Moral leadership
Leadership styles
Decision making
A very powerful part of your style of leadership is your need to make decisions.
All leaders (including you and me) approach decision making based upon their
own beliefs about their responsibility for decisions, as well as their followers'
capacity to make decisions
Personality
Some personality factors do influence our leadership style. For example:

Outgoing and sociable leaders are more likely to connect with people and
communicate with them.

Tense leaders are more likely to be anxious about issues and communicate
their worries to their followers.

Leaders with a high need to be in control are more likely to keep decisions
to themselves and to dictate them to others.
Working environment
The working environment can have a big impact on the leadership style you might
adopt. The two main influences here are:

the demands of the organisation, its market, systems and processes

the culture of the organisation.
