Instructions:
Using relevant theories and models critically evaluate and analyze the leadership style of the
leader you have been assigned in the following list.
• An evaluation of the leader by referring to concepts and theories covered in the course
(e.g. style, behavior, traits, attitudes, power, influence tactics etc.) and by referring to
relevant examples and mini-cases in the textbook, wherever appropriate.
It is important to demonstrate your knowledge about leadership and to clearly provide reference
of your sources. Read about leadership in journal articles, books (including your textbook), and
leadership literature, etc. Note down the sources and logically use them throughout your
individual report. You may also refer to the HBR leadership articles shared with you during the
course.
Remember that pure description and paraphrasing is not sufficient. A good report will clearly
take an analytical approach and demonstrate application of leadership concepts/theories. In
order to get good grades, you need to structure your discussion well and use good references.
Your report should be between 500-1000 words. Lengthy reports will be penalized in terms of
marks. Quality is more important than quantity.
Your report will be graded on the following criteria: application of leadership concepts/theories
as evidenced by events in the assigned leader’s life, originality of information, clear and logical
presentation of ideas, worded in simple English, use of correct grammar, spelling, punctuation
and capitalization. Please include proper headings and present information in short paragraphs
arranged in logical order.
You may use information taken from the Internet, but do NOT copy entire passages verbatim.
