It's important to remember that projects are temporary and involve uncertainties, therefore, one size does not fit all: Project Managers must be aware of a number of Leadership Theories, and must develop their abilities to identify and employ the best leadership style for the project or circumstances. The project type, sector, situation, and lifecycle will all affect the leadership style, which is most appropriate to use.

Thanks for your inputs, how do you answer the famous debatable question " are leaders made or born? For me I think part of leadership is born with the person and either modeled further or lost due to many factors that affect both results such as cultural awareness, working environment , social environment, etc...

I use different stiles depending on the project, the team, the stakeholders, the sponsor and the stage. I need to combine different ones to success. I need to say that I do not agree that the alignment with the organization leadeership style has been the best decision, some times as a PM you need to challenge the organization as well
