Activity Instructions
Draw upon your Leadership Development Plan to prepare an executive summary of your paper (see final project description for definition of executive summary) and a PowerPoint presentation in which you present your global leadership credentials to a corporate leadership team.
Imagine that you are interviewing for a dream leadership position in a global firm. (It may help you to identify a specific firm, industry, and leadership position. It can be fictitious if you'd prefer but will have more meaning if it is something you actually hope for in your future.) Before flying to corporate headquarters, you receive a request from the top leadership team. The team members ask to see a 10-minute presentation on:
Your concerns for the future.
Your preferred leadership theory.
An overview of your individual global leadership strengths.
Highlights of your plans to evolve your individual leadership skills.
Remember that you will want to tailor your presentation to reflect the particular firm, industry, and leadership position for which you are being considered.
Read the Presenting Yourself as a Global Leader Scoring Guide, in the Resources, to understand the criteria that will be used to grade your presentation.
Post your presentation (no more than 15 slides) with a detailed script (not bullet points but complete sentences and paragraphs) in this assignment with your executive summary. Also post both documents to the first discussion in this unit for feedback from your peers.
