Were this a notable, recognized social science theory, I'd expect Google Scholar and Google Books not to draw a blank on it.  I suspect instead that this is somebody shilling for a non-notable management theory or consultancy.  It is only superficially well written; in fact it tends to go on and on while |elaborately restating the obvious in a way typical of the genre: ''... a perspective of understanding leader individual differences. It is different from traditional trait perspectives. Specifically, it is based on theorists' arguments that leaders are best studied as entire patterns of traits rather than examining individual traits. This allows for an understanding of leader traits that better reflects the reality of individuals as whole entities. A better understanding of leader traits has implications for leader development, selection, and training
