Abstract

Situational leadership is a leadership model that can be adapted to the conditions and level of readiness of employees in the face of change. In organizations operating in dynamic environments, leaders need to adopt flexible and adaptive leadership styles to effectively manage change. This leadership style has great potential in reducing resistance to change, increasing employee engagement, and developing more productive and collaborative teams. Situational leadership facilitates better communication, supports individual development, and ensures that employees feel involved in the change process that is taking place. Organizations need to train leaders to understand the needs of their teams and adapt leadership styles to the situation at hand. Proper implementation of situational leadership styles can strengthen change management and create more adaptive and goal-oriented teams.
