KN: Employees may be at different stages of development and maturity in their roles, requiring different levels of guidance and support from their manager.

[KN]: managers might have to change their management styles depending upon autocratic and democratic employees
[AN]: both , democratic and autocratic employees can not be treated in the same manner.
[AN+]: the autocratic employees need to be monitored whereas democratic employees are innovative and innovative employees do not like supervision
[AN+]: democratic employees like accommodate their work according to their level of comfort whereas this option can not be given to autocratic employees
[AN+]: managers would have to deal each employee according to their nature .

[Hamnah Naz]

[KN] Adapting to the needs of employees [AN] Employees are unique and may respond differently to different management styles. [AN+] This means that some employees may work better under a more autonomous leadership style, while others may require more guidance and supervision. [AN+] Therefore, through different management approach, a manager can cater to the individual needs and preferences of their team members. [AN+] This may lead to increased motivation and productivity as workers may feel that the way in which the work the best is valued and recognized by the organisation.

[KN]: managers might need to change their management style according to the requirement of the employees
[AN]: some employees might need supervision but some might prefer feedbacks and conversations with the managers
[AN+]: thus, consulting them the way would reduce the efficiency on one of the two employee departments
[AN+]: so it is necessary for the managers to be flexible in order to compensate with the employees
[AN+]: it would help reduce the labour turnover as workers would be satisfied by their tasks and how they are being supervised and managed

[Zubiah gull]

(kn)managers might have to adopt different styles of management due to different mindsets and skills of the employees.
(An) different employees cannot be treated in the same manner.
(An+) autocratic leaders take all decisions whereas democratic leaders encourage participation in decision making.
(An+)autocratic workers are given only limited information about the business whereas democratic workers are given information about the business to allow full involvement.
(An+)therefore different workers are dealt in different different ways and so more amount of output is produced, number of employees will also be increased.

[Aleezay Naseem]

KN: a manager needs to adopt different management styles to deal with uncertainty in business
AN: a democratic leader has to change to another leadership style because of new challenges that arise
AN+ the employees still need a supervisor regardless of them being the one taking decisions to deal with difficult issues
AN+ so in order to find quick solutions to problems managers sometimes have to switch to autocracy ,laissez faire or paternalistic leadership style or the opposite in other situations
AN+ when employees are aware of this they wont feel unappreciated but valued
