Leadership Interview
For this assignment, write an essay that addresses why (or why not) the person seems to be an effective leader, responding to the following questions (these questions should form the three sections of the essay):
• What characteristics (e.g., values; personality traits; cognitions, intelligence, emotions, perceptions and expectations, situations, etc.) does the leader have?
• What behaviors does the leader exhibit?
• Does his or her leadership approach seem to work well in actual business settings? Provide illustrative examples.
Regardless of "yes" or "no," explain his or her leadership effectiveness in relation to specific workplace outcomes you've learned in prior relevant coursework (e.g., justice, trust, motivation, job satisfaction, task performance, counterproductive behaviors, organizational commitment, etc.)
Be critical if needed, praiseworthy if deserved!
