Devine and Winter (2012, p. 25) state, “there is nothing magical about leadership, and there is nothing magical about teaching it or learning it.” They go on to define leadership as the ability to influence those who work for you to want to accomplish and strive to reach organizational goals and objectives.

In Phase 1, pre-training, Campbell’s CEO Institute teaches participants about leadership, formulating ideas and experiences and take time to reflect on what they have learned and apply it to all aspects of their lives. As the CEO, Conant was a motivator, “Doug is personally involved in all aspects—developing content, teaching, communicating with class members, and sharing lessons from his more than 30 years in business…….He’s all in. An active instructor, he’s fully present during the entire two-year journey” (Reardon, 2011). The program is developed internally which helps employees can build on their skills.

Transformational leadership taps into the motives of followers in order to reach their goals, while transactional focuses on the exchanges that occur between leaders and followers (Northouse, 2013). The branches of the military in general would be considered transactional leadership organizations. This type of leadership encourages followers to perform tasks at a high level in order to achieve advancement or increase in pay or rank. Conversely, transformational leadership would be focused on creating a connection between the leader and the followers, in order to perform tasks in such a way as to increase the feeling of morality in both the leader and the follower (Northouse, 2013). Panorama did not exhibit any behavior that tried to motivate Bailey to feel a connection to him. Instead, Panorama tried to intimidate, coerce, and punish Bailey to execute the tasks he was required to perform.
