members are highly skilled and experienced that can solve the organisation’s issues of
manufacturing materials, safety, and usage of energy. This leadership style is chosen over
autocratic leadership style as in autocratic leadership style, the authority is only with the
leader. This lacks in communication with the subordinates, which may lead to wrong
decisions as the leader may not understand the critical issues related to safety of the
environment or defects in the manufacturing materials. The leader must critically evaluate the
problems related to improvement in the products for the manufacturing process and focus on
alternative fuels that can reduce pollution from oil and gas into the environment (Deveau

implemented by using ERP model for updating various activities practiced in the
