on autocratic leadership would be required within a higher power
00:05 - 00:08
distance culture because the employees need someone to justify the
00:08 - 00:10
power gap and begin to take charge.
00:10 - 00:16
In terms of running the business, they would order the
00:16 - 00:19
staff to do exactly what they wanted, signifying the difference
00:19 - 00:21
in power from the bottom ranks of the business to

distance will not have much control over their employees on.
00:56 - 00:59
Therefore, they could choose a Lassie faire style of leadership
00:59 - 01:02
because the manager already has very little to almost no
01:03 - 01:03
control over their staff.
01:06 - 01:08
