Leadership style sometimes must change with the readiness level of the employees. Which of the following employee readiness level scenarios would be best suited for adopting a structuring and telling leadership style?
• Situational leadership and how leadership style changes with employee readiness • Difference between ability (skill) and willingness/confidence (motivation) • When a leader needs to use high task / low relationship behavior (structuring and telling)
• For which option does the employee MOST need clear direction on what to do and how to do it, rather than support or delegation? • In which scenario is close supervision and step‑by‑step instruction more important than motivation or encouragement? • Which readiness level reflects employees who cannot yet do the job on their own and also are not yet confident or motivated?
• Identify which choices describe employees as unable (skill gap) versus able (have the skills). • Identify which choices describe employees as unwilling or insecure versus willing or confident. • Match structuring and telling with a situation of low competence and low readiness, where the leader must be very directive.
