    A A&C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B D&E Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C B&D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D A&E Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The phrase "as any would expect for" is grammatically incorrect. "Any" is a determiner and cannot stand alone as the subject of a clause in this context. The correct indefinite pronoun is "anyone". The phrase should be "as anyone would expect". The use of "for" after "expect" is also awkward and can be removed for better flow, but the main error is the use of "any". The sentence discusses the importance of "good chemistry" between a leader and a strategist. "Strategist" is a person, a role that complements a leader, and it fits the parallelism of "leader." "Strategy" is a plan or method, which is an abstract concept.
