Leadership Styles Guided Notes

Enhance your high school leadership curriculum with this engaging and interactive guided notes packet that introduces students to six popular leadership styles: autocratic, democratic, laissez-faire, transactional, transformational, and servant leadership.

Each leadership style features six colorful slides that contain

• definitions, synonyms for the leadership style, and famous leaders who embody each style

• benefits and drawbacks of each leadership style

• blank slides for annotating on a projector screen or interactive whiteboard

• sample student answers

Each blank notes handout has places for students to copy notes and work together or individually to critically apply information about the leadership style, as well as explore how different leadership styles would tackle the same two scenarios.

The .pdf (both the presentation and the handouts) are not editable.

Your download includes the following files:

• 12 handouts (2 per leadership style)
• 36 slides (6 per leadership style)
• 2 pages of teacher instructions

Each leadership style should take approximately 40-60 minutes, allowing time for presentation, student note-taking, and application of each concept.
