mind and perceive favoritism which can decrease their commitment towards the task which
is not good at that time you are need to perform such an action behavior to ensue to all that
for you all the team is equalent and all the followers are equaling in other word that you need
to perceive the situation and adopt situational approach .. n if you perform situational
approach at that time when needed then you can avoid such type of impressions being able
to adaptable to followers need

situational approach may effected by the number of followers because at different situation
different followers demand different leadership so at that time by the need of the followers
situational approach could be effected at the same time.
