The Leadership Styles That Work Best In A Group Aimed At Discipleship

THE LEADERSHIP STYLES THAT WORK BEST IN A GROUP AIMED AT DISCIPLESHIP

There are four basic leadership styles that impact the way you conduct a group:

Autocratic: Content-oriented, no discussion, lecture style; the leader dominates the group and there is little to no discussion

Authoritarian: Content-oriented, interactive; the leader controls the direction of the group and the discussion

Democratic: Discussion-oriented, lots of sharing; the leader operates as a guide or facilitator of the group and the discussion

Laissez-Faire: Discussion-oriented, “anything goes”; the leader maintains minimum control of the group and the discussion

Some things to keep in mind:

One leadership style isn’t better than another; however, one style may be more optimum than another in a particular setting.

You will naturally prefer one leadership style over another. However, you may need to adjust your leadership style to better serve a group or depending on the setting.

The leadership styles that work best within the framework of a discipleship-oriented group are the authoritarian and democratic leadership styles.

The Well ministry was an answer to prayer in understanding that we are ONE BODY in spite of our denominational differences and that our common ground is Jesus Christ, who maintains our unity.

“Through the teachings, trainings, Bible studies, and the community at The Well, I have learned more about who God is and my purpose within His mission, which is to bring His Kingdom to earth. I have learned what biblical discipleship is about, how to speak the Gospel, and better understand my role as the helpmate in my marriage.”
