Leadership Case Study

According to the textbook, Introduction to Leadership: Concepts and Practice, there are over 100 definitions of the word “leadership”, and all of them are unique in their own way (Northouse, 2015, p.1). There are so many different aspects to leadership that is it nearly impossible to have one definition that covers every area. Each and every person that is a considered a leader has his or her own way of leading because every situation, whether it be work, a team, at home, etc., calls for different and distinctive ways of leading people. Northouse states that there are six main aspects of leadership; it’s a trait, ability, skill, behavior, relationship, and an influential process (Northouse, p. 3-6). Giving a clear answer as to what leadership is defined as is very difficult, but this paper will talk about my specific leadership skills and what leadership means to me.

Addressing organizational needs, problems and strengths begins with leadership. Ensuring needs, problems and strengths are appropriately measured, analyzed and, where appropriate diverted, begins with great leaders. Great leadership is about “ferocious resolve, an almost stoic determination to do whatever needs to be done to make the company great.” (Collins, 2001). Success for the leadership capstone project can be defined many ways; implementing a solution to resolve the problem as well as acknowledging the limitations of the study and identifying areas of focus for future research. Success for this leadership project is due in part to the results and findings of the study; however, the fundamental key to its success centers around leadership.

Women in Leadership Laurier has been the most rewarding position I’ve ever had at Laurier. This position enabled me to grow my leadership skills and enhance my communication skills entirely. Not just with the tasks of emailing external partners for the events but creating schedules to make sure my team and I were on the same page during all of our events. During my year at Women in Leadership Laurier, I’ve had the fortunate privilege to move from a coordinator position to a VP position within the last 7 months. During this time I was able to make a contribution to gathering different contacts, collecting over 500$ and establishing long lasting partnerships with companies like RBC and Coca Cola.

Leadership is a process of influencing activities of a particular group of people with the aim of attaining certain stipulated goals. In defining leadership there is need to consider a particular group, the common goals and the duties that are allocated to specific members of the group depending on their abilities (Fiedler 1976). Leadership therefore cannot successfully occur unless members of the group are given different considerations in terms of personality, traits and responsibilities. In considering leadership, it is important to look at the leader, the group or organization they are leading, the members as individuals and the situation; these are

This report seeks to explore and analyse the leadership of my former manager, Paul (name has been changed). It aims to critically evaluate his leadership by referencing examples of his behaviour, and applying leadership concepts, theory and case studies. The report describes my observations of Paul as my direct manager, and my view of his interactions with followers, colleagues and superiors. As the report draws on my observations, the analysis is limited to my personal views on his leadership. Additionally, due to the plethora of leadership theories and concepts, I have focussed on concepts that are relevant to Paul’s leadership.

Over the years, scholars and management theorists have cultivated several leadership styles that they have encouraged people to apply and try to implement. However, most of these theories have shown various short comings. Typically, none of these styles has proven to work best in diverse situations. In the late 1960’s, the Situational Leadership Model was developed. In this paper, I will discuss the details about the situational leadership model. In detail, the paper begins with a defined introduction of what the situational leadership model is about and an interpretation of its origination. An outline of the model will follow after which a discussion about the benefits and drawbacks of this model will shortly follow.
