Abstract

In the early 1900s leadership traits were studied to determine what made certain people great like Thomas Jefferson, Napoleon, Abraham Lincoln, and Mahatma Gandhi. These studies were called "great men" theories. Subsequently, "Traits" theories of leadership have come up with the philosophy that Leadership is not limited to a few historic great men.
