Leadership is a complex process that requires leaders to critically appraise the circumstances in which they find themselves to best determine how to lead and influence those around them. There are multiple tactics a leader can employ in any given circumstance to influence a situation or their followers. Compare two leaders you have dealt with in the past. What different tactics did these leaders employ to influence situations or people? Which tactics were successful? Which tactics were not successful? As a leader, how can you critically appraise situations to make sure you select appropriate tactics for influencing a given situation?

Myers-Briggs: Extroverts Are most student government leaders extroverts? According to Myers-Briggs estimates, about $82 \%$ of college student government leaders are extroverts (Source: Myers -Briggs Type Indicator Atlas of Type Tables). Suppose that a Myers-Briggs personality preference test was given to a random sample of 73 student government leaders attending a large national leadership conference and that 56 were found to be extroverts. Does this indicate that the population proportion of extroverts among college student government leaders is different (either way) from $82 \% ?$ Use $\alpha=0.01.$
