Answer to Question 1

D
The leadership dimension of consideration involves activities that focus on the employee. Initiating
structures of leadership involves an emphasis on the work to be done, and a focus on the task and
production.

Answer to Question 2

B
Democratic leadership is participatory, and authority is delegated to others. Autocratic leadership
involves centralized decision making, with the leader making decisions and using power to command
and control others. Laissez-faire leadership is passive and permissive, and the leader defers decision
making. Employee-centered leadership focuses on the human needs of subordinates.
