They seek relevant information from their sources and consider factual and detailed information before taking any decision. Such managers are careful decision makers as they have the ability to adapt or cope with unique situations. |
Behavioral Decision Making |
Leaders who follow this model believe in participative management and consider the achievement of subordinates and always take suggestions from them. They try to get inputs from subordinates through meetings and discussions. They try to avoid/resolve conflicts as acceptance by others is important to them. |
