S/he will just tell the team or individuals what s/he wants to be done, when to do it and even how to do it without consultation from the team members. If you are short of time this might be the best way to get your employees motivated. People see this style of leadership as the wrong way of motivating individuals and leaders using this style can appear bossy. Some also argue that this style of leadership must be used sparingly and the best way of motivating your team would be to use the democratic style. • Democratic This leadership style is used when the leader wants to involve the team members in the decision making process.
Decision making with your employees will let them gain respect for the leader and become more determined. This style will bring strength between you and your employees. Laissez-Faire-This style is used when the leader is lazy or distracted, it’s more of a you do what you want style. This style can be used when the team is highly capable and motivated, it’s when the team doesn’t need close monitoring or supervision. This style can cause failure when the leader expects the group to make the decision between themselves when they are un sure about what they need to achieve and how they need to accomplish the task.
There are many leadership styles that I use authoritarian, delegate, companionable and synergistic. Authoritarian leaders provide clear expectations for what needs to be done, when it should be done, and how it should be done. They make decisions independently with little or no input. The supervisor checks on their employees frequently because they cannot be trusted to fulfill their task it is believed that this style developed from the belief that employees require continuous attention because they are undependable or immature.

This could be because there is not enough officers either on at the same time or not enough officers in the department all together.
It is important not to speak out of angry emotions, and again sometimes it is best to tell an employee that one may need to think on the matter first before responding. While it may not seem like a "big deal" it is important to make sure that the words that are used when speaking to employees are simple and clear. Some employees may not understand the use of large words, and therefore the message that the manager / supervisor is trying to convey may be lost. Good grammar is also a must for every type communication. Use of slang terms is not a wise idea, as what is acceptable in generation / culture could be offensive to the next.. We must make sure we are saying exactly what we mean to and clearly enough that so that others are going to hear exactly what the manager / supervisor is trying to say.
In the public services, these types of leaderships will be used within different circumstances, authoritarian is best in urgent situations but laissez-faire is better for those who are experts and know exactly what they are doing and don't depend on a leader, they are similar because they both focus on the task in hand but one is directed every step by a demanding leader, sometimes, authoritarian could be bad style to use as it could make the other team members feel under pressure and lack motivation but leading in a laissez-faire manner will make the members feel more important because they have freedom to work the way they feel best. If there was to be a car accident, authoritarian would be a better approach because whether it was ambulance, police or fire, they will need to get the victims to hospital and road cleared as quickly as possible but it'd take longer if the team didn't know what their roles were and what they were
By obeying and following rules the services are able to deal with all kinds of situations that they are facing and achieve their goals. If the service was lacking discipline then everyone would be doing what they please and there wouldn’t be a good team work either. There would be no team cohesion because of everyone being undisciplined so therefore nothing would get accomplished and the country would suffer. Orders must be followed in order to have a good discipline in the services. The consequences of someone not following orders could be serious or even life threatening.
Below are all the different types’ leadership styles used in the public services and comparing all there advantages and disadvantages. Authoritarian Authoritarian leadership is a very direct leadership style where the team members MUST do what the team leader has said, if the work is not completed efficiently enough there will be consequences. This approach is not generally considered to be the most appropriate way to get the best response from a team in ordinary working life, but in the armed forces where urgency and pressure is needed to succeed, it is a necessary leadership style. Advantages Disadvantages Maintains order and discipline The team will rely just on the team leader to tell them what to do Decisions are made by only experienced leaders that know what they are doing Team members may feel devalued and fearful of punishment Allows inexperienced recruits to know how and when to do something Team members might not like being ordered what to do all the time without them being told why they have to do it Role of the team leader.

While verbal communication can be prepared and even practiced, non verbal communication is usually involuntary. Non verbal communication, also known as, body language can be very telling of what the speaker actually means to say, or how the speaker feels about what is being said no matter how hard it is tried to be concealed. Public speaking is an inevitable duty of those working in the criminal justice field. When some crimes are committed, the media can latch on to the story and not let go. The media has been known to work side by side in helping the police departments, but it has also been known to work against those in law enforcement.
They also need support and praise to build their self-esteem and involvement in decision-making to restore their commitment. S3 – Participating / Supporting – The leader passes day-to-day decisions, such as task allocation and processes, to the worker. The leader facilitates and takes part in decisions, but control is with the worker. This style is used in situations where a worker is clearly competent but lacks confidence or motivation.
