Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Bennis and Nanus (2003) are responsible for the phrase: Leaders are people who do the right thing; managers are people who do things right.

Answer to Question 2

A
Leadership involves influencing the attitudes, beliefs, behaviors, and feelings of other people (Spector, 2006). Leaders influence others, often by inspiring, enlivening, and engaging others to participate. Controlling others and being liked by everyone are not traits of effective leaders. The most valuable followers are skilled, self-directed employees who participate actively in setting the group's direction and invest time and energy into the group.
