Certain personality traits may help best predict who will be a leader while other traits can be linked to leader effectiveness. Just because someone emerges as a leader does not mean he or she will necessarily be a good leader. Furthermore, destructive traits can be challenging and time-consuming to deal with because personality traits are difficult to fundamentally change. Researchers have found that some traits are more likely to lead to positive change within developing leaders than others.
