Leadership
Theories that explain leadership effectiveness in
terms of situational moderator variables, aspects of
the situation that enhance or nullify the effects of a
leader’s traits or behavior, are called contingency
theories of leadership. These types of theories are
most useful when they include intervening variables
to explain why the effect of behavior on outcomes
varies across situations.
