Fred Fiedler’s Contingency Model of leadership evaluates situational favorableness using three dimensions. Which of the following is NOT one of these dimensions?

Explanation

• Fiedler’s Contingency Theory states that leadership effectiveness depends on matching a leader’s fixed orientation to situational favorableness.
• Situational favorableness is measured by: 1) Leader-Member Relations, 2) Task Structure, and 3) Position Power.
• Fiedler measured leader orientation using the Least Preferred Coworker (LPC) scale, asserting that leadership style remains relatively fixed.
