Answer:

Autocratic leadership style.

Explanation:

In autocratic leadership, the leader is the center of all attentions and decisions, and as such centralizes power itself and does not allow followers to participate in almost anything. With a “boss” profile, this manager takes his employees on short reins, vehemently demanding results, pressing, disregarding their suggestions and not allowing them to intervene or state their actions. Cynthia is using that kind of leadership.

These days we still see this kind of leadership in many companies, and we can say without fail that they are primarily responsible for their turnover and the loss of great professional talent. This is because their behavior always causes tension and discontent among the team, promotes a harsh and stressful environment, which demotivates employees and makes them want to remain under the management of the autocratic leader.
