I do not believe there are branch-dependent leadership styles. There is only the individual leader, and those that individual leads. People respond to different leadership styles, differently – and the Army revolves around people. A good leader will adapt their style to motivate those he or she leads to carry out whatever tasks or missions are necessary, regardless of branch. Every person has their own personal leadership style, and that is the style that should be used in all instances. For a person to pretend to be something, or someone they are not is a recipe for failure.

One has to understand their own style of leadership, help their subordinates understand it, and then adapt it to the situation.
