Alpha Male Theory

Alpha Male Theory suggests that in social groups, certain males tend to establish dominance through traits like confidence, assertiveness, and leadership. These individuals are often perceived as natural leaders or top performers, influencing group dynamics. The idea originated from studies of animal behavior but has been applied to human social hierarchies. However, it’s important to note that human social structures are complex, and leadership qualities can also be cooperative, empathetic, and context-dependent, rather than solely based on dominance or aggression.
