When we think about people who are leaders, we often get a mental picture of someone who is older, smarter, and wir than ourlves. Studies of leadership, though, have usually found that there is almost no relationship between skill as a leader and traditional measures of intelligence.
Some recent rearch by psychologist Red Fiedle and his colleagues suggests that both intelligence and experience may be important but just now how important depends upon how stressful the work situation is and what kind of task is to be accomplished. The rearchers obtained measures of intelligence, experience, performance, and stress.
