In franchising, leadership is very important to ensure success. But what makes a good leader? There are many different styles of leadership, and some are more effective than others.

In this episode, Rick and Matt discuss the four types of leadership styles: abdicator, dominator, protector, and liberator.

They analyze how each style affects franchise operations and team dynamics.

It’s important to strike the right balance between challenging employees and providing them with the necessary support and resources to succeed.

This makes the "liberator" style, which combines high challenge with high support, the most effective approach for fostering a positive and productive work environment in a franchise.
