There are no bad soldiers; there are only bad
captains.
Leadership plays a key role in human resource
management. Without leadership an organization
would only be a confusion of people and
machines.
Leadership is one of the most researched and
discussed areas.
Its importance lies not just in industry but in
almost every field of life — politics, sports,
religion, education and so on.

The Situational Model of
Hersey and Blanchard
Leadership is not a oneway affair.
The most important feature of the Situational
Leadership theory proposed by Hersey and

the followers.
Leadership is an interplay of the following three
dimensions:
(1) Task style
(2) Relationship style
(3) Maturity of followers ( Job & Psychological
Maturity)
According to Hersey and Blanchard, the key to
effective leadership is to match the situation
with the appropriate style. There are four
leadership styles —
(a) Telling Style: High task – Low rsp
(b) Selling Style: High task – High rsp
(c) Participating Style: Low task – High rsp
(d) Delegating Style: Low task – Low rsp
