Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Substitutes for leadership are factors in the workplace that can replace or reduce the need for a leader's influence. These factors may include the nature of the task, the employees' expertise, or the use of technology. When substitutes are strong, leaders may have less impact on employee behavior and performance, making them less necessary.
