These types of leadership are contributory to the success and development of the organization.

Further, Krietner and Kinicki (2005:249) expressed that leadership is a process of social influence where leader joins voluntary participation from subordinates to reach a goal. This means that leadership has a big influence to manage subordinates (employees) to reach mission and vision of a unit or an organization.
Leadership style is used by a leader in interacting with subordinates. Thoha (2007) explained that leadership style is a way by which a chairman uses in influencing employees so that they work well to reach a purpose. Leadership style is also a behavior or an action of leader in carrying out management work (Soekarjo, 2010). While Kartono (2002:62) said that leadership style is a leadership way in guiding his subordinates to do something. From these experts' explanation, it can be concluded that leadership style is the nature and behavior of a leader in guiding and influencing his employees to do work well. There are four leadership styles used by leaders to influence employees such as: 1) Directive leadership -the leader provides specific advice to group and establishes key rules; 2) Supportive leadership -the employee or group has a good relationship with the leader and shows sensitivity to the needs of members; 3) Participative leadership -the leader makes a decision on consultation with group members and shares information with group; and lastly 4) Leadership oriented -the leader faces members on challenge goals and pushes high performance and shows confidence in group's ability (Robbin. 2007).
