Uncovering Leadership Styles
Organizations, business professionals, and even the public often take a keen interest in discussions about leadership style. The reasons for the popularity of

discussing leadership style approaches may lie in the way leadership researchers define leadership as a collection of observable behaviors. People can both observe and

learn behavior, unlike innate traits. When people study the behavior of a successful leader, such as a CEO, from a leadership styles perspective, they may seek to

uncover what aspects of that person’s leadership style led to his or her success. People then attempt to emulate that leadership style in the hope of achieving a

comparable level of success. Leaders with unconventional leadership styles, such as the late Apple founder Steve Jobs, attract considerable attention. Jobs’s

leadership helped make Apple one of the more prosperous companies in the world. He remains an inspiration in spite of his reputation for being rough on employees

(Isaacson, 2011). He achieved success despite the fact that his leadership style was different from those widely recommended in published leadership style approaches.

People like Jobs challenge previous assumptions and conceptions of good leadership. While many others debate these issues, researchers continue to look for empirical

and systematic ways to uncover an elusive link between leadership style and leadership success.
