It examines their different personalities and the leadership styles that bought them notoriety.From the Paper:
"Situational leadership theory suggests that leadership style should be matched to the maturity of subordinates; in other words, to the situation encountered by the leader. Maturity in this situational context is assessed in relation to both psychological maturity and job maturity. Psychological maturity refers to the self-confidence and ability and readiness to accept responsibility of subordinates. Job maturity refers to the relevant skills and technical knowledge possessed by subordinates (Hersey & Blanchard, 1996)."More papers on Leadership Styles:
