Abstract
Leadership-attempting research has revealed that the likelihood of a given individual speaking in a group is quite complex and is dependent on a large number of situational and perceptual variables. Furthermore, leadership attempting may be modified by changing the situation or the perceptions of a given individual up to the point that reinforcement from within the group becomes necessary to maintain or increase the desired behavior.Keywords
