Explaining the Laissez faire leadership style.
Warren Buffet is a very successful investor of all time and the leadership style that he
uses for his companies is the laissez-faire. The meaning of this leadership is' let it be'. The
laissez-faire leaders have a behaviour of trust and certainty on its employees. The leaders of
laissez-faire do not get itself in participation or train and guide the employees of the company
(Northouse,2019). The benefit of this leadership is that it gives a free and pleasurable work
environment and the staff also practices the leadership and it also helps in increasing the
employee morale. It also brings out the creative part out of the individual and the employees are
always motivated this is the reason that why Warren Buffet chose this leadership style in its
organisations.
The consequences and the outcomes of the leadership.
There are some consequences and the outcomes of this leadership the positive outcome is
that it offers its employees a stress-free and free environment. This leadership does not make
people feel controlled or feeling of pressure of manager on their shoulder. This way it helps the
staff to relax and enjoy their work and communicate very well with the peers. But there is also
some negative outcomes such as confusion among the staff because they gain very less direction
from their managers and due to this they get confused in understanding role of their job. Few
incompetent leaders uses this leadership in running away from the reduced accountability and
when the purpose is not fulfilled the leaders very easily blames the team and the staff of the
company (Lundmark,Richter and Tafvelin,2022).
Examples of the similar leadership styles.
The laissez-faire leadership is the straight opposite of the autocratic leadership. Rather
than an individual leader makes every decision for the company or for a team the laissez-faire
makes very less decision and let their employees take a right solution for the office (Breevaart
and Zacher,2019). The laissez-faire leadership is most similar is with the democratic leadership
as the leaders of democratic also takes an involvement in the decision-making procedure, but
they come to others and carry the duty for seeing that the decisions made accomplish the wanted
outcomes. As per the scholarly sources there is some major traits of the leadership and that is
intelligence, integrity, self-confidence, determination, sociability. The intelligence is optimistic
