Question

 Although there is no formal process of selection, in larger groups, leaders are usually chosen formally through election or recruitment（招募）．

Although leaders are often thought to be people with unusual personal ability, decades（十年） of research have failed to produce evidence that there are any “natural leaders”． It seems that there is no set of personal qualities that all leaders have in common; or rather更确切地说, any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meet the needs of that particular group．

Research suggests that there are typically two different leadership roles that are held by different individuals． Instrumental leadership is leadership that emphasizes the completion of tasks by a social group． Group members look to instrumental leaders to “get things done”． Expressive leadership, on the other hand, is leadership that emphasizes the collective well-beings福利 of a social group’s members． Expressive leaders are less concerned with the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group members and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them．

Instrumental leaders are likely to have a rather secondary relationship to other group members． They give others and may discipline（纪律约束） group members who inhibit （阻碍） attainment of the group’s goals． Expressive leaders develop a more personal or primary relationship to others in the group． They offer sympathy when someone experiences difficulties and try to solve problems that threaten to divide the group． As the difference between these two roles suggests, expressive leaders generally receive more personal affection from group members; instrumental leaders, if they are successful in promoting group goals, may enjoy a more distant respect．
