Answer:Path-Goal Model

Explanation:

The Path-Goal Model as developed by Martin Evans and Robert House is based on the expectancy theory of motivation and advocates the responsibility of leaders in helping and ensuring that its followers or subordinates have necessary information, motivation and resources to achieving set goals.

Here Leadership is not regarded as a position to exert power or control but rather a servant- leadership where the leader understands the characteristics of his or her subordinates and also the environmental characteristics of the workplace and therefore are able to provide the motivational needs and adjust their leadership style accordingly to ensure productivity in the group or organisation.
