Overview: The Situational Leadership model uses a 4 box grid based on the amount of direction and support an employee needs. Directing Leaders define the roles and tasks of the 'Follower', and supervise them closely. Decisions are made by the leader and announced, so communication is largely one-way. Coaching Leaders still define roles and tasks, but seeks ideas and suggestions from the follower. Decisions remain the leader's prerogative, but communication is much more two-way. Supporting Leaders pass day-to-day decisions, such as task allocation and processes, to the follower. The leader facilitates and takes part in decisions, but control is with the follower. Delegating Leaders are still involved in decisions and problem-solving, but control is with the follower.
