The two dimensional of leader behavior are people and task. If the leader hope to have the high profit, he need to focus on people and task. Because high concern for people, can motivation people work hard. And concern for task. It means that the leader need to use the scientific and effective management. Concern for people focuses on building up and maintaining healthy relationships. The leader concentrates on motivating and encouraging staff and promoting rust, support and cooperation within the organisation. Concern for task emphasizes leaders role in talking charge to plan, organise and control as employees or subordinates do their job. The focus is on accomplishing the task or jobs. Ohio state studies identified two dimensions of leader behavior as: initiating structure(concern for task) and consideration(concern for people). The result is that leaders with both high initiating structure and high consideration generally achieved high work performance and staff satisfaction. As for university of Michigan Studies, it also identified two dimensions of leader behavior as: employee oriented(concern for people) and production oriented(concern for task). The findings of the studies reveal that employee oriented leaders more possibly lead to high group productivity and high job satisfaction. Brian Tang doesnt concentrates on motivating and encouraging staff and promoting trust, support and cooperation. He formulate the policy limited the staff creating ideas and he never care about their ideas and feelings in the workplace. So he is the low concern for people. But Sharon not only pay attention to the task but also pay attention to people. Sharon provide the flexible working condition for staffs and she give the power of decision for staffs. So Sharon s management effective are better than Brian Tangs management effective. So Brian Tang need to provide the flexible working condition for staffs and give the power of making decisions in working time for staffs. 4.Contingency Theories of LeadershipThe Fiedler contingency model is that determines leadership style by measuring responses to pairs of contrasting adjectives. The first step is that model is to identify a persons leadership style. High score is a relationship-oriented leadership style. And low score is that a task-oriented leadership style. Brian Tang is belong to the low-score leadership style. He doesnt provide the flexible working conditions for staffs and doesnt care about the staffs idea. As for Sharon, she belong to the high-score. She provide the flexible working conditions, even though the designer can work at home. And she give the power of making decisions in work time for designers. The second step is to evaluate and define the work situation. It divide into three parts: first is the leader-member relations, second is task structure and third is position power. Leader-member relation is the amount of trust, respect and confidence followers have in their leaders. Task structure is the degree, to which the job is structure or procedurised. As for position power, it means the degree of influence a leader has over power variables such as promotion, salary increase, hiring, firing and discipline. In Tangs Clothing Ltd, leader-member relations are not very good. Because Brian Tang pay attention to the task structure and he doesnt care about the staffs in the work time. He formulate the policy that all new designs should be approve by him before put into production. This policy limit the designers creating and influence the staffs satisfaction for the company. As for power, Brian Tang have the own power, he doesnt give the power for the staffs that they can make the decisions for their job. But on the contrary, Sharon s company have the great relationship between leader and staffs. Sharon provide the flexible working condition for staffs and she give the power of decision for staffs. The third step is to match the leadership style with the work situation. So Brian Tangs leadership style is poor leader-member relations, high task structure and weak position power. And Sharon is good leader-member relations, high task structure and strong position power. Brian Tang need to provide the flexible working condition for staffs and give them the power to make decision for their job, the most important is he should be care about his staffs. 5 Improving LeadershipExploitive authoritative divide into three parts: management uses fear and threats, communication is top down with most decisions taken at the top and superiors and subordinates are distant.In this type of management system, the job of employees is to abide by the decisions made by managers and those with a higher status than them in the organisation. And the subordinates do not participate in the decision making. The organisation is concerned simply about completing the work and there is no teamwork involved. In Tangs Clothing Ltd, Brian Tang doesnt give the power of making decision for the staffs. And he formulate the policy that all new designs should be approve by him before put into production, this policy limit the designers create design and ideas. So the designers doesnt like to work. So Brian Tangs exploitive authoritative is Theory X, it means negative. Theory X have many characteristics such as no trust and confidence in staff, may get results in certain situations and usually creates dissatisfaction and poor quality and quantity. So Brian Tang need to give the power of making decision for the staffs. And according to the market, the designers will create the right and fashion products for customers. So the Tangs will have high revenue.As for tight control and loose control, Handy proposed a spectrum, ranging from tight to loose management. Handy identified three basic variables that affect the effectiveness of a particular leadership style, tight of loose control style.Tight control leaders are described as a person who has a preference for autocratic style with low estimation of followers abilities and high estimation of his or her own. Such leaders have a low tolerance of uncertainty.Loose control leaders are described as a person who has a preference for democratic style with high trust and confidence in followers abilities. Such leaders dislike stress and accept reasonable risk and uncertainty.Brian Tang is the tight control leaders. He doesnt trust his staffs and provide the flexible working conditions for them. Brian Tang doesnt encourage teamwork and communication. So the staffs dislike uncertainty in work, tends to obey or accept authority and consider work as trivial. So Brian Tang need to trust his staff, provide the flexible working condition and encourage communication and teamwork.ConclusionThis report analysis that the management how to improve the leadership.
