HERSEY BLANCHERD'S MODEL
HERSEY BLANCHERD'S MODEL is also known as life cycle theory of leadership. There are 4 leadership styles each being appropriate to a specific level of maturity. Four leadership styles are telling, selling ,participating and delegatting. 1. Telling → Where the subordinates have low maturity ,that is, neither they have ability nor they are willing to do, they require telling leadership style it emphasizes directive behaviour and involves high task behaviour and low relationship behaviour it means you are concern about work and not about relations. 2. Selling →For subordinates of moderate maturity who have high willingness but lack ability, selling leadership style is appropriate. The subordinate required both supportive and directive behaviour which is marked by high task and high relationship behaviour. In other words, it is task oriented but relation oriented also. 3. Participating → Subordinates who have ability to do but lack willingness require high external motivating force. In such a situation, participating leadership style with low task behaviour and high relationship behaviour is most appropriate. 4. Delegating → The subordinates who have both ability and willingness to work, hardly require any leadership support. The most appropriate leadership style in such a situation is delegating which involves low task behaviour and low relationship behaviour. Palak 2006 (talk) 04:19, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
