Psych 305 Midterm Motivation and Leadership

1. Management consulting firms did very well on a per-employee basis partly because they are mostly comprised (as opposed to blue-collar or entry-level workers). How big a factor do you think composition of a workforce is in producing a CEO?

2. Do you think so called leadership factories are also better places for non-leaders to work? Why or why not?

3. Assume you had job offers from two companies that differed only in how often they produced CEOs would this difference affect your decision?

4. Do these data give any credence to the value of leader selection and leader development? Why or why not?
