Our research focuses on two main aspects of Leadership styles i.e. Task oriented Leadership and People oriented Leadership. Task oriented Leadership places Primary emphasis on completing the Task and People oriented Leadership emphasizes on maintaining good Interpersonal relationships. These two types correspond to task performance and group maintenance leader behaviors.
