The answer is 3. Jim is a high-high style leader.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can answer this question by referring to the model Leadership Grid. This was created by two researchers, Robert Blake and Jane Mouton in 1985 by focusing on 2 aspects of leadership,

1. Task orientation
2. People orientation

The four quadrants represent the level of strength of the two behaviors.

If a person is extremely oriented in his/her followers and there well being, we call him "high" on people orientation.

If a person is extremely oriented in his/her targets and objectives, we call him "high" on task orientation.

following is a brief and easy to understand description of all types of leaders!

• Authoritarian — strong on tasks, weak on people skills
• Country Club — strong on people skills, weak on tasks
• Impoverished — weak on tasks, weak on people skills
• Team Leader — strong on tasks, strong on people skills
