So, it\u2019s important to consider your leadership style and how you can use it to create a better working environment for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What are the 7 leadership styles?<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Within business and management frameworks today, there are said to be<strong> <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/cpdonline.co.uk\/knowledge-base\/business\/different-leadership-styles\/\"><strong>seven leadership styles<\/strong><\/a> that managers can use within their teams to have a variety of different effects. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Autocratic<\/li><li>Authoritative<\/li><li>Pacesetting<\/li><li>Democratic<\/li><li>Coaching<\/li><li>Affiliative<\/li><li>Laissez-faire<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s consider each leadership style and some of the effects they will have on your team.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Autocratic<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Autocratic leaders are those that make decisions without consideration of others\u2019 opinions and often do so without sourcing advice from those it will impact. Consequently, decisions are made quickly by the leader, so teams can focus on completing the task. However, this approach can result in burnout amongst managers, and a team that is incapable of thinking for themselves or feels undervalued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When to use this leadership style:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>When making quick decisions<\/li><li>When you have experience in a situation and are confident in the correct process<\/li><li>To bring a disjointed team back together<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Authoritative<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Authoritative leaders make decisions independently but take the time to explain to their team their thought process. They provide support and guidance to help achieve an end goal and are more relaxed with what process individuals take to get there, allowing room for more creative thinking and learning opportunities. Although, if you\u2019re the only person making the decisions, your team will only ever be as good as you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When to use this leadership style:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>When making quick decisions<\/li><li>When training people<\/li><li>To provide clarity and guidance<\/li><li>To help people understand their role<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pacesetting<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Pacesetting leaders are often fast and motivated with an end goal and a step-by-step plan ready to go, expecting only the best out of themselves and their team. This could result in mistakes being hidden from you for fear of not meeting performance goals and targets. However, at the right time, this leadership style can be highly motivating as people will understand what the end goal is and how to get there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When to use this leadership style:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>When you are introducing new procedures or projects that you and your workforce feel excited about&nbsp;<\/li><li>When you need a fast turnover time for a piece of work&nbsp;<\/li><li>When your team need to pick up the pace<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>RELATED:<\/strong><strong> <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyoffices.com\/blog\/work-environment\/how-do-i-motivate-my-team\"><strong>How do I motivate my team?<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Democratic<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Democratic leaders are listeners. Presenting an idea to their team and taking in their opinions to work towards an end goal collaboratively. In this environment, everyone feels heard and valued, creating&nbsp; higher office morale. This method of managing allows the leader to make the final decision whilst making the most of their teams\u2019 insight, allowing for creative and interesting discussions and ideas. However, waiting for everyone\u2019s input can slow down what may have been a quick decision and some voices might get lost amongst those who are louder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When to use this leadership style:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Team building<\/li><li>Reflective group discussions<\/li><li>To hear a fresh perspective on an issue<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>RELATED: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyoffices.com\/blog\/work-environment\/learn-team-building-from-rugby\"><strong>What we can learn about team building from Rugby<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Coaching<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Coaches are leaders who invest themselves in the progress of others, take time to build team members\u2019 skills and present learning opportunities as often as possible. Managers who use this method will provide an end goal and guide their teams to get there, whilst allowing room for them to make mistakes and learn from them. This can be very time consuming and people that want to get on with a task may get frustrated. However, coaching can be a brilliant tool to help teams feel supported and empowered in their role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When to use this leadership style:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Skill-building or training<\/li><li>To recognise areas for improvement<\/li><li>To build confidence<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Affiliative<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Affiliative leadership encourages discussion and collaboration within and across teams. This often creates a feeling of community around the office, where colleagues can feel comfortable and relaxed. <a href=\"https:\/\/futureofworking.com\/affiliative-leadership-style-advantages-disadvantages-and-characteristics\/\"><strong>Many modern offices are taking on an affiliative approach<\/strong><\/a>, as it focuses more on the well-being of the worker by creating a positive environment. However, it\u2019s important to maintain boundaries with this method, as if unchecked you may find yourself letting the quality of work slip, being taken advantage of or becoming too friendly with your team which makes it difficult to give constructive criticism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When to use this leadership style:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Working with different departments<\/li><li>Acknowledging people\u2019s hard work<\/li><li>To support team members through difficult times<\/li><li>Encourage communication<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Laissez-faire<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Laissez-faire leaders try not to interfere with their team, trusting them to complete tasks without their guidance, and step in only to provide feedback when necessary. This method is less stressful for both parties and encourages teams to be more autonomous and creative. However, it\u2019s important to find a balance between giving your team space to do what they do best and making sure they aren\u2019t disengaging and abusing your trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When to use this leadership style:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>To encourage creative thinking<\/li><li>When observing teams dynamics and ability to communicate and collaborate<\/li><li>To empower teams and develop trust between them and you<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to find out your style of leadership<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Finding your style of leadership will allow you to understand how to use it more effectively in the workplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow these four steps to discover what type of leader you are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Recognise <\/strong>your current practices &#8211; How do you currently manage your team?
