LEADER-MEMBER EXCHANGE THEORY (LMX)

The leader-member exchange theory of leadership focuses on the two-way relationship between supervisors and subordinates

leader-member exchange focuses on increasing organizational success by creating positive relations between the leader and subordinate.

Page 18: Presentation on Leadership Theories

The leader-member exchange theory argue that, because of time pressures, leaders establish a special relationship with small group of there followers. These individuals make up in-group and other follower fall in the out-group.

The in group member are trusted, get more leader attention, and are more likely to receive special privilege.

On the other hand out group member get less of the leader time, get fewer of the preferred rewards.

Page 19: Presentation on Leadership Theories

The quality of the LMX relationship varies. It is better when the challenge of the job is extremely high or extremely low.

The theory can also work upwards as well. The leader can gain power by being a member of his or her manager's inner circle, which the leader can then share with subordinates.

SITUATIONAL LEADERSHIP THEORYBY-PAUL HERSEY AND KENNTH BLANCHARD

Situational leadership requires…

Leader’s focus on task behavior (i.e. giving guidance & direction) to subordinates.

Their focus on relationship behavior and maturity in performing their tasks.

ACCORDING TO THE AUTHORS……

The relationship between leaders and subordinates moves to four steps which are as follows….

Directing or telling phase managers directing the goals to employees

and make familiar them with the culture and rules of the organization where they suppose to work.

Page 22: Presentation on Leadership Theories

Selling or coaching phase After coming into the organization its

managers responsibility to coach the subordinates wherever need arise.

Participating or supporting phase Gradually the subordinates becomes

mature and start taking the responsibility, the manager will no longer need to directive to them because they themselves will be on the verge of becoming manager.

Page 23: Presentation on Leadership Theories

Delegating phase In this stage manager can reduce the

amount of support and encouragement as subordinate gradually become more confident , self –directing and experienced.
