Abstract
There is a growing interest among corporations and government
agencies for improving management and employee muscle.
The list of organizations that have established physical fitness
programs for their managers and employees is expanding
every day. Those not yet committed are contemplating the consequences
of initiating such an effort.
This study was undertaken to give interested organizations
a better idea of what to expect from improved management
and employee muscle. The effort was focused on uncovering
the personality and behavior changes which result from improved
physical fitness because there is a lack of clear and consistent
information in these areas. Because of the growing number
of executives and managers who are committing themselves
to better fitness, the uncovered personality and behavioral
changes were also related to common leadership traits.
The results indicate that improved physical fitness can
significantly affect the individual in terms of changes in
personality and behavior. These changes also appear to have
a significant positive effect on individual leadership traits.
