a. correct: the theories were built one upon the other. great man theory
included cultural and societal views that suggested that great leaders
were born with inherited traits. this was abandoned because it did little
to predict who would turn out to be a leader. in behavioural theories,
leaders were divided into those who were task-oriented vs. people-
oriented. this was determined to be unhelpful—no one style was better
than another and effectiveness was setting-dependent. contingency
theories were based on the assumption that leadership varied based on
the situation and there was a need for innovation. interactional theories
look at leadership style but focus on how it varies depending on
characteristics of followers.

of management theories.
