This short transcript excerpt (by Cameron Herold) lists three leadership styles that stunt team growth: (1) autocratic/dictatorial "my way or the highway" leadership; (2) the distant corner-office, status-symbol leader; and (3) the idea-hoarding leader who hands down plans instead of soliciting the team's ideas. Herold emphasizes that leaders' job is to grow team members' skills and confidence.

Three leadership styles that are a hard. No. 1 is the kind of autocratic, dictatorial, like, do it, you know, the my way or the highway. Another one is that corner office, you know, where you sit in a big corner office with the wood desk and the brass rails and I guess, you know, wearing the suit and tie and that real power. And then the other one would be the leader who's always giving the ideas and giving the plan instead of asking the team what their ideas are and asking the team what their plan is. Because our job as leaders is to grow people. It's to grow their skills and to grow their confidence.
