    Review key leadership styles recognized by FBLA - transformational, transactional, and servant leadership - as defined in Harvard Business Review research. Create a simple chart (e.g., Transformational=motivation, Transactional=rewards/punishments) to clarify differences before your organizational leadership practice test. Understanding these principles will boost your confidence during the simulated FBLA exam.
