In a democratic management setting, employees of all levels are allowed to participate in the decision-making process and exchange ideas, recommendations and opinions freely. This type of management will make employees feel valued having had their voices heard. It will also motivate employees always to engage on important issues. By encouraging input of ideas, the manager is also employees to tap into their problem-solving skills, which eventually help with their tasks. The negative aspect of this management style is that it is liable to fairness issues like favouritism.
