Which style of leadership is best for schools?

Correct answer: Democratic. Democratic leadership involves staff in decisions, builds cooperation, and suits the shared goals of schools.

• Autocratic: Autocratic leadership concentrates decisions in one person and discourages participation.
• Laissez-Faire: Laissez-faire leadership gives little direction and can leave a school without clear guidance.
• None of these: “None of these” is incorrect because democratic leadership is best.
