Albrecht & Associates Model Concept

Albrecht & Associates Model is a leadership evaluation model proposed by Albrecht & Associates, North American consultant specialized in the effectiveness improvement through organizational development. The model bases on the assumption that the leadership style depends from four factors: share of goals, team work, independence (or delegation level) and reward. This model uses a mold (Leadership Factors Mold) where is summarized a group of common behaviors for each factor, placing them between the reduced significance and high significance level.

Factors	Significance given
	Reduced	Correct	High
Share of goals	Imposes work	Shares ideas and sets goals	Depends from the subordinates to define tasks
Gives significance to team work	There are no group meetings	Problem resolution, goals definition and tasks attribution are made in group	Are performed too many group meetings
Allows independence	Gives little freedom and responsibility to the	Give freedom to the subordinates within pre established limits	The leader doesn’t direct
Offers rewards	Criticizes and rarely compliments	Recognizes and demands good work	Offers rewards to be accepted and not to reward good performance
