• Complete the Path-Goal Leadership Questionnaire (page 133). What style did you tend to rely on most? Tell a story that shows how your behavior in one situation illustrated your most common leadership style.
• If a leader uses a different style of leadership with each of his followers, how might that lead to perceptions of favoritism? What could a leader do to avoid such impressions while still being adaptable to follower needs?
• Is path-goal theory useful for deciding how to teach a college class? In what ways is an academic setting different from a work setting? How would you assess the subordinate characteristics and task characteristics of your class?
