What factors should the leader base their behavior on, such as: 1) the followers intelligence, 2) personality traits, 3) values, 4) preferences, and/or 5) technical competence?

Or leaders may provide relatively little praise and assurances to followers with high self-confidence. Although leaders often have different interactional styles when dealing with individual followers, is there an optimum way for leaders to adjust their behavior with different followers and thereby increase their likelihood of success.What factors should the leader base their behavior on, such as: 1) the followers intelligence, 2) personality traits, 3) values, 4) preferences, and/or 5) technical competence?
