In the Beowulf, Hrothgar has portrayed as an effective leader <em>“The fortune of war favored Hrothgar”.</em>

"Friends and kinsmen flocked to his ranks

young followers, a force that grew

to be a mighty army."

In that place and time, the evidence of a good leader is characterized by the one who wins the battle. People willingly followed someone who would defeat their enemies. Hrothgar in contrary to the beginning will later be paralyzed by Grendel.

What people and the poet valued was when Hrothgar built a great hall. The hall served the purpose of saving from enemies and can be used as a shelter, whenever in danger. It further added to the town's greatness. Hence the hall was the sign of power and greatness.

At last, Hrothgar  "Doled out rings/and torques at the table", that is he praised and rewarded those who deserved. Through this act, he portrayed himself as a gracious king. It was a presumably a value to the Anglo-Saxons and the poets to be rewarded.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The person’s ability and willingness

Explanation:

Paul Hersey and Ken Blanchard are probably the most important authors when talking about situational leadership, their book was first published in 1982 and since then it has become very well known .  

The objective that situational leadership has is to give a classification to the followers that are analyzed, taking a matrix as a reference. However, it is important not to forget that analyzing a group is not the same to analyzing an individual and it is vital to be careful when dealing with it.
