The scenario focuses on a leader who prioritizes employees' schedules, needs, development, and well-being, even at personal cost. This points toward a leadership style centered on serving others first.
Option 1: authentic leadership. While authentic leaders emphasize self-awareness, transparency, and consistency between values and actions, the key emphasis here is on serving followers rather than primarily on authenticity, so this option captures a related dimension but not the central emphasis of service to others.
Option 2: servant leadership. This style explicitly centers on the follower’s needs, empowering and developing them, and often involves going beyond self-interest to support others. The description—staying late, advocating in meetings, negotiating favorable conditions for employees—aligns closely with the core idea of serving followers.
Option 3: ethical leadership. Ethical leadership stresses moral principles, fairness, and principled decision-making. While these are important, the core behavior described is about serving and supporting employees, which goes beyond merely acting ethically.
Option 4: shared leadership. This approach distributes leadership responsibilities among group members rather than resting on a single leader. The vignette centers on one leader’s actions to support employees, not on distributing leadership across the team.
Option 5: transactional leadership. This style is built on exchanges and contingent rewards/punishments. The scenario does not emphasize a transactional exchange but a protective, service-oriented stance toward employees.
In summary, the actions described most strongly embody a leadership approach that places followers’ needs at the forefront, highlighting service and development of others rather than transactional exchanges, ethical compliance alone, distributed leadership, or authenticity as the primary driver.
