CLEP Management

Answer: B - The University of Michigan study found that employee-centered leadership was more effective than job-centered leadership.

Key Takeaway: Employee-centered leadership is a leadership style where the leader or manager focuses on the employee and their needs instead of focusing solely on the job itself. By focusing on the employee and enabling them to become productive, the study found that the employees were actually more productive than if the leader had focused primarily on the job itself (i.e. meetings, schedules, overall efficiency ratings, etc.)
