Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": high task structure, good leader-member relations, and strong position power.

Explanation:

Austrian researcher Fred E. Fiedler (1922-2017) proposed in his Contingency Theory that there is no set style of leadership since they would depend on the situation that requested a certain type of leader. That situation, referred in Fiedler's theory as "Situational Favorableness", depended on:

  • Task Structure: type of task in charge.
  • Leader-Member Relations: trust subordinates have on leaders.
  • Leader's Position Power: the power to direct the team.

Fiedler stated that maximum control is achieved when leaders have high task structure, good leader-member relations, and strong position power.
