Answer: Kurt Lewin

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1939, psychologist Kurt Lewin and a team of researchers undertook an experiment to identify different leadership styles. In their study, they indentified three distinct types of leadership styles. Authortitarian (Autocratic leadership), Participative (Democratic leadership), and Delegative (Laissez-Faire leadership style). According the experiments, autocratic leadership is the most productive, followed by democratic leadership. Laissez-faire is the least productive of the three leadership styles.
