“…The current sample is comprised of business leaders from the private business and from different sectors, which adds diversity to other studies of styles and competence. Other studies focused on undergraduates (Bavolar, 2013;del Missier et al, 2012), a heterogeneous population sample (Bruine de Bruin et al, 2007), military leaders (Carnevale et al, 2011;Connors et al, 2013Connors et al, , 2014Connors et al, , 2015Thunholm, 2004Thunholm, , 2009, political leaders (Connors, 2006;Mintz, 2004;Renshon, 2015), terrorist leaders (Chatagnier et al, 2012), sales managers (Russ et al, 1996) and managers from the automotive industry (Erenda et al, 2014). Also, by not using college sophomores, we do not need to rely on a possible relationship between the performance of an unexperienced sample and leaders, thus avoiding possible differences already reported in the literature (Mintz et al, 2006;Renshon, 2015;Sears, 1986).…”
