Talk:Situational leadership theory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] expressing a point of view ?
- A good situational leader is one who can quickly change leadership styles as the situation changes. Most of us attempt to do this in our dealings with people: we try not to get angry with a new employee, and we remind forgetful people. The model doesn't apply only to people in leadership or management positions, all people lead others at work, at play, and at home.
It seems to me that the first sentence assumes that the reader believes this theory. Some people might think that a good leader is one who controls the situation enough to never have to change his or her style. The second sentence assumes that most people try not to get angry with new employees, and that most people remind forgetful people. I think statements like "most" need sources, if I understand Wikipedia well enough. Furthermore, the last statement that "all people lead others" is contrary to many different philosophies on the subject of human choice and it's existence or non-existence.
I'm not sure how I'd like this to read, since I'm not an expert on this subject, but I think there might be some room for improvement along those lines.
