DEFINITION OF LEADING AND LEADERSHIP        
Leading is the process of influencing others to act to accomplish specified objectives. A leader is one who has followers. He has formal or informal authority and power. A leader may be born or made by time, education, or training. A leader has common traits like intelligence, social sensitivity, and communication skills.

AUTHORITARIAN LEADERSHIP
            Authoritarian leaders usually determine the specific task for each participant because they often believe that group participants are limited in ability and need strict guidance and control. This style of leadership, therefore, is rigid and inflexible.
SUPERVISORY LEADERSHIP
            Supervisory leadership, which stops short of autocratic control, is useful when efficiency is critical.
PARTICIPATIVE LEADERSHIP
            Both authoritarian and supervisory leaders depend on method that limit the participation and freedom of other group members. Participative, or democratic, leaders encourage group members to participate actively in discussion.
GROUP-CENTERED LEADER SHIPS   

            Group-entered, or laissez faire, leaders expect group members to be self-directed. They refrain from structuring the group in any way. They listen but do not show approval or disapproval or disapproval, and although they may clarify on occasion, they are careful not to inject their own thoughts.
