Situational Leadership...
Situational leadership theories presume that different leadership styles are better in different situations, and that leaders must be flexible enough to adapt their style to the situation they are in.
Perhaps the most important example is Paul Hersey and Kenneth H. Blanchard's "life-cycle" theory, which posits that leadership style should depend on the "maturity" (i.e., self motivation and initiative) of subordinates.
Relatively "immature" subordinates require autocratic leadership; subordinates intermediate in maturity do best with a more democratic approach, and very "mature" subordinates do not need any explicit leadership at all.

At one time, these same leaders trusted God wholly, and he spoke to them. But at some point, they abandoned their servant hood for politics. And now, instead of ministering, they compete for power, prestige and numbers. Sadly, their ministry has become a faded memory of what God once accomplished in their midst, in his power and in truth.
Now I'm about to do it again. You're just like Shiloh. You've allowed sin and corruption in my house. You've become so degenerate in your ways, you no longer represent me. Look around: who is standing in the gap? Who is crying out with a repentant heart? I see apathy and compromise. My Word clearly warns that I lifted my presence from Shiloh. And now I'm going to walk away from you. I'm about to remove my glory from your midst."
RIDE ON MY Beloved Friend.
