Managers are the guiding light for employees because they set the direction and are a source of inspiration and motivation for them. Their management style is equally important because they determine how the employees will perform in the long run and whether they will stay with the organization.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article will familiarize you with the different types of management styles along with their pros and cons.

Management styles vary depending upon the industry, the manager, level of management required, nationality, and an organization\u2019s culture.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">External and internal factors affect management styles.

An efficient manager is someone who has the ability to adjust their management styles according to their environment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Types of Management Styles<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An effective management style paves way for effective leadership. For you to be able to transport your management skills and business to the next level, you should be familiar with the different types of leadership styles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here is a list of different management styles that may suit your business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Management styles have three broad categories: autocratic, laissez-faire, democratic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Within each of these categories is a subtype with its own set of pros and cons.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Autocratic Management Styles\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following a top-down approach, this style of management is one-way communication between the manager and employees.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the most controlling of all management styles where managers take most of the decisions. Managers monitor employees closely and do not encourage them to share ideas about the overall process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The autocratic management style is further divided into 3 subsets: authoritative, persuasive, and paternalistic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Authoritative Management Style\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As authoritative as it sounds, this management style rests all the power in the hands of managers. They take all the important decisions and don\u2019t involve subordinates in the process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Managers dictate tasks to their subordinates who follow them without questioning authority or suggesting any changes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This management style allows managers to micromanage employees and monitor their performance and progress closely. This is because managers believe that giving autonomy will deter the subordinates from working efficiently.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This style is most applicable in times of organizational crisis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However aggressive it may be, there are some pros and cons.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pros of the authoritative autocratic:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sets well-defined roles and expectations for employees<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Allows for quick decision making\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Subordinate are hyper-productive\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Cons of the authoritative autocratic:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees\u2019 creativity, passion, and zeal to think out of the box is curbed\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creates an \u2018us\u2019 versus \u2018them\u2019 mentality because subordinates aren\u2019t given autonomy and are treated like drones<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This leads to employee dissatisfaction which further gives rise to employee disengagement, high turnover, and increased <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.attendancebot.com\/blog\/absenteeism\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=in-line&amp;utm_campaign=management-styles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">absenteeism<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Persuasive Management Style\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike the authoritative style, the persuasive management style includes employees in the decision-making process but not completely. Managers use their persuasive skills to convince employees that whatever the manager decides is in the best interest of the employees and the organization.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike the authoritative style, this management style makes employees believe that their opinions and beliefs are valued. Subordinates feel happy that they are trusted by their managers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, this should be used when the manager has more expertise in the subject matter than the team,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Should you deploy this style in your business? Let&#8217;s have a look at its pros and cons.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pros of the authoritative persuasive:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees willingly accept the decisions passed by the managers because a certain level of trust and confidence exists between the two parties<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lower levels of resentment between employees and managers make employees happy and satisfied to continue working\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Cons of the authoritative persuasive:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees still have to operate under restrictions, don&#8217;t have complete autonomy and are still micromanaged which may lead to frustration<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Paternalistic Management Style\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this case, managers consider employees as family and expect loyalty and trust from them. Although unilateral decision-making still prevails, managers ensure that they explain the logic and reasoning to the employees. However, the employees are still not autonomous and cannot question or collaborate with management.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pros and cons listed below will help you decide if this is the management style for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pros of the authoritative paternalistic:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A paternalistic manager works in the best interest of employees<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Managers invest in upscaling employee skill sets as a consequence of which employees are more productive<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cons of the authoritative paternalistic:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees lack in problem-solution and innovation because they become too dependent on the management over time\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees may still find this management style a little condescending\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Democratic Management Styles<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike authoritative, this style encourages two-way communication. Employees are encouraged to give opinions, share ideas and beliefs when making a decision. However, the power to make the final decision rests in the hands of the manager.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This management style is further categorized into five subtypes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Consultative Management Style\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this style, managers consult the viewpoints, opinions, and ideas of employees before making the final decision. Managers ensure that all the information shared by employees is fully taken into consideration and is not disregarded.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This management style is used when employees have more knowledge on the subject than the manager.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This style usually works in specialized fields where the input by employees and staff holds immense value.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pros of the democratic consultative:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increase in team cohesiveness\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Managers learn and grow with the two way communication process\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees learn problem-solving, as dependence on the management is far less<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cons of the democratic consultative:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Decision making takes long as consulting staff and employees consumes time\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Managers can easily be bogged down if not skilled in collaborative decision making\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any sort of favoritism from the manager for any one employee can create a lot of resentment in the team\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Participative Management Style<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This style of management allows employees to actively participate in the decision-making process. Employees have access to company information and goals and are encouraged to propose innovative solutions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This style should be used when a business is going through some grand change and consulting employees can add value to the decision-making.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Pros of the democratic participative:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because employees have a better idea about a company\u2019s goals, they display higher productivity and motivation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employee engagement increases and their ability to come up with creative and innovative solutions increases<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cons of the democratic participative:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since there is more employee involvement, the decision making becomes slower<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In decision making where giving complete access to information to employees is mandatory, the risk of security lapses increases\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Collaborative Management Style<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This kind of management style creates an open forum where all employees brainstorm ideas and hold discussions with the majority ruling in the decision-making. This style has more pros than cons as mentioned below.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When a business is seeking to increase innovation and employee engagement, this style of management comes into play.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-195048\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Management-Styles-Image.jpg\" alt=\"Management styles are important for effective leadership.\" width=\"950\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Management-Styles-Image.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Management-Styles-Image-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Management-Styles-Image-768x404.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Management-Styles-Image-100x53.jpg 100w, https:\/\/blog.attendancebot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Management-Styles-Image-700x368.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Pros of the democratic consultative:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees are empowered to take ownership which can increase creativity, innovation, and collaboration<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since there is open communication between managers and employees, there are fewer chances of conflict or miscommunication taking place<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employee engagement increases and turnover reduces\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees are encouraged to actively participate\u00a0 which lets them engage across teams instead of working in silos<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cons of the democratic consultative:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The majority rule may not always work in the best interest of the business.

Employers inspire employees to step out of their comfort zone and reach new heights.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This management style is more evident in fast-paced industries where employees are required to be more agile and flexible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Pros of the democratic transformational:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Managers and employees work together and thereby contribute to each other\u2019s learning curve<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees become more flexible owing to their increased contribution in problem-solving\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Cons of the democratic transformational:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If employees are forced to take up challenges beyond a limit then it may cause burnout<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Coaching Management Style<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here, managers act as coaches to employees, mentoring and guiding them for personal and professional development.

If this is not the case, then work will suffer.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Influence of Culture and Values on <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leadership and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Management Styles<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A company\u2019s culture impacts leadership and management styles significantly. There are two aspects that a company\u2019s culture influences. Let\u2019s have a look at each of these individually.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Motivation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Risk-averse organizations have managers and executives who are very meticulous about their goals. They make calculated decisions and think through a problem thoroughly before many any decision. Such managers minimize risk and pass that culture to their employees and subordinates.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a risk-averse culture, employees and managers are constantly learn, grow and improve.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, some cultures are more flexible and prefer taking risks. Managers in such cultures do not mind ambiguity and uncertainty. They are more inspired by the unknown and pass this motivation to their subordinates.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Communication\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Communication is the key to success in any business. But does it have to be verbal or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.attendancebot.com\/blog\/non-verbal-communication\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=in-line&amp;utm_campaign=management-styles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>non-verbal<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">? Well, some companies give more weightage to non-verbal than actual spoken words. Managers in such cultures expect their employees to understand the nonverbal cues such as body language to understand the actual message. Such cultures don\u2019t value words nor do they use many words. Instead, assign more weight to the emotional quality and relationship of the parties.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, some cultures operate oppositely. They prefer spoken words over non-verbal communication and communicate in words either spoken or written. In this case, it is the sender who is responsible to get the message out with clarity. If the receiver is unable to understand, the sender is responsible to ensure clarity and eliminate confusion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Adapt Management Styles in Different Situations?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A leader, however great an all-rounder has to adapt according to situations. A few steps that can help a leader adapt their management styles are:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Identify the Need<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are someone who follows a collaborative style of leadership but senses a change in the environment, you may want to give it a thought. You should study the situation carefully before making any change to your style. You also wouldn&#8217;t want to exhibit rigidity when it comes to changing your style as it may not yield the desired results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Change Your Mindset\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People resent change especially when they have been following a certain practice or style for a long. However, one has to despite the reservations. It is advisable to get rid of preconceived ideas and notions and pave way for new, dynamic ideas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Select the Most Appropriate Style\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This can be tricky. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, you can consider a few questions before making a choice:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which management style suits the situation best?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Will this style achieve the desired result?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What and who will it impact the most?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Improve Your Management Style?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your management style is dependent on your goals, the business, and the employees involved. There is no one perfect style that will suit you the best. You will have to use a combination of styles to yield the desired outcome.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What style you choose depends on your traits, temperament, and the kind of employees that work under you. This is because a management style that is incompatible with your personality and the situation will not even produce half of the desired results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:
