      - Laissez-faire leaders do the best leading,they're extremely permissive and mostly leave the group to function on its own.This means lots of freedom,but it's the least effective style at promoting group solidarity and least effective in time of crisis.
      - Authoritarian leaders lead by giving orders and setting down rules which they expect the group to follow.Such a leader earns respect and can be effective in a crisis,but at the expense of affection from group members.
