Traits of a leader,2002 Discusses the different quality traits needed by a leader, according to popular theories. Abstract This paper examines the following questions: What makes a successful leader? Are there certain traits and distinctive characteristics known as "dispositions" that make one person a leader over another? Or does the leader evolve out of the situation. In effect, this is a question of is a leader made or is he or she born? The paper answers these questions according to leading theorists in the field. From the Paper "In the self-concept-based motivational theory of charismatic leadership, George & James (1993), argue that charismatic leadership has the effect of strongly engaging followers' self-concepts in the interest of the mission articulated by a leader. The theory suggests that charismatic leaders increase the intrinsic variance of efforts and goals by linking them to valued aspects of followers' self-concepts."

Managers and Leaders, 2007 This paper discusses managers and leaders and their respective functions. Abstract The paper looks at the differences between the job of a manager and of a leader. The paper illustrates how a leader inspires whereas a manager maintains. The paper also explores the factors that influence an average manager to become a great leader. From the Paper "Managers and leaders can be two different people, and sometimes if one is lucky it can be the same person. There are good managers, and on the other hand, there are good leaders. Sometimes, a good leader has no idea how to manage effectively, and also the reverse is true as well; good managers might not know how to lead. " Managing is working within boundaries while leading is expanding boundaries. Managing is controlling resources while leading is influencing others. Managing is contracting how and when work will be done while leading is pursuing enough data to decide now. One difference suggested by this list is that managing may be more analytical, while leading may be more intuitive and visionary. Thus, these are really more accurately described as actions than absolute roles." (Robbins, 1998)"

in their hand, and great musicians who were composing before they could walk. But, we can't all be Mozarts, most of us must observe, study, and practice the techniques of success.

Do Corporations develop leaders? This paper explores whether organizations themselves develop leaders or if they hire leaders with previously acquired leadership skills. Abstract This paper examines corporations that are known for demonstrating strong leadership skills and explores whether these corporations themselves have developed these leaders independently. The paper analyzes and compares different leadership styles in order to show what types of leadership skills and methods are acquired prior to gaining a powerful position within a company. The paper

discusses which skills are essential for an organization to develop in order to survive in today's competitive economy. The paper concludes that available research indicates that some corporations do and others do not develop leaders. The paper notes, however, how the available research has limitations. From the Paper "In the past few decades, competition among all types of corporations, regardless of their goods or services sold, has dramatically increased. As a result, leadership theories have emerged as key factors in determining the long-term success or ultimate failure of such organizations. However, a valid question for research in this area is whether corporations truly develop leaders that result in the success of the corporation, or are successful companies hiring strong leaders that have the ability to expand on their previously acquired skill set."
