow-small:0;--awb-flex-shrink:0;--awb-flex-shrink-medium:0;--awb-flex-shrink-small:0;width:calc( 100% + 10px ) !important;max-width:calc( 100% + 10px ) !important;margin-left: calc(-10px \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-10px \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column_inner fusion-builder-nested-column-1 fusion_builder_column_inner_2_3 2_3 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:66.6666666667%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:5px;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:5px;--awb-width-medium:66.6666666667%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:5px;--awb-spacing-left-medium:5px;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:5px;--awb-spacing-left-small:5px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\" style=\"--awb-text-font-family:&quot;Campton-Medium&quot;;--awb-text-font-style:normal;--awb-text-font-weight:400;\"><div class=\"main-num-section\">\n<div><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1145 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/reckers-griesbach.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/2..png\" alt=\"\" width=\"87\" height=\"96\" title=\"\"><\/div>\n<div><strong><span class=\"number-heading\">The laissez-faire leadership style<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span class=\"number-paragraph\" style=\"font-size: 21px; color: #6a8e9b;\">The complete opposite of this is the laissez-faire leadership style \u2013 here the focus is on the independence of the individual employee and the practically unrestricted freedom to make decisions. This is a leadership behavior that might be suitable in creative environments with innovative and independent employees, but one is which the further development of the individual by the leader falls, to a large extent, by the wayside.

No wonder, it describes the supervisor who probably most employees would like to have: A boss, who involves them in decisions, takes an interest in their needs, provides targeted feedback and assigns responsible tasks. There is regular and transparent communication at eye level and everyone feels that they are pulling together. This is a collaborative form of leadership that undoubtedly has many advantages. There are however, a few possible disadvantages that should not be overlooked. The authority of the leader, i.e. the power to issue directives, can be diluted. It is therefore important for supervisors to position themselves as leaders, to take responsibility and to make decisions, despite the friendly and collaborative interaction.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-6 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"--awb-text-color:#000000;--awb-margin-top:80px;--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;--awb-font-size:30px;\"><h2 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"font-family:&quot;Campton-Medium&quot;;font-style:normal;font-weight:400;margin:0;font-size:1em;line-height:35px;\"><h2 style=\"font-size: 30px; color: #000; font-family: Campton-Book;\">Bringing together companies and employees collaboratively and without leadership failures<\/h2><\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-6 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:5px;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:5px;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:5px;--awb-spacing-left-medium:5px;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:5px;--awb-spacing-left-small:5px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-8\" style=\"--awb-font-size:21px;--awb-line-height:35px;--awb-text-color:#6a8e9b;--awb-margin-top:20px;--awb-text-font-family:&quot;Campton-Book&quot;;--awb-text-font-style:normal;--awb-text-font-weight:400;\"><p>Leaders are the interface between corporate leadership and personnel and carry a great deal of responsibility. On the one hand, they have to realize the company's goals and act in a result-oriented manner. On the other hand, they work with people who need to be motivated, valued and developed. In this interplay between encouraging and challenging, leaders must find their personal and specific leadership style \u2013 one that comes across as authentic through their wealth of experience and their own intuition, motivates employees and fits into a globalized and increasingly digital working world.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column
