The Four Styles narrative of Leadership is written in three sections: (1) Overview of Leadership Styles; (2) Analysis of Leadership Styles; and (3) Applications of Leadership Styles. While the primary foundation for its development was generated from more than 30 years of research and studying leadership styles in education, the secondary foundation is generated from clients and colleagues representing more than 100 schools, colleges, and universities. This article is designed to facilitate awareness and provide instruction for leaders struggling with identification of their own leadership styles, as well as the identification of the most appropriate leadership style of subordinates. It also addresses the fact that it is difficult to get leaders to develop skills in a leadership style that is opposite of their preferred style. The key to success is for leaders to have the range of skills that allows them to use the appropriate leadership styles according to the situation or assign tasks to leaders based upon their preferred leadership style.
