Charismatic Leadership
The concept of
charismatic leadership
, like trait theories, assumes that charisma is an
individual characteristic of the leader.
Charisma
is a form of interpersonal attraction
that inspires support and acceptance. All else being equal, then, someone with charisma
is more likely to be able to influence others than someone without charisma. For exam-
ple, a highly charismatic supervisor will be more successful in influencing subordinate
behavior than a supervisor who lacks charisma. Thus, influence is again a fundamental
element of this perspective.
