As I follow democratic leadership style I delegate and encourage the participation in the works. I share the decision-making abilities with group members by promoting the interests of the group members and by practicing social equality. I always ask for suggestions and give advice to my workers.

And in the case of change I follow transformational style of leadership. Transformational leadership is based on more than the compliance of followers. It involves shifts in the beliefs, needs and values. I direct the group through communication and try to focus on the whole idea and the vision. I motivate the subordinates to work more effectively and efficiently.
