Tannenbaum and Schmidt's [1985 , updated 1973) Continuum of Leadership Behaviour theory mainly suggests: i. Boss-centred leadership ii. Subordinate-centred leadership iii. A continuum of possible leadership behaviour available to a manager along which many leadership styles can be placed iv. A continuum of decisions that leaders or subordinates can make A. ii and iii only B. iand ii only C. iand iii only D. i,ii,iii and iv B A C D

Answer 1

C. i and iii only

Answer 2

Tannenbaum and Schmidt's Continuum of Leadership Behaviour is a theory that provides different styles of leadership, ranging from autocratic (boss-centered) to democratic (subordinate-centered), and the extent to which subordinates are involved in decision making. Thus, options i, ii, iii can fall under this theory. However, it does not involve a continuum of decisions that leaders or subordinates can make but rather a continuum of leadership styles that a manager can adopt, which differentiates where the leader is along a continuum depending on the amount of freedom given to the team. Hence, the answer involves i, ii, and iii only as they correctly represent aspects of Tannenbaum and Schmidt's theory, but does not include iv, because the theory does not cover decisions themselves.
