Trait and Behavioral Theories Together
• Leaders who display CONSIDERATION and STRUCTURING BEHAVIORS, do appear to be more Effective.
• Both types of theories should be Integrated: - Conscientious( Trait) leaders are more likely to be Structuring (Behavior)
- Extraverted( Trait) leaders are more likely to be Considerate (Behavior)

Trait and Behavioral Theories Together
• Apart from both the Theories the Missing factor is the Consideration of Situational Factors that Influence Success and Failure.

• LPC Questionnaire; contains sets of 16 contrasting Adjectives e.g., Efficient- Inefficient Supported- Hostile

Three Contingency Dimensions that define the key situational factors that determine leadership Effectiveness:
1. Leader-member relations -The degree of Confidence, Trust, and Respect members have in their Leader (Good or Poor)
![Page 12: Basic Approaches to Leadership](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469e9b8b4af9f09638b484b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
DEFINING THE SITUATION
2. Task Structure
