The purpose of this project is to apply the concepts and theories discussed in the book and class lectures to the analysis of leadership by a famous or well-known leader. The project provides an opportunity to learn more about a specific type of leader that is especially interesting to you.
As a group, you can select any type of leader for whom there is sufficient information to provide a good analysis of leadership processes and outcomes. Examples include political leaders, military leaders, business executives, sports coaches, and leaders of social movements.
Sources:
You should read/consult at least five separate sources (biographies and articles) that provide enough detail to identify specific traits and skills, behaviors, influence processes, and relevant aspects of the situation.
The most useful type of source is a biographical account of the leader’s activities and accomplishments. Other relevant sources may include: an autobiographical account or memoirs written by the leader, a detailed, analytical article written by someone besides the leader, filmed biographies or documentaries about the leader, and dramatized accounts of significant events involving the leader.
All sources should be clearly cited in the paper!
Project Requirements:
1. A minimum requirement of the paper is to identify specific behaviors and refer to relevant theories to explain why the behaviors were appropriate or inappropriate in the situation faced by the leader.
2. Even more important is to identify reasons why the leader was successful enough to become famous.
3. Both strengths and weaknesses of each leader should be identified.
4. Issues of ethical leadership should be considered as well.
5. Use quotes and detailed descriptions of selected incidents to support conclusions about the leader’s behavior and influence on followers. (The source for any quotes or factual details should be clearly cited.)
