Explanation:

Controversially Fiedler and Garcia suggest a leader cannot change their own approach and should instead change the situation to match their personality.

The Leader-Match Contingency Theory is a theory that tries to match leaders to the appropriate situations so that they may work most efficiently. It suggests that a leader’s effectiveness depends on how well the leader’s style fits the contest. The understanding of leader performance is essential to the understanding of situations in which they lead most effectively. This means that effective leadership relies on matching a leader’s style to the right setting. This theory came to be by studying the styles of many different leaders who worked in different contexts.
