The teacher‐learner continuum
Abstract
Most supervisory and management trainers will already be familiar with the continuum approach to leadership which was introduced by W. Schmidt and R. Tannenbaum in their paper How to choose a Leadership Pattern (Harvard Business Review Volume 36 No. 2 1958). This describes the various ways in which a manager or leader, given accountability for a certain range of decision‐making in an organisation, can differentially use his own authority in combination with the contributions of his subordinates to get necessary decisions made for meeting the objectives of the organisation, while using an appropriate style of decision‐making which fits the forces within himself, his subordinates, and the situation being managed.
