The original path-goal theory identifies achievement-oriented, directive, participative, and supportive leader behaviors: 1. Directive leadership: Specific advice is given to the group and ground rules and structure are established. For example, clarifying expectations, specifying or assigning certain work tasks to be followed. Directive behavior is suited to uncertain and ambiguous situations.
