Fiedler contingency model (hereinafter, the Model) is a model that suggests that effective group performance depends on the proper match between a leader's orientation, whether he or she is task-oriented or people-oriented, and the degree to which the situation allows the leader to control and influence. The model (1) uses a least preferred coworker questionnaire to classify leaders, (2) assumes that leaders cannot be both task-oriented or people-oriented, and (3) suggests that people orientation is the best match to the situations with moderate control, while those leaders who are task-oriented best perform in situations with high or low control.
