The world has changed so much over the last two decades, that what was once considered "normal" is almost obsolete. Although if everyone acted the way they did years ago, it would no longer be considered normal. It’s almost a double standard. Some people go by the old standards and some people come up with a new diagnosis every day. Not that long ago, a child who couldn’t pay attention was considered a pain in the butt! Today, they are diagnosed with A.D.D. and medicated. If someone was unhappy with their life, they would either shut up about it or try to do things to change it. Now they are diagnosed with depression, and medicated. People who don’t recognize change in the world and don’t realize that people have to acclimate to certain situations, and that children are born into situations that they wouldn’t have been born into twenty years ago, are going to act differently than before. We are a product of our raising and surroundings. Times have changed and some people don’t realize that people change with them.

Could someone please give me any useful websites with advantages and limitations to these two competing theoretical approaches to Personality and Self / Identity.

What is their relevance to you – to what extent do these conceptual frameworks help you make sense of yourself and other people?

thanks

"Leadership theories and research to explore those theories have largely occurred within this century. The pervasive trends in leadership theory and research, according to Bryman (1992), have been within four stages. The four stages are identified as: Trait Approach (prior to the late 1940s); Style Approach (late 1940s to late 1960s); Contingency Approach (late 1960s to early 1980s); and New Leadership Approaches (since 1980s). These approaches all have a basic assumption or theme. Trait Approach is based on the idea that leadership is innate; Style Approach addresses the belief that leader behavior is tied to leadership effectiveness; Contingency Approach has to do with the premise that effective leadership is affected by the situation; and, finally, New Leadership Approach (charismatic leadership) focuses on the belief that leaders need a vision (Bryman, 1992)."

"Taking up a social constructionism perspective (e.g. Berger & Luckmann, 1966; Burr, 2003; Gergen, 1985, 1999) implies that we can not provide a single, objective and true
definition of leadership. Instead, leadership and its understanding are contingent upon the specific societal, cultural, and historical context." (2)
