Democratic Leadership
Democratic Leadership Style
The democratic leadership style is also referred to as shared leadership or participative leadership, encourages members of a team to take on responsibilities in decision-making. It is a leadership style that can be used by any leader in any industry, from corporations to educational facilities to government positions. During my employment at a plastic manufacturerna as a floor supervisor . I use what I believed the best of shared leadership . I was told that I was taking over the the high producted crew . That was true was but the also had the highest scrap rate. The most amazing thing that it was alright because plastic could be recycle. I had to show the amout of money lost in the scrap. The labor cost for producing scrap , the labor hours to grid the scrap parts. T he cost of not being able to meet shiping goals. One my problems that add to the issues was turn over rate which was fight mangement to establish a bonus tie to goals and attended require to qualified for the bonuses . I had to proof that I was the person to help them grow. I remeber when I was ask to coach a Little League team 10th and 11 graders. I try everything to help them winning but they would not listen so I made the decision to take some of my best players of the starting roster. They made the comments that we were going to lose all thegames. My response was we are doing that already. So I did the same thing and fired the biggest mouth on the crew and he made the statment as I was walking him out he made to crew member I will see you guys tomorrow . The next day many of the crew share with me that he was lazy and would not do his share of work. So I ask how it felt to help him get a check and ask them the getting rid of the bad apple for the good of the team. I will share more of a Democratic Leadership Style.
