In this paper, Steffen R. Giessner and Daan van Knippenberg propose a model in which leader characteristics and goal definition interact to affect leadership perceptions after failure.

Giessner and Daan van Knippenberg propose a model in which leader characteristics (leader group prototypicality-the leader's representativeness of group identity) and goal definition (a maximal goal that ideally would be reached vs. a minimal goal that ought to be reached) interact to affect leadership perceptions after failure.
