The traits, behavioural tendencies, and characteristic methods of a person in a
leadership position. An important dimension of leadership style is the extent to which the
leader is willing to delegate responsibility and encourage input from followers; some key
styles here are those of the authoritarian leader, democratic leader, and laissez-faire
leader. Another basic dimension is the extent to which a leader is task-motivated
(concerned with defining goals and the means to achieve them) or relationship-
motivated (concerned with supporting and encouraging subordinates).
A distinction can also be drawn between the charismatic leader, who relies on his or
her personal qualities to inspire followers, and the bureaucratic leader, who depends on
his or her position in the hierarchy and an established set of rules and procedures. See
transactional leadership; transformational leadership.

Lynching 54
Lynching is an extrajudicial killing by a group. It is most often used to characterize
informal public executions by a mob in order to punish an alleged transgressor, punish a
convicted transgressor, or intimidate. It can also be an extreme form of informal group
social control, and it is often conducted with the display of a public spectacle (often in
the form of hanging) for maximum intimidation. Instances of lynchings and similar mob
violence can be found in every society.

Low Income Countries (LIC) 55
The World Bank assigns the world's economies to four income groups--low, lower-middle,
upper-middle, and high-income countries. The classifications are updated each year on
July 1 and are based on GNI per capita in current USD (using the Atlas method exchange
rates) of the previous year (i.e. 2019 in this case).
