Answer to Question 1

C
Transactional leaders tend to focus on day-to-day operations and are short-term goal orientated. A transformational leader inspires and motivates others to excel and participate in a vision that goes beyond self-interest. A charismatic leader displays self-confidence and strength in convictions and communicates high expectations. An autocratic leader makes decisions and uses power to command and control others.

Answer to Question 2

A
A transformational leader empowers others. A charismatic leader has an appeal based on personal power. A transactional leader focuses on day-to-day operations. An autocratic leader has central power and does not empower others.
