    Jordan is exhibiting an Autocratic leadership style.

    Explanation:

    Autocratic leadership is a management style in which one person is responsible for making all the decisions and takes very little inputs from other group members. Autocratic leaders make choices or decisions based on what they believe and do not involve the suggestions or advice of his employees. The autocratic leadership style is also known as authoritarian, directive or monothetic style.

    Most times, the autocratic leadership style can be negative as the group members may feel insecure and afraid of leader's authority. Since the autocratic leader takes a decision on his own with little or no input from the subordinates, may demoralize the group members, as they are not able to contribute their ideas and use their expertise or knowledge in certain situations.
