Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
In autocratic or authoritarian leadership, the leader/manager makes the majority of
the decisions without direct consultation with employees. Laissez-faire or permissive leadership
occurs when little or no direction or guidance is provided. Participative leadership involves
extensive input from employees.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
A sound performance appraisal is shared with the employee who is the subject of
the appraisal. The appraisal system should be strongly supported by administration and
employees should be made aware of who will appraise them. An employee's personality should
not be the focus for appraisal.
