Abstract:

The study of leadership has been described by three Universalist Approaches, the Leader Behavior, Personality Trait, and the Great Man. This paper barrow from each of these three approaches to analyze the leadership potential of Air Force officers in the 1967-1969 year groups. The Leader Behavior approach is used to analyze the major situations which have influenced the leadership potential of the study group. The Personality Trait approach is used to compare the groups leadership potential against one set of common leadership qualities. Finally, the Great Man approach is used to actually predict leadership potential for both peacetime and wartime situations. sdw
