1) Company founders play a key role in developing an organization's culture and values. Occasionally, their influence persists over years. From the stand point of strategic management theory, what are the pros and cons of this leadership influence, with respect to a sustainable competitive advantage.
2) Now that you are in week six, has your opinion changed about the two leadership styles discussed in week two? Explain your answer.
3) Sometimes organizations strategically hire from the outside to hire talent, bypassing existing employees. Review and establish whether there are any unethical considerations with this practice and what should be done instead? What effects does this strategic recruitment practice have on Double and Triple Loop Learning; does external talent strengthen or weaken the process of strategic learning? Explain why or why not.
4) Explain the differences between product innovations and process innovations. From your leadership style (as established in chapter one), which of these innovations is outside your comfort zone, explain why and what can you do to overcome this leadership obstacle.
5) What role does emotional intelligence play in developing strategic management leadership?
6) From a strategic management perspective make mention of a lesson you withdrew from this week's assigned videos
