Here is your answer and it's a bit longer:
Autocratic, Democratic and Laissez-Faire are styles of leadership which differ and have different effects on the workers in the business. Each of these leadership styles has their own advantages and disadvantages.
Autocratic
Autocratic leaders lead with an iron fist, one-way style communication. Authoritarian leaders, also referred to as autocratic leaders, are characterized as domineering. Authoritarian leaders make policies and decide appropriate division of labor from afar. They tend to be distant and aloof from their group. Authoritarian leadership is gained through punishment, threat, demands, orders, rules, and regulations. The functions of authoritarian leadership include unilateral rule-making, task-assignment, and problem solving while the roles of authoritarian followers include adhering to the leader's instructions without question or comment. Authoritarian leadership is appropriate in settings with a constant stream of new employees, limited decision-making time or resources, and the need for large-scale coordination with other groups and organizations. Authoritarian leadership is not suited to environments in which members desire to share their opinions and participate in decision-making processes. Critics of authoritarian leadership argue that the leadership style leads to high member dissatisfaction, turn-over, and absenteeism. Autocratic leaders will tell each worker what and how to do their work and feedback is not used. Leaders that use this style of leading distribute tasks according to how they want without others giving any suggestions. This allows for good-quality products and efficiency, but workers will feel controlled and may result in a worker turnover. Autocratic leaders will decide everything and orders everyone to do it according to the orders. This style of leadership will limit creativity and does not promote independent thinking but sometimes it results in better products. This form is best used in times with the shortest deadline or the leader is very smart in managing. This kind of leadership is referred to as dictatorship or bossy, and is not good as workers want to be independent in working.
Democratic
Democratic leadership is best described as consultative, as the leader respects others' opinions and accepts feedback. Democratic leaders are characterized by collective decision-making, camaraderie, active member or follower involvement, fair praise, and restrained criticism; they facilitate collective decision-making. Democratic leaders offer their followers choices and support. Democratic leadership, also referred to as participative leadership, reflects democratic principles and processes including inclusiveness, self-determination, and equal participation. That said, democratic leaders should not be confused with those who hold elected positions of power. Democratic leaders often lack formal position and power. For example, Mohandas Gandhi (1869–1948), an Indian peace activist and leader, was a democratic leader who lacked a formal position of power.
Laissez-Faire
Laissez-faire leadership is a type of leadership in which the manager gives a task to an individual or group and lets them decide the rest. Laissez-faire leaders are characterized as uninvolved with their followers and members; in fact, laissez-faire leadership is an absence of leadership style. Leaders of this style make no policies or group-related decisions. Instead, group members are responsible for all goals, decisions, and problem solving. Laissez-faire leaders have very little to no authority within their group organization. The functions of laissez-faire leadership include trusting their members or followers to make appropriate decisions and bringing in highly trained and reliable members into the group or organization. The roles of laissez-faire followers include self-monitoring, problem solving, and producing successful end products. Laissez-faire leaders are most successful in environments with highly trained and self-directed followers. Laissez-faire leadership is appropriate in particular settings such as science laboratories or established companies with long-term employees. Laissez-faire leadership is not suited to environments in which the members require feedback, direction, oversight, flexibility, or praise
the leader totally trusts their employees/team to perform the job themselves. He just concentrates on the intellectual/rational aspect of his work and does not focus on the management aspect of his work.

Lewin's framework defines three styles of leadership, particularly around decision-making; autocratic, democratic and laissez-faire. Autocratic leaders make all the decisions themselves. They do not consult their team, or let them make decisions.
