Does it apply to East versus West? rice versus wheat? or are they all from North America.

The end result is all that matters. Are they success or not?

    You can be successful in some ways and fail in others.

    Anthony Bourdain was the celebrity chef's celebrity chef and died by suicide.

    Howard Hughes revolutionized aviation and went crazy at the end of his life.

      "You can be successful in some ways and fail in others."

      You mention things that are not successful in one's personal life. When it comes to your boss, the only success that matters is in terms of the business.

        A business can appear to be successful and then turn out to be a mirage (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Lay certainly or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Welch arguably) or be successful for a while and make an series of own goals (Tesla made electric cars mainstream, but decided to leave the mass market to BYD and introduce the marginally successful cybertruck and then had its market collapse because politics turned liberal consumers, who wanted electric vehicles, against it without selling electric cars to conservatives)

Researchers conducted a series of surveys and experiments involving more than 2,000 participants.

It would be useful to know what industry a/o role these people worked in. Perhaps leadership style is a function of industry? Perhaps personality type draws certain people to certain industries?

    >It would be useful to know what industry

    I've found this not to be the strongest defining factor.

    When I moved to the big city as a youngster, I knew I was going to be seeing more rats race and dogs eat dogs than ever before.

    These are two completely different things, but I was not disappointed. Well literally no more disappointed than I already was, it was just more of the same destructive aggression seen among those who prefer less crowded types of jungles.

    It's been so many decades overall and every single time when bossy aggression rears its ugly head it has been a poor substitute for sensibility, filling the vacancy left by an extreme lack of natural leadership ability.

    The kind you just can't fix.
