Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

The four leadership behaviors according to House's path-goal theory are directive, supportive, participative, and achievement oriented. The directive leader establishes expectations for followers, determines targets to attain, organizes tasks, sets deadlines and schedules, and closely monitors progress. The supportive leader is warm and friendly and shows concern about the problems and needs of subordinates. The participative leader actively elicits subordinates' input and opinions and uses them to make decisions that affect the group. The achievement-oriented leader is primarily concerned with motivating people by setting challenging goals, coaching subordinates to perform at their highest level, and rewarding those who meet or exceed their targets.
