Answer to Question 1

A, C

Answer to Question 2

Opportunistic leadership uses any combination of the basic leadership styles and is therefore very flexible and adaptable. What makes this flexibility opportunistic is that the styles are used for personal advancement. Students can then argue the pros and cons of seeking personal advancement. Is it at the expense of the group, or in addition to meeting the needs of the group? If the latter, how transparent are the leader's motives? Do group members believe that by doing a good job for the group the leader is also trying to impress her boss and hoping to advance? Or is the leader secretly using the group for her own purposes?
