Are Sarah Palin, Barack Obama, and Angela Merkel transformational or charismatic leaders? What data would you need to gather to answer this question?
Part 1Please limit your response to each question to three sentences. Conscise, thoughtful answers will score full points.1. Are Sarah Palin, Barack Obama, and Angela Merkel transformational or charismatic leaders? What data would you need to gather to answer this question?2. Are Vladimir Putin and Hamid Karzai charismatic or transformational leaders? Would your answers differ if you were a Russian or Afghanistan citizen?3. Research shows that females are seen as more transformational leaders, yet they hold relatively few top leadership positions compared to men. Why do you think this is the case?Hughes, Ginnett Curphy Chapter 14Second upload of Hughes, Ginnett CurphyPart 2Please limit your response to each question to three sentences.

Briefly discuss the importance of wind as an agent of erosion, and explain why such statements are probably inaccurate.
Wind is included along with gravity, water, and ice as an agent of erosion. In many areas of natural beauty, statements are often made that credit wind as having sculpted the landscape. Briefly discuss the importance of wind as an agent of erosion, and explain why such statements are probably inaccurate.Lutgens, F. K., Tarbuck, E. J. (2011).
