Interesting question.
Ther are many leadership and management models and theories (see www.rapidbi.com/created/managementmodels.HTML )
Indeed one of the problems of these and many other models is that they are appled to a situation without thought for the prevailing or existing styles and culture. This is one of the main reasons why change iniatives in business fail (www.rapidbi.com/created/whychangemanagementfailstodeliver.HTML or www.rapidbi.com/created/whybusinessimprovementfailstodeliver.HTML )
Most management models and theories were developed to help managers in a given situation or context to solve a set of problems. The context has changed.
As managers and consultants using such tools we need to take this into account. There is no perfect model - it is about selecting the right model for the right job at the right time.
A good consultant when working with a company will recognise the strengths and weaknesses in individuals and build the strategy around these.
Occasionally it is time to let some people go because they no-longer fit or support the direction (culturally & style) that is required for future sucess. Managers should not feel rejected if this happens as there will always be a more appropriate role for them in another organization.
Hope this helps your thinking
