Task and Maintenance Leadership • Distributed leadership • sharing of responsibilities for contributions that move a group forward • Task activities • various things members do that directly contribute to the performance of important group tasks • Maintenance activities • support the social and interpersonal relationships among group members
For example: • Greg Popovich (Coach in San Antonio Spurs) • NBA Championship is “4” • Playoff Appearances is “13” • Division Titles is “7”
Task activities • Example: New York Knicks • Exchange some better players • Research and understand competitive team • Knowing shortcoming and advantage • Get higher % to win • Maintenance activities • Support relationships needed • Work well together • Bad Example: Cavaliers • Lebron James left • From being one of the NBA's elite teams, to a bottom feeder
Avoid disruptive behaviors • Being overly aggressive toward other members • Withdrawing and refusing to cooperate with others • Horsing around when there is work to be done • Using the group as a forum for self-confession • Talking too much about irrelevant matters • Trying to compete for attention and recognition
