What does the Blake mouton grid represent?

This diagram refers to the management styles, in accordance to the concern for task compared to concern for people. Therefore this refers to whether the manager is task orientated, if the work is more important that employee happiness, only concerned with results, or whether they are employee orientated, which means they are concerned with employee turnover, believing that happy employees will be more productive. The different styles on the grid are: Impoverished style 1.1, country club style 9.1, task management 1,9, team management 9,9 and middle of the road 5,5.
