The disadvantages of the three leadership styles are the following:

1. Laissez faire: the lack of control and supervision of this style can lead the team to do not achieve its goal efficiently. The project can face delays, re-process, and overload on some members of the team.

2. Authoritarian: the supervision can bring the team just to do what is needed to do and do not overcome or surpass the expectations of the projects. This also can make an stresful environment in which the team does not feel free and motivated to enhance and give more of what is required by the leader.

3. Democratic or participative: because this kind of leadership brings autonomy and initiative to the team, can happen that the leader do not guide efficiently the team to achieve a goal, so in this case this kind of leadership will requires a high-skilled leader. Or it also can happen that all the ideas of the team delays somehow the project and it is loosed lot of time to achieve an agreement on the path to follow.
