=3 Types of Leadership =

1.) __Autocratic Leadership__ - one person runs everything, making all decisions. Autocratic leaders expect their orders will be followed without question. This type of leadership is good for firefighters, combat troops, and police officers.

2.) __Democratic Leadership__ - managers work with employees to make decisions. New ideas are encouraged, everyone meets to discuss a situation and listens to each other's opinions. However, the democratic leader makes the final decisions.

3.) __Free-Rein Leadership__ - Also referred to as a hands-off-leadership requires the leader to set goals for managers and employees and then leaves them alone to get it done! Places the utmost trust and confidence in workers. The leader must be available to answer questions and resolve problems but, much of the daily functions are delegated meaning the employees have the power to run things and make decisions.
