Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is option (C) authority-compliance style.

Explanation:

The authority-compliance style In the context of the Blake/Mouton leadership grid describes when managers or bosses are overly concerned about the effectiveness with which their employees or subordinates get work done without regard for the well being of such employees.  

This kind of dictatorial management style is due to the fact that a manager or boss believes that the needs of his/her subordinates or employees are relatively unimportant when compared to achieving success or getting work effectively done.
