Being a leader of a successful and prosperous company is not so easy. After all, all people, including bosses, are very different. Practically in all the literature aimed at training successful leaders, five main types of leaders are distinguished, each of which combines many different qualities. According to experts, the nature and behavior of a particular manager always corresponds to a certain type of personality leader.
Main types of managers
As a rule, for their subordinates any director or manager is not the most positive hero of their working day. Therefore, in order to protect yourself from conflicts with management and to establish contact with the employer, it is important to know how to determine the type of personality of the leader.
- Of all the existing, the most recognized is the first type - "charismatic leader" . This manager strives to bring the company to a new level of development and introduce the latest technologies into production. Such a psychological type of leader is typical for self-confident, strong-willed people who do not tolerate and do not recognize failures. A charismatic leader always listens to the opinion of the employee, but not the fact that he agrees with him.
- The second psychological type of leader is a "diplomat" . This is a competent, benevolent, calm, balanced head, who prefers to conduct collective activities. Under such guidance, strive to maintain team spirit.
- The third type of leader is a "humanist" . Such director perceives the native collective not as a working staff, but rather as a large and friendly family. It is important for him to maintain a friendly atmosphere in the team. Therefore, often, not a single holiday at work can not do without traveling to nature or corporate. The humanist does not welcome the system of fines and strict control, but this does not mean that he will not find justice for violators of order.
- The fourth type of psychological leader is a "democrat" . It is important for this manager to establish trust with the staff and
share with him the responsibility for the work and success of the company. Follow all the instructions of the leader-democrat and try to perform his work as accurately as possible and soon, then you will be encouraged for the work. - The last of the main types of leaders is the "bureaucrat" . This is a typical boss whose orders are not discussed and executed without reflection. Love of rules, reports, analyzes, accurate data is one of the main distinctive qualities, the director-bureaucrat. If your boss personifies this type of leader, make sure that all orders and demands "from above" are properly executed and not otherwise. However, keep your ears open, in the collective bureaucratic boss of intrigue and conversations behind your back - a common thing, since everyone wants to take their "crown place" in the company.
