Say no and give an excuse like “my coach would kill me if he found out”
Answer:
a. autocratic leadership
Explanation:
Autocratic leadership is a style of leadership in which decision control is in the hands of only one individual, the leader, who rarely solicits or accepts the opinions and suggestions of his or her subordinates. Leaders who take this autocratic stance usually make their decisions with a focus on their individual beliefs and opinions. The main feature of this management system is absolute control and may at some point be viewed as authoritarian. An example of autocratic leadership can be seen in the question above, where the leader blamed the problems on his team and threatened to scold them instead of talking to the team and trying to understand and solve what is going on.
