Shakespeare was following the traditions of English Drama of his day as set by his contemporaries Thomas Kyd and Christopher Marlowe. He also wrote one play based in its structure as well as its plot on a Roman play. Roman literature, which was the staple of Shakespeare's education, had a profound effect on the way in which Shakespeare structured his sentences and his characters' speeches.

What was William Shakespeare's impact on Europe?
Shakespeare's reputation took a while to build up, but by the end of the eighteenth century, he was recognized in Europe as a great writer, and translations began to appear. Some of the great nineteenth century European writers famously translated Shakespeare's works--Goethe into German and Tolstoi into Russian for example. Many Romantic composers adopted Shakespearean themes for symphonic compositions (Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet, for example) or operas (Verdi's Otello or Falstaff for example). Shakespeare's plays are perhaps less likely to be actually staged in Europe than in the English-speaking world, as the style of theatre is different from European traditions.

What were William Shakespeare's leadership qualities?
We actually do not know. Shakespeare was a member of an acting company and an important one, but he was not its leader. Its leader was Richard Burbage, the lead actor. It was Burbage, not Shakespeare, who decided to build the Globe Theatre and hired the architect. Shakespeare is mentioned prominently in lists of the actors in the company, sometimes at the very top, so he was important, but that does not mean he was a leader in any way. The notion that Shakespeare was a "director" in the modern sense is pure conjecture; we have no reason to believe that anyone fulfilled that role in Elizabethan playing companies.
What theater did Shakespeare and his company supposedly build?
