This leadership model is based on adapting the type of leadership that the boss must take with respect to the level of development of the employees and the situation in which they find themselves, which makes it quite effective, since the most appropriate is exercised with respect to the situation in which the work team is adapting to their needs.
According to experts in work psychology, the leader can have two types of behavior, the manager, this focuses on the fulfillment of the tasks to be carried out, indicating when and where they should be carried out, and the supportive behavior, which is directed more towards the work group, since it encourages the participation of the members and motivates them.
As mentioned, the leader adapts to situations, resulting in various leadership styles, for example control, everything is done under strict orders from the leader, subordinates only follow orders, there is also the case in which responsibilities They are delegated to all workers as decision-making is shared, supervision on the other hand takes into account the ideas of subordinates but they are in constant vigilance, advice is when both the leader and the people in charge They are part of the decision making and control is exercised by both parties, finally there is the delegation which is characterized by the fact that the leader intervenes very few times since most of the responsibilities have been delegated.
The situations in which subordinates find themselves can also vary, experts point out that there are four types of levels of development of groups of workers and for which the leader will have to take a different position, the level of development one is characterized by the group does not have great competitionto carry out the tasks therefore the commitment is low, therefore the leader must always be on the lookout, at level two the work team has certain skills to carry out the work but they must always be under supervision, since they lack commitment, The development of level three is characterized by the fact that the group has the knowledge and the commitment of the variable, they can carry out the tasks but they still require advice so that they can be carried out quickly, finally at level four the leader can delegate the tasks tasks since your team is trained to perform the tasks and are committed to them.
