Compare and contrast the coaching leadership style with the supporting leadership style. Give an example of when leaders should use coaching versus when they should use a supporting style.
Imagine that you have emerged as the leader of your group project in class. Your group has been working together for five weeks on the major part of a finance project, the in-class group presentation. One group member has missed several group meetings and is minimally contributing to the ideas and final product for the in-class presentation. This group member is a junior in finance with a minor in communication and has stated that she is an expert in PowerPoint and multimedia presentations. Using the SLII® as a framework, which leadership style might work best with this particular group member, and why?
