ii
- situational control - measured by:
a) leader-member relation
*
Situation control is greatest when leader-member
relation is good. Task is highly structured and the leader has substantial position power.

berkongsi idea, mesra, bantu
7. Hubungan pemimpin – pengikut

2. Prestasi berkumpulan kakitangan juga bergantung

Penentu situasi utama berkaitan kejelasan

struktur tugas dan role formalization (rules and
regulation)
3.
Kemahiran melaksanakan tugas berbeza bagi
setiap kakitangan. Kemahiran masakini akan
mempengaruhi prestasi kumpulan. Tahap
kemahiran subordinat jua tertakluk kpd proses
