He really grasps the idea that the separateness of the traditional leader, allowing for followers to have their own ideas and opinions, and the continuing development of citizen leaders, everyday people who use action and knowledge to contribute to the common good in different areas, gives way to the fact that a following must be earned and that most leaders aren\u2019t as popular as they seem. I also agree with the second half of Gardner\u2019s point when he writes that followers are almost never as submissive as they seem, because many people who listen to leaders and agree with their vision or mission probably don\u2019t agree with all of their opinions and speeches, leading to a group who uses their voices to communicate their own ideals and values.<\/p>\n<div>In Mabey\u2019s article, they listed five theories of leadership: trait, organizational, vision, power, and situational. I think that the most ideal and best way a leader should interact and act is through the situational theory because there is interaction amongst the leader and their followers and the leader has the ability to influence the group. This is an important trait to obtain as a leader, to influence, because without it, people won\u2019t follow you or listen to you.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I believe Gardner summed up both of the articles when he stated that leaders are almost never as in charge as they are pictured.
