Democratic Leader

kurt lewin: set out to identify different styles of leadership. But I'll stress on one of the most needed leadership in nowadays the Democratic leadership.

Democratic leadership, also known as participative leadership, is a type of leadership style in which members of the group take a more participative role in the decision-making process. Researchers found that this style is usually one of the most effective leader's styles with higher productivity, better contributions from group member's and increased group morale.

Characteristics of Democratic Leadership:

Things from the primary characteristics of democratic leadership include :

1- Group members are motivated, encouraged to share ideas and opinions, even though the leader has their final say over decisions.

2- Members of the group feel more engaged in the process.

3- Creativity needed and rewarded.

Strengths of Democratic Leadership:

Because group members are encouraged and motivated  to share their thoughts, democratic leadership can lead to better ideas and more creative solutions to problems. Group members also feel more involved and committed to processes and operations, making them more likely to care about the end results. The democratic leadership leads to higher productivity among group members.

Weaknesses of Democratic Leadership:

While democratic leadership has been described as the most effective leadership style, it does have some potential weaknesses . In situations where roles are unclear or time is of the essence, democratic leadership can lead to communication failures and uncompleted projects. In some cases, group members may not have the necessary knowledge or expertise to make quality contributions to the decision-making process.

Therefore Democratic leadership works best in situations where group members are skilled and eager to share their knowledge. It is also important to have plenty of time to allow people to contribute, develop a plan and then vote on the best solution of action.
