ITS NOT ABOUT THE WEEKS GAME ,,,,,   ITS ABOUT HOW YOU WANT TO ESTABLISH YOURSELF AS A LEADER   & MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR WILL BE HOW PEOPLE WILL RESPOND TO YOU.............   THEN YOU CAN DETERMINE YOUR STYLE TO MOVE FORWARD ................................. 

MY CHOICE WILL BE TO FACILITATE THEM FOR THE OBJECTIVES ............ GOOD DAY

It really depends on the Leadership Style. In this particular case, I would vote for Option B (Directive) since, it is about first2 weeks, later I would coach, support and facilitate

It depends on the team members, but one way or the other you need to be directive, that's your position. But as soon as possible change it into a coaching, supporting and facilitating way.
