Please describe a leadership situation you have been in recently, (most preferably within the last 6 months - 1 year). What was the situation, and what was your role in the situation? Where you already the leader or thrust into a situation? What was your style of leadership, and what was the outcome? If you could do the situation over again would you handle it the same way? why/why not? Examples you have previously shared on weekly discussion boards do not count – please use a different example. (some examples can include leadership roles in family life, at work, at school, etc.) And if, unfortunately, you have no leadership situations to share, please explain why you think that is. Specifically, what do you think is holding you back from taking leadership roles? And how do you plan to change that going forward so that you can have more leadership experiences?
You have just returned from a conference on leadership held in the lovely Southside of Chicago. You heard from a diverse range of interesting speakers such as Aaron ‘T-Bone’ Walker and Barrelhouse Chuck. However, it was Albert Collins talk on Authentic Leadership which you found the most interesting. Albert was quite critical of Authentic Leadership and since your boss, Eddy ‘The Chief’ Clearwater, wants to know more, he has asked you to prepare a summary for him. Outline the core criticisms of Authentic Leadership in practice AND as a theoretical framework in a memo to your boss. (400 words)
