Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: B) According to Fiedler's contingency model, the key factor predicting leadership success is the individual's basic leadership style. Since Fiedler assumes an individual's leadership style is fixed, effective group performance depends on the proper match between the leader's style and the degree to which the situation gives the leader control.
