False

Explanation:

There are 3 main decision making styles that most of us have regarding our normal day to day activities that includes our work and our personal lives, e. g. families and individual decisions. They are consumer, business, and personal decision making styles.

But managers, and specially true leaders have it a little more complicated. The four main decision making styles that apply to leaders are:

directive: type of autocratic leadership where the leader decides everything by himself/herself conceptual: look for different alternatives and analyze each one of them consultative: seek advice from colleagues and subordinates, but the leader makes the decision consensus: seek advice from others and decisions are made by the group

The second part of the question is true; this leadership styles vary across countries, occupations and job levels.
