Could you explain \"Zeitgeist Leadership\" theory? Please give some examples.

Solution

hi,

The correct answer is as follows;

Zeitgeist leadership theory states that leaders become leaders not because they have the characteristic to become a leader but instead they become leaders because of the social circumstances at the time. Therefore, in a nutshell its not the characteristics that shapes them but the social customs and situations prevalent at that time. For example, Gandhi was a prime evidence for zeitgeist leadership theory. His leadership was not the outcome of the internal characteristics that he had but it was more due to the social condition in India at the time.
