Discussion:
Is there one best way? Assuming the responsibility of leadership, a leader also assumes the intellectual qualities that accompany it. Many leaders have made poor process improvement decisions to achieve their goals. For this assignment, use the Internet to find 2 articles that discuss the decision of one leader of an organization that was considered ill-advised by the authors. Your articles should be found online in the popular press or a professional journal. Be sure to apply the material from your text to your discussion.
For your first post, describe the key points of the article and detail why the author of the article found it to be a poor decision. Explain whether you agree that the leader's decision was questionable, or poor and was the decision positive in anyone's view point.
This discussion will be at least 300 words.
Please remember that the original post on the discussion boards is for your researched thought. If you describe an opinion it should be grounded in citation and reference based research. The purpose of the assignment is for you to critically examine issues, using research as your foundation for your ideas. Ideas built from research create credibility with the reader. It also enhances your critical thinking as well as your own enlightenment. Many times we have an opinion that after we research the opinion we find that there is evidence of counter intuitive concepts that lead to new ways of looking at our original idea.
Do remember that it is not good form to use the first person in professional writing.
