Suggested Answer: A

Trait.

The trait theory of leadership is the idea that successful leaders have particular personal traits (char-acteristics) which have enabled them to become effective leaders. 'A born leader', etc. Winston Churchill, V I Lenin, Laurens van der Post, and such like.

The view now is that leadership is more likely to be taught or trained, resulting in effective leaders.
