Compare and contrast the "Northouse" Chapter 4 and 5 - Behavior and Situational Approaches to Leadership.

You will look at the theories from five different viewpoints:

1. Leader: What are the implications of this theory (or approach) on the leader?
2. Follower: What are the implications of this theory (or approach) on the follower?
3. Context: What are the implications of this theory (or approach) on the context?
4. Process: What are the implications of this theory (or approach) on the process of leadership, i.e., the act of leadership?
5. Outcomes: What are the implications of this theory (or approach) on outcomes (or results)?

Use and fill in the following table to complete the theory matrix for: Behavioral and Situational Approaches to Leadership.

Behavioral Approach Situational Approach What are the implications of this theory (or approach) on the leader? For example, how is it [or, is it not) leader-centered, and what does it tell us about the leader and/or the leader's part in the process of leadership? What are the implications of this theory (or approach) on the follower? For example, how is it (or, is it not) follower-centered, and what does it tell us about the follower and/or the follower's part in the process of leadership? What are the implications of this theory (or approach) on the context? For example, how does the theory (or approach) characterize the situation surrounding the leader- follower relationship (i.e., formal or informal, social or work, dynamic or static, emergency or routing, complex or simple, task-oriented, relationship-oriented, etc_). What are the implications of this theory {or approach) on the process of leadership, i.e., the act of leadership? For example, who is doing the leading and following, how is influence being exerted, is it one-way or reciprocal in nature, how is goal attainment being guided, what {if any) are the exchanges taking place, how are relationships characterized and/or what are they based on (e.g., high quality, respect, work)? Outcomes What are the implications of this theory (or approach) on outcomes (or results)? For example, what can be included as arising from the interplay between the leader, fallower, and situation (context), i.e_, trust, group cohesion, affection, job satisfaction, job performance, organizational performance, individual performance, etc
