Summary

 The leader is concerned with:

I. The Task, which has to be achieved

ii. The Individuals, who have aspirations for growth and development

iii. The Group which has to remain cohesive

 Douglas McGregor said that behaviour was not the consequence only of

an individual's inherent nature, but was also a result of the manner in

which he is managed at work.

 Robert R Blake and Jane S Mouton developed the concept of the grid,

based on two criteria, the leader's concern for people and his concern for

the task.

 Prof. Bill Reddin developed on Blake's grid with the third dimension of

effectiveness. According to him, each of these four types can be effective

or ineffective depending on the circumstances in which it is applied.
