Leadership is an activity that has existed since the formation of human society and is one of the decisive factors in the development of human society and organizations. Therefore, it always receives special attention from everyone. Especially in the context of globalization, with the explosion of knowledge, and the rapidly changing economic, cultural, and social environment, leadership has become a particularly important topic.
