Question

Christine is president of her improvisation comedy troupe. when making decisions about booking gigs, rehearsal spaces, and call-times, christine leaves the troupe to decide for themselves. christine is a(n) _____ leader.
a. authoritarian
b. democratic
c. laissez-faire
d. republican

Answer 1

Choice (c) is most correct. Having a laissez-faire attitude toward leadership holds that the person is "hands-off" and does not typically make decisions for the group. The leader allows consensus to naturally form and goes with those decisions. This leads to the group typically doing what is in the best interest of all members.
