*Did the author treat his subject fairly and completely, or were there gaps in the coverage that would indicate a biased point of view?
*The author indicated that a degree of ‘charisma’ is necessary for an effective leader. However, it did not adequately define charisma, or explain what a person who isn’t charismatic by nature can do to cultivate this trait.
