Benefits

专制风格往往听起来非常消极。它肯定可以在过度使用或应用于错误的群体或情况时。然而,专制领导可以在某些情况下有益,例如在没有与一大群人咨询的情况下需要快速做出决定。

Some projects requirestrong leadership快速有效地完成事物。当领导者是本集团中最知识的人时,专制风格会导致快速有效的决策。专制领导风格在以下实例中可以有用:

Provides Direction

Autocratic leadership can be effective in small groups where leadership is lacking.您是否曾与一群学生或合作工人合作,以贫困组织出轨,缺乏领导力和无法设定截止日期?

如果是这样,机会就是您的成绩或工作表现所遭受的。在这种情况下,利用专制风格的强大领导者可以负责该组,将任务分配给不同的成员,并为要完成的项目建立固体期限。

These types of group projects tend to work better when one person is either assigned the role of leader or simply takes on the job on their own. By setting clear roles, assigning tasks, and establishing deadlines, the group is more likely to finish the project on time and with everyone providing equal contributions.

减轻压力

This leadership style can also be used well in cases where a great deal of pressure is involved. In situations that are particularly stressful, such as during military conflicts, group members may prefer an autocratic style.

这允许集团的成员专注于执行特定的任务,而无需担心进行复杂的决策。这也允许小组成员在执行某些职责方面非常擅长,这最终有利于整个组的成功。

Offers Structure

制造业和施工工作也可以受益于专制风格。在这些情况下,每个人都有明确分配的任务,截止日期和规则。

专制领导者在这些环境中往往会很好地做得好,因为他们确保项目按时完成,而工人遵循安全规则以防止事故和伤害。

Downsides

虽然专制领导有时是有益的,但也有许多情况,这种领导风格可能是有问题的。滥用专制领导风格的人往往被视为专横,控制和独裁。这有时会导致组成员之间的怨恨。

集团成员最终能够感觉到他们没有输入或者在如何完成或完成的情况下,当团队的熟练和有能力的成员被留下时,这可能特别有问题,因为他们的知识和贡献被破坏了。专制领导的一些常见问题:

Discourages Group Input

Because autocratic leaders make decisions without consulting the group, people in the group may dislike that they are unable to contribute ideas. Researchers have also found that autocratic leadership often results in a lack of creative solutions to problems, which can ultimately hurt the group from performing.

专制领导者倾向于忽视集团成员可能带来局势的知识和专业知识。未能在此类情况下与其他团队成员咨询伤害本集团的整体成功。

伤害士气

在某些情况下,专制领导也会损害本集团的士气。当他们觉得他们为群体的未来做出贡献时,人们往往会感到更快乐,表现得更好。由于专制领导者通常不允许团队成员的意见,因此追随者开始感到不满和窒息。

How to Be Successful

专制风格在某些设置中可能有益,但也有其陷阱,并且不适合每个设置和每个组。如果这往往是您的主导领导风格,只要您处于领导作用,您应该考虑的事情。

听取团队成员

您可能不会改变主意或实施他们的建议,但下属需要觉得他们能够表达他们的担忧。专制领导有时可以使团队成员感到忽视甚至拒绝。

Listening to people with an open mind can help them feel like they are making an important contribution to the group's mission.

建立明确的规则

为了预计团队成员遵循您的规则,您需要先确保明确建立指南,并且您团队中的每个人都充分了解它们。

Provide Tools

Once your subordinates understand the rules, you need to be sure that they actually have the education and abilities to perform the tasks you set before them. If they need additional assistance, offer oversight and training to fill in this knowledge gap.

Be Reliable

不一致的领导人可以迅速失去他们团队的尊重。按照并执行您建立的规则。建立你是一个可靠的领导者,你的团队更有可能遵循你的指导,因为你对他们建立了信任。

认识成功

你的团队可能会很快输掉motivation如果他们只批评他们犯错误但从不奖励他们的成功时。试图让成功比你指出错误。通过这样做,您的团队将对您的更正更有利地回应。

A Word From Verywell
