Abstract: Abstract What harm is done by a lack of leadership? What are the tell–tale signs that leadership is lacking? Starting with the answers to these questions, this chapter will compare parenting styles with leadership styles. Section 6.2 presents a leadership model, based on a thorough understanding of leadership theory. Various leadership styles are described and supplemented with insights from the field of developmental psychology. Section 6.3 explains which leadership styles are conducive to the recovery of neglected organizations, which are not, and how these affect organization development. Section 6.4 compares neglectful or laissez-faire leadership with other types of destructive leadership while Section 6.5 provides a list of interventions necessary to change existing, adverse leadership styles. Finally, Section 6.6 discusses how various leadership styles affect subordinates’s trust in their manager.
