D. autocratic
E. free-rein
free-rein
Answer:
The answers are:
1. C. autocratic
2. E. free-rein
Explanation:
Autocratic leaders are little concerned with the interpersonal aspect of decision-making. They center the decision-making process in their own judgments and opinions. Advice and other forms of input are seldom accepted. This type of leader tends to see employees as unreliable, and believe they need to control every step in the process to accomplish a certain result.
On the other hand, the free-rein leadership style, also known as laissez-faire, is characterized by lack of interference. The leaders who practice free-rein value interpersonal relationships over the task itself. They allow employees to make their own decisions to accomplish the organizational objectives.
