LPC Theory
The
LPC theory
, developed by Fred Fiedler, was the first truly situational theory of lead-
ership.
16
Beginning with a combined trait and behavioral approach, Fiedler identified
two styles of leadership: task oriented (analogous to job-centered and initiating-
structure behaviors) and relationship oriented (similar to employee-centered and consid-
eration behaviors). He went beyond the earlier behavioral approaches by arguing that the
style of behavior is a reflection of the leader’s personality and that most personalities fall
into one of his two categories—task oriented or relationship oriented by nature.
Fiedler measures leadership style by means of a controversial questionnaire called the
LPC measure
. To use the measure, a manager or leader is asked to describe the specific
person with whom he or she is able to work least well—the LPC—by filling in a set of 16
scales anchored at each end by a positive or negative adjective. For example, 3 of the 16
scales are as follows:
does what and make sure they’re spending their
time where they can best utilize their talents.”
Finally, Hayhow also recommends giving people
some control over their jobs—that is, by letting peo-
ple decide how best to perform their jobs, they will
likely feel more commitment to their work and per-
form at a higher level.
Ex-Starbucks CEO Jim Donald makes a fairly sim-
ple recommendation: “Communicate, communicate,
communicate. Especially at a time of crisis,” he
advises, “make sure your message reaches all
levels, from the very lowest to the uppermost.” Kip
Tindell, who’s been CEO of the Container Store since
its founding in 1978, agrees. That’s why his man-
agers “run around like chickens relentlessly trying
to communicate everything to every single employee
at all times.” He admits that it’s an impossible task,
but he’s also convinced that the effort is more impor-
tant than ever in times of crisis. He also contends
that his company is in a better position to ride out
the economic storm “because we’re so dedicated
to the notion that communication and leadership
are the same thing.” At the very least, he says,
“we’re fortunate to be minus the paranoia that
goes with employees who feel they don’t know
what’s going on.”
