Answer to Question 1

Implicit leadership theory focuses on how leaders are perceived by followers. Leadership itself is what people see when observing a leader's actions. The theory informed GLOBE researchersthey were observing leaders in different cultures. Limitations: does not consider what leaders actually do, only the perceptions; does not consider the outcomes of what their behaviors are.

Answer to Question 2

When some leaders encourage the fight-flight assumption, they may end up creating an in-group/out-group division. This could further create a strong in-group of those followers who feel a strong connection to the leader, potentially making these followers more dependent on the leader. Applied to LMX, the goal is for the leader to try to get all followers in the in-group, and in doing so they develop relationships and partnerships based on social and workplace invitations to do more than just what is in their job descriptions.
