Answer to Question 1

D
Research by Kirkpatrick and Locke (1991) concluded that leaders posses six traits: drive, desire to lead, honesty, self-confidence, cognitive ability, and knowledge of business. Wood identified five dominant factors that influenced leadership development: self-confidence, innate qualities, progression of experience, influence of significant others, and personal life factors. Stodgill identified the following traits of a leader: intelligence, self-confidence, determination, integrity, sociability. Murphy and DeBack (1991) identified four characteristics of leaders: caring, respectability, trustworthiness, and flexibility.

Answer to Question 2

A
Bennis and Nanus (1985) have stated that guided vision, passion, and integrity are fundamental qualities of effective leaders. Knowledge of self, honesty and maturity; self-confidence and determination; self-awareness and sociability are also desirable characteristics in leaders, but are not part of the group of qualities identified by Bennis and Nanus.
