Why was the trait theory of leadership mainly unsuccessful?
◦ Too much emphasis was placed on personality traits rather than physical traits, which have been found to successfully predict leadership.
◦ Research has shown that leadership traits are gender specific, so the process of choosing leaders based on traits is discriminatory.
◦ Organizations found the trait theory of leadership too expensive to implement due to the high costs of testing potential leaders.
◦ Researchers were not able to identify a set of traits that always differentiated a leader from a nonleader.
