Mintzberg’s Management Styles

Mintzberg’s Management Styles describe different ways managers lead and make decisions. They include: - **Autocratic**: The manager makes decisions alone, with little input from others. - **Participative**: The manager involves team members in decision-making. - **Laissez-faire**: The manager provides minimal guidance, allowing team members to work independently. - **Consultative**: The manager seeks input from team members before making decisions. - **Decisive**: The manager quickly makes choices, often in urgent situations. These styles reflect how managers balance authority, collaboration, and independence in leading their teams.
