Explanation:
A leader can be defined as an individual who is saddled with the responsibility of controlling, managing and maintaining a group of people under him or her.
Some types of power expressed by leaders are referent power, coercive, etc.
Generally, managers are typically involved in taking up leadership roles and as such are expected to be build a strong relationship between their employees or subordinates by creating a fair ground for effective communication and sharing of resources and information.
I. The least preferred co-worker (LPC) questionnaire: identifies leadership style by measuring whether a person is task oriented or relationship oriented.
II. The situational leadership theory (SLT): states that successful leadership depends on selecting the right leadership style contingent on the follower’s readiness.
III. Fiedler contingency model: proposes that effective group performance depends on the proper match between the leader’s style and the degree to which the situation gives the leader control.
IV. Path-goal theory: suggests that it’s the leader’s job to provide followers with information, support, or other resources necessary to achieve goals
