TUI travel company is a UK based travel company and this was formerlyknown as Thomson holidays (Brennan, Kirwan and Redmond, 2016). The management ofTUI travel use various types of management and leading styles which will be helping theindividual employee of the company in understanding how to grow. The different types ofmanagement styles which are used by the TUI managers are as follows:Autocratic style- This is also known as dictator style of leading where all types of decisionsare taken by one person of the company only. The manager of the company is taking decisionof company on unilateral bases and did not regard even the most talented and experiencedsubordinate of company. In the decision of autocratic management style, opinions andpersonality of that manager who is involved in taking decision is only reflected. In this also,there are two types through which manager can take decision:1
In which they do not consult any other from the subordinates and take the decisionIn the other they give permission to give the subordinate chance to suggest.The main drawback of autocratic management style is that the manager who perform negatesall form of teamwork and they also refuse to delegate authority to anyone else inorganisation.Consultative style- As the name suggests, in this type of management managers beforecoming to any of the decision always consult others in company (Mathe, Scott-Halsell andRoseman, 2016). This is in contrast to autocratic style as this gives the employee chance tosuggest about decision but in autocratic style management only give the instruction.Therefore, in this type of management style communication is the main element withoutwhich it cannot consult the subordinate before coming to decision. The main drawback ofconsultative management style is that it is very time-consuming process as many employeesneed to be considered.Participative style- This is also known as democratic management style in which all theemployees of an organisation are considered and their views and suggestions are taken beforecoming to any decision. The amount of communication in this type of management style isvery extensive as this is the main and most important element of the process. Takingemployees from the lowest part to the top most part of the organisation and then asking themabout certain decision is done (Kaynak, 2014). This involves high amount of job satisfactionamong the employees as the quality of work of the employee will be increasing and alsoinclude the participation of the subordinates. The demerit of this type of management style isalso there if the communication process of the company is not very good and is lengthy thenthis will consume a lot of time to come to certain decision.Laissez Faire- In this type of management style, all the employees are allowed to show theircreativity and give a stronger opinion and ideas about the present issue. Managers in thecompany are considered to more than mentor and less than leader. There is also a demerit inthis type as the employee will only be involved in the decision making and not in performingtheir work or job.All the managers at TUI travel from top to bottom need to have certain similarcharacteristics so that they can manage their employees and their work effectively (O'Cassand Sok, 2013). Senior management need these characteristics more than that of juniormanagement as they are the one who is involved in taking the decision for whole company.2
