The followership approach that suggests leadership results from an interaction of leading and following is reminiscent of which major leadership approach?

A) trait approach
B) leader-member exchange
C) authentic leadership
D) behavioral approach

The followership approach, which highlights the importance of the relationship between leaders and followers, is similar to the leader-member exchange (LMX) approach. LMX suggests that leaders develop different relationships with different followers based on mutual trust, respect, and obligations. Like the followership approach, LMX emphasizes the importance of the leader-follower interaction and the dynamic nature of leadership. However, the other choices (trait, authentic, and behavioral approaches) do not specifically address the role of followership in terms of influencing leadership.
