Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
A purely task-centered leadership style (autocratic style) thrives on power. It involves telling someone what to do, with little regard for the employee as a person who may have ideas about how to improve patient care or reach the goals of the employer. Situational leadership involves varying leadership style to meet the demands of the situation in the work environment. Focusing on both the task and the employee is characteristic of the democratic style of leadership. A purely people-oriented style (laissez-faire) focuses on people's feelings but ignores the task at hand. It allows employees to act without any direction.
