Leadership is a blend of factors shaped by the environmental impact. Goals are guides for leaders and their followers which govern the leadership process. Personality and values shape a person’s leadership skills.
The latter become most influential when charismatic individuals emerge in times of crisis—whether generated from external threats—such as economic crises, changes in the political environment, or internal threats
such as upending reorganizational change, succession, and new partnering caused by mergers and acquisitions, etc. Finally, the acceptance of followers and/or encouragement is where leaders draw most of their power.
