Time Before Class in Week 7 Place Turnitin & paper copy Format Written report (2500 words) and oral class group presentation Learning Outcomes and Graduate Attributes Completing this assignment will help you develop your own personal perspective of leadership. Preparation Before starting this assignment, you should have read the instructions below and raised any concerns with your lecturer. Instructions The purpose of this project is to apply the concepts and theories in the unit to the analysis of leadership of a well-known leader. 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, religious leaders, sports coaches, and leaders of social movements. You are NOT to choose any of the leaders used by students of the class in 2016. These include: Pope Francis, Aung San Suu Kyi, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Sachin Tendulkar, Deng Xiaoping, Malala Yousafzai, Imran Khan, Narendra Modi, Lee Kuan Yew, Dr Kiran Bedi, Angela Merkel, Mahatma Gandhi, the King of Bhutan and Akio Toyoda. You must read at least three separate sources (biographies and articles) that provide enough detail to identify specific traits and s******s, 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. A minimum requirement of the assignment is to identify specific leadership behaviors and refer to relevant leadership theories to explain why the behaviors were appropriate or inappropriate in the situation faced by the leader. Even better is to identify reasons why the person’s leadership was successful enough to make them famous. Both the strengths and weaknesses of ‘your’ leader should be identified. Issues of ethics in leadership should also be considered. It is helpful to 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. It is essential to describe incidents involving effective or ineffective behavior by the leader to support your analysis. Resources 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. If movies or documentaries have been made about the leader include short excerpts in the presentation
