Charlotte runs her mother's nursery. She has a group of gardeners working for her. While she makes sure that they put undivided effort into their work, she occasionally allows them to bring their children to work. The gardeners perform their tasks effectively and also feel motivated at work. In the context of the Blake/Mouton leadership grid, which of the following leadership styles is Charlotte using in this scenario?

A) The middle-of-the-road style
B) The country club style
C) The authority-compliance style
D) The impoverished style

Answer 1

A) The middle-of-the-road Style.
