The Vroom–Yetton contingency model is a situational leadership theory of industrial and organizational psychology developed by Victor Vroom, in collaboration with Philip Yetton (1973) and later with Arthur Jago (1988).

A high LPC score suggests that the leader has a "human relations orientation", while a low LPC score indicates a "task orientation".
