Robert House and Path Goal Theory [Situational Leadership]
Path-Goal Theory is a contingency model of leadership. Like other situational leadership models, the approach you take to leading is dependent on the situation. In this case, you look at the people you are leading and the nature of the task.

📝 LESSON NOTES
Path Goal Theory was articulated by Robert House in 1971, and then refined with Gary Dessler, in a 1974 article.
Their work was rooted in Victor Vroom’s Expectancy Theory of motivation – Here's a link to that model: • What is Victor Vroom's Expectancy The...
House identified four leadership behaviors, that we can select based on two main situational factors:
Situational Factors
Team Member Factors
The four types of leadership behavior should be deployed at different times, based on the situational and team member factors;
1. Directive Leadership
2. Supportive Leadership
3. Participative Leadership
4. Achievement-oriented Leadership

📚 RECOMMENDED READING
There are a vast number of Leadership books - perhaps more than on any other management-related topic. And there is also a huge range represented in different lists of the best. This no-doubt reflects the different contexts for leadership.
So, any recommended reading list of leadership books must be particularly subjective. I have chosen those that made me think, and which are of particular value to managerial leaders: not sportspeople, military leaders, or CEOs. In no particular order:
