The more the power a leader has the greater the influence on those that they lead (ibid). Power and influence are needed to get something done through others.French and Raven attempted to determine the sources of power leaders use to influence others in one of their research study. The findings of the research led them to identify five sources of power which can be grouped into two categories: organisational power and personal power. However it should be noted that the various sources of power are completely separate from each other. Sometimes leaders use these sources of power in varying combinations depending on the situation. Leaders must…

A generation of evidence from behavioral genetics reveals that "everything is genetic," meaning we have yet to discover an important human behavior that does not have genetic origins. Though we're not aware of any such study with respect to heroism, it would be surprising if courageous behavior were not at least partly genetic. It's foolish to think courageous people aren't exceptional because of who they are. Just as we know there is an entrepreneurial personality and a leader personality, there is a heroic personality. Research suggests, for example, that people who score high on conscientiousness are more likely to engage in courageous behavior. Not all leaders are heroes, but many have exhibited courageous behavior. When Richard Branson launches his latest attempt to set the world record for an…
