The contingency theories
INTRODUCTION
The aim of this report is to evaluate groups of contingency theories of leadership and discuss the suitable leadership for the modern world. Furthermore the papers looks in depth in the practical aspects of pass-goal, fiedler, vroom and house lastly heresy Blanchard theories. Leadership is a process in which an individual influences a group of people to achieve a set goal (Northhouse 2013). According to Stephen C. Betts contingency theory is considered a dominant, theoretical, rational, open system model at the structural level of analysis in organization theory (Scott, 1992). The basic proclamation of contingency theory is that the environment in which a business operates …show more content…
C. Lunenburg (2011) suggest that Vroom Expectancy theory is more concerned with the thought experiences that go into motivation and the way they relate to each other. The model provides guidelines for enhancing employee motivation by altering the individual’s effort-to-performance expectancy, performance-to-reward belief. It helps to harmonize individual goal with organizational objectives as well as it understands the subjective differences that cause differences in motivation of different individuals DR P. Parijit and S. Bagga (2014). The managers can be benefitted from the expectancy theory as it helps them to understand the psychological processes that cause motivation. Theory ignores wholly the nature of the work and assumes that explicit rewards are valued (Dr M. Clayton). According to P. Chaudhary (2014) the research that has been conducted to test the theory, overall results suggest that the theory can be useful as a predictor of the choices people will make when given different tasks, and remains a standard theory in the workplace. It has been noticed that small scale industries use to implement the pull strategy rather than the push strategy as it creates low lobar …show more content…
The theory acknowledges the importance of followers and builds on the logic that leaders can compensate for ability and motivational limitations in their followers, Understanding of the situational leadership theory is probably enhanced by considering it as a fairly direct adaptation of the grid framework to reflect four stages of follower readiness n (C.F. Fernandez and R.P. Vecchio 1997). The drive of situational leadership is to help the followers to develop capability and commitment to the task given, coaching them how to provide their own direction. The study emphases that effectiveness is maximized by matching the level of leadership style with follower readiness (MWAI, Esther
