The Laissez-faire leader impacts on workers autonomy

By Mauro Libi.- Laissez-faire is a French expression that can be translated to "let’s do it" or "let it go". In the business field, leadership is used to define leaders who give an autonomy high level to the members of their team. It is a very efficient leadership style in teams composed of members with a great professional experience and an autonomy high level.

Leader has a passive role, since the workers or the group are those who have the power.

Collaborators have operational and decision-making independence, as leaders on workers to set goals, and most employees can make important decisions. It doesn’t judge or value the contributions of its employees and that they have total freedom and they will have the support of the leader only, if they ask for it. This type of leadership can work when the people who are part of our company have a certain age, a perfect knowledge of the operation of the business and its functions.

A basic characteristic of leadership is laissez-faire. It is that employees are not responsible for making their own decisions and even the leader can be influenced by their opinions or personal interests. Their participation in implementing new work techniques is limited and only provides more information about the group of applicants, for example, in the development of a successful project.

On the other hand, one of the risks that companies can face with this type of leadership is, that it adopts a paternalistic attitude of a permissive nature, also their lack of evaluation and opinion about the contributions of their collaborators that can be leaded to the objectives being dispersed at the same time as the tasks. Faced with this situation, if there is no other model of influential leadership, the group is expected to be at risk of drifting.

It imposes nothing and its intervention is very scarce. This leadership model openly let every person do the responsibilities that they do at their own discretion. Employees have a high degree of independence to work and are free to apply their own methodologies to achieve success.

Social responsibility represents benefits for the society where the organizations are located, but for the companies too , since their effects are also felt in profitability.Just as you read it, it is proven that the risk of affecting the profitability of companies and enterprises grows when there is no specific application of responsibility with the organization's environment, nor transparency and business ethics.
