The 3 Most Effective Types of Leaders

Leadership within an organization can be as contrasting as the seasons here in our beautiful Okanagan Valley! Management styles range on quite a broad spectrum – but not all forms of leadership are efficient or created equally.

As an award winning recruitment company, we’ve learned that there are three main types of leadership styles that are proven to be most effective, depending on what your overall objective is. Let’s take a closer look at each management style below:

Self-Ruling Leadership:

This type of leader makes all the decisions. While you may not think this would be an effective way to lead, as it’s not a team-oriented approach, it’s actually quite efficient when it comes to getting quick resolutions. With self-ruling leadership, your team isn’t tied up in endless meetings and conversations that go in circles because, ultimately, one person makes the final call. If your objective is to be firm and action-oriented, then self ruling leadership is for you.

Strategy Driven Leadership:

The leader who is driven by strategy will attempt to balance what’s best for the company and what also benefits the team overall. They appreciate collaborative input from all levels within the organization and make an effort to maintain steadiness for employees, while bridging necessary innovation for growth. If your objective aligns with “slow and steady wins the race”, you are a strategy driven leader.

Strength Coaching Leadership:

Stemming from a focus on individual strengths, this leader recognizes that success is only as solid as the foundation it’s built on. This is a leadership style that recognizes that team members are key players in the game. These leaders pride themselves on tactically coaching each recruit to grow their existing assets, which in turn heightens the effectiveness of the team and expands on the company’s accomplishments overall. If your objective is to create a culture for individual growth in tandem with your business’ success, you embody the strength coaching leadership style.
