Week 11 Discussion

Charismatic leaders are said to possess special traits that influence their behaviors. Three such traits described in the chapter are envisioning, empathy, and empowerment. Explain how each of these traits influences how followers perceive the charismatic leader. Servant leadership emphasizes being able to serve and lead. In your opinion, is this contradictory or doable in today's business environment?  Please answer the question with your own substantive input. Also, you must reply to the posts of at least 2 other students in the class. You should participate throughout the week so others will be able to respond to your input and you to theirs.
