Answer 1

The role of a supportive leader in the company is not only to delegate the task but to support their employees to maintain interpersonal relationships within the organization. The supportive leaders are trying to build a personal relationship with their employees to maintain the good vibes and the effective working environment in the organization. The leaders communicate with their team members with the clear vision of the future prospects and the knowledge to overcome the challenges.
Bill Gates would be the best example of this category who has achieved to build the best relationship with his employees by following the supportive leadership style. Being a leader he constantly encourage his employees with the innovations and the creativity to show for the improvisation of the software functions for Microsoft. He organizes the development meetings on a regular basis where he interrupts his colleagues by asking to resolve of some imaginary challenges. Like other successful leaders he also relies on the employees in his organization. The authoritarian style of his leadership is very effective when quick decisions are to be taken.
