tool for developing leaders in industry and commerce.
2. Adair’s model is a practical tool, thus it focuses on what leaders need to actually do
(as opposed to trait theories which focus on what they need to be).
3. Traittheories are based on the idea that leaders are born, not made. Theysuggest
that there are certain personal qualities that are commonto successfulleaders.
4. Adair’s theory is based on3 variables (his3 interlocking circles) – task needs, group
needs and individual needs. There is a need for balance between achieving the task,
maintaining the group/team and developing theindividual.
5. Blakeand Mouton produced a grid based on two dimensions of leadership –concern
for production and concern forpeople. A leader who focuses excessively on
achievement of the task shows high concern for production but minimal concern for
people – a ‘produce or perish’ mentality.
6. In the Blake and Mouton model, a leader who focuses excessively on staff needs and
developing satisfying relationships will pay little attention to results – the ‘country club’
style.
