Answer 1

The answer would be Consultative Decision Making.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four types of decision making styles. Autocratic, with high leader power and low involvement of others. Consultative, with high leader power and high involvement of others. Delegating, with Low leader and others involvement. Fourth is Team, with high others involvement and low leader involvement.

In this type of scenario, the leader has to make a decision, so his power is high, and he needs the suggestions of the team members involved in the process, that means high involvement of team members as well. So Consultative Decision Making would be best in this type of decision making.
