Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

The trait approach would disagree claiming that effective leadership is a function of personality characteristics and cannot be taught. Behavioral theory claims that successful leaders possess two dimensions, consideration, and initiating structure, which can be taught. Merely having the requisite traits doesnt mean that the person will automatically become a successful leader. Alternatively, someone without the right stuff cannot be trained to be a successful leader. Contingency theory examines the interaction between traits, behaviors, followers, and the situation.
