People-Oriented/Relations-Oriented Leadership
Choosing the Right Style for the Situation
In business, a leadership style called
"transformational leadership" is often the most effective approach to
use. Transformational leaders have integrity, they inspire people with a shared
vision of the future, they set clear goals and motivate people towards them,
they manage delivery, and they communicate well with their teams. (You can find
out more about transformational leadership at the end of this article.)
However, leadership
is not "one size fits all" thing; often, you must adapt your style to
fit a situation or a specific group. This is why it's useful to gain a thorough
understanding of other leadership styles; after all, the more approaches you're
familiar with, the more tools you'll be able to use to lead effectively.
Let's take a deeper
look at People-Oriented/Relations-Oriented Leadership style.
People-Oriented/Relations-Oriented Leadership
With people-oriented leadership, leaders are totally focused
on organizing, supporting, and developing the people on their teams. This is a
participatory style and tends to encourage good teamwork and creative
collaboration. This is the opposite of task-oriented leadership.
People-oriented
leaders treat everyone on the team equally. They're friendly and approachable,
they pay attention to the welfare of everyone in the group, and they make
themselves available whenever team members need help or advice.
The benefit of this leadership style is that people-oriented
leaders create teams that everyone wants to be part of. Team members are often
more productive and willing to take risks, because they know that the leader
will provide support if they need it.
The downside is that
some leaders can take this approach too far; they may put the development of
their team above tasks or project directives
