    Section A

    Which leadership model explicitly describes balancing these three specific needs?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Blake and Mouton's Managerial Grid

    B.

    Adair's Action-Centred Leadership

    C.

    Fiedler's Contingency Model

    D.

    Tuckman's Team Stages

    How to approach this question

    Identify the three elements: Task (save victim), Team (crew working together), Individual (diver coping). This triad is the core of Adair's model.

    Full Answer

    B.Adair's Action-Centred Leadership✓ Correct
    John Adair's Action-Centred Leadership model is represented by three overlapping circles: Achieving the Task, Building and Maintaining the Team, and Developing the Individual. Effective leaders must balance all three.

    Common mistakes

    Choosing Blake and Mouton because it also deals with tasks and people, but it lacks the distinct 'Team vs Individual' split.
