Abstract
The development of the relationship between employer and employee
is an important aspect of management, i. e. management behaviour
and management style play an important role with regard to
the employee as a critical factor for success. Increasing average
sizes of agricultural enterprises and numbers of employees and the
missing hierarchical structures create the need for additional motivation
opportunities. In the agricultural sector the quality performance
of labour activities is difficult to control, therefore, it becomes
even more important to discuss management behaviour and management
styles.
Management styles are mainly described theoretically in the literature
but rarely for agricultural enterprises. An empirical study
demonstrates that in practice agricultural entrepreneurs are aware
of numerous management styles. Although various standard management
styles are known to the managers, the successful manager
quickly adapts his individual management style to the current situation.
