Johnny is a six year old in the first grade. During recess, he enjoys playing a made up game called Kingdom, in which he is the king and leads his kingdom to victory in battle. Which of the following theories of leadership describes Johnny’s leadership skills?
  1. Situational theory
  2. Determinate theory
  3. Trait theory
  4. Behavioral theory
Explanation
Answer: C - The trait theory best describes Johnny’s leadership skills. The trait theory explains that individuals are born with inherent traits that determine whether they will be a good leader. These traits include motivation and self-confidence, among others. Potential leaders should not be identified by their inherent traits alone; their ability to apply these traits in different situations should be examined as well.
