Tough at the Top: Business Management Styles

To achieve their business objectives, managers must blend their skill and experience with one or more management styles in order to communicate their plans and concerns with their staffs. This attention-grabbing program from Australia goes over the top to dramatize five basic business management styles: autocratic, persuasive, consultative, participative, and laissez-faire. After each skit, the preceding situation is analyzed and the likely outcomes are considered. On-screen lists of style characteristics and the advantages and disadvantages that go along with them reinforce the learning experience. (13 minutes)
