Question

"what is the main function of leaders under the adaptive leadership approach? what are the differences of this approach from those we have studied in previous chapters"

Answer 1

The main functions of leaders in this approach is that they are primarily focusing on how to get their team to adapt to change. Leaders are supposed to prime their subordinates (team leads, managers, employees) for intense changes and prep them on how they should handle such changes. This method or approach to leadership is different because the leader is supposed to actually encourage adaptation by the employees.
