An authoritarian leader exhibits close control over the workforce and motivates individuals through application of strictly enforced rules, regulations and penalties. His word is final and employees are not expected to question the direction they have been given. It is most effectively deployed in situations where control is essential and there is little room for error, such as the military. It can also be used effectively in situations where staff are inexperienced and require close monitoring until they become familiar with their work.
The leader dictates policies and procedures, decides what goals are to be achieved, and directs and controls all activities without any meaningful participation by the subordinates. He has full control of the team and a vision in mind and must be able to effectively motivate his group to finish the task. The group is expected to complete the tasks under very close supervision while unlimited authority is granted to the leader. Subordinate's responses to the orders given are either punished or rewarded.
