peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1| deserteurschap delegative / laissez-faire leadership Explanation: Check with the client/author for a missing "niet" if what comes after the colon is defining the term per se. => "alles in het werk stellen om de lopende gang van zaken [niet] te verstoren." Otherwise, you'll have to look into alternative meanings for "verstoren" in its transitive sense, like "revive" / "restore" (Middle Dutch derivative). Ex 1: The leadership style is a bit laissez-faire: bending over backwards to avoid disrupting the status quo. Ex 2: The approach resembles a delegative leadership style... Re: your follow-up question, "heeft hier veel weg van" means "resembles" (or, if you want to go 5 for 5: "bears a striking resemblance to").

| Reference: refs (based on Bryan's "deserter leadership style") Reference information: seems this is a thing. see e.g.: ***************************** "LEADERSHIP STYLES OVERVIEW Despite the common fundamentals that you can follow to enhance your leadership skills, each individual should also have their own leadership style. This will be dependent on your personality and the situation you are in. Some would describe their style as ‘autocratic’, MBWA ('management by walking about'), 'participative', 'deserter' or 'detached'. These work well in some situations, and we are going to look at how different styles might be appropriate for your organisation. " (https://www.accipio.com/eleadership/mod/wiki/view.php?id=165... ) ***************************** "These four management styles have some similarities to those which may be derived from the Blake’s grid theory: • Deserter: 1 1 • Missionary: 5.1 • Autocrat: 1.9 • Compromiser: 5.5 […] Figure 1.4: Reddin ’s grid — the less effective matrix In the less effective matrix shown in Figure 1.4, the four styles are: deserter, missionary, autocrat and compromiser. 1. Deserter These managers often display lack of interest in both task and relationships with people, and are ineffective not only because of their lack of interest but also because of their effect on morale. They may not only desert, but may also hinder the performance of others by withholding information. 2.

This is essentially a hand-off or laisser-faire approach : avoidance of any involvement or intervention which would upset the status; assuming a neutral attitude toward what is going on during the day; looking the other way to avoid enforcing rules; keeping out of the way of both supervisors and subordinates; avoidance of change and planning. The activities undertaken (or initiated) by managers who use this approach tend to be defensive in nature. People who achieve high scores may be adverse to managerial tasks or may have begun to lose interest in such tasks. This does not necessarily mean they are bad managers; they just try to maintain the status quo and avoid “rocking the boat”." (https://leadershipchamps.wordpress.com/2008/03/06/knowing-sw... ) |
