BLAKE AND MOUTON’S ADMINISTRATIVE GRID

• Two fundamental aspects of exercise of leadership – concern for institutional performance and concern for people

• When put on two sides of a grid, it results in 81 possible combinations

• Five Major Grid Styles

o 1,1: (Impoverished) Caretaker Administration, low people and institutional performance concern

• Exertion of minimum effort to get required work done is appropriate to sustain university membership

o 9,1: (Authoritarian) Authority-Obedience Administration, low people, and high institutional performance

• Efficiency in operations results from arranging conditions of work in such a way that human elements interfere to a minimum degree

o The assumptions that underlie our conduct remain outside our awareness. As a result we are sometimes as blind about why we do things as others are baffled in trying to explain our actions from their vantage point

o Ways to test assumptions on which they act

• Test their assumptions
