Learning Activity #2

In the article “Primal Leadership” (see reading) on page 45 has a short side note “Those Wicked Bosses Who Win” In the blurb the author suggests that Bill Gates’s personality was an exception to his theory that being in a good mood is very important to social success in a leader. Yet later he goes on to say that the exception actually wasn’t because Gates challenged his highly motivated employees. In short he was a situational exception.

After reading the article and the short side note, do you think situational exceptions exist or do you think that they really just use emotions to make their situation work for them?
