L meets with F as group, decision alone) - Participative (L discusses problems with F individually, decision together. L meets with F as group, decision together) |
Normative Decision Model | - leadership decision style that is most conducive to effectiveness depends on demands of situation - Leadership Decision Style -> (Situational Demands) -> Decision Quality/Decision Acceptance -> Unit Performance |
Normative Decision Rules | Rules to limit leadership styles to those feasible sets that protect the quality of the solution and/or acceptance of the decision 1. decision quality is important and followers have relevant information: not AI, not AII 2. decision quality is important and followers dont share goal commitment: not GII 3. decision acceptance is important + followers are unlikely to accept autocratic decision:not AI, notAII 4. decision acceptance is important+ followers disagree about best decision: not AI, notAII, not CI 5. When followers are likely not to accept autocratic decision and share leader’s goals: GII |

Is problem well structured? 5. would team support it if decision alone? 6. Team shares orga. goals? 7. Conflict amongst team over decision likely? |
Evaluation of Normative Decision Making Model | Strengths: - well supported by evidence - explains how leadership decision styles affect unit performance - takes into account different contingency factors, acounts for causality - simplified model gives practical guidance on participation Weaknesses: - very complex and hard to implement in practice - deals with only small set of leader behaviors related to decision-making |
