A large part of an individual\u2019s leadership potential refers to innate personality traits which are brought out by relevant nurturing processes. Environment, favorable or unfavourable, interacts with these processes and impacts the flourishing of natural potential. Experience promotes the positive growth of innate potential that one possesses. Using data from India, this article looks into the systematic impact of public administrative training institutes on the development of top-tier civil servants. By comparing the performance of officers in public administration training academy possessing innate personality traits suitable for transformational leadership vis-\u00e0-vis innate personality traits suitable for transactional leadership, we test whether current training evaluation promotes transformational innate personality traits and suggests the implications. Interestingly, our mix-method study evaluating the entry-level induction training of public administrative leaders reveals that there is a gap between theory and praxis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research Seminar by Prof. Ram Kumar Kakani,\u00a0Professor, IIM Kozhikode was held on 16th July 2020.
