Values help determine the attitudes leaders have about themselves and about their followers. An attitude is an evaluation-either positive or negative-about people, events, or things. A leader's attitudes toward followers influence how he or she relates to people. Every leader's style is based to some extent on attitudes about human nature in general-ideas and feelings about what motivates people, whether people are basically honest and trustworthy, and the extent to which people can grow and change.

Leaders can learn to work more effectively with different personality types by following some simple guidelines: (a) Understand your own personality and how you react to others. Avoid judging people based on limited knowledge, and realize that everyone has different facets to their personality. (b) Treat everyone with respect. People like to be accepted and appreciated for who they are. (c) Acknowledge each person's strengths. Everyone wants to be recognized for their unique talents, so be sure to acknowledge and make use of people's useful personality characteristics. (d) Strive for understanding. A good approach to take with a personality type widely different from yours is to clarify questions every time there's a potential for miscommunication. (e) Remember that everyone wants to fit in. No matter their personalities, people typically take on behavior patterns that are the norm for their environment.
