Assignment
As cited in our text, Rost (1991) noted that there are over 100 definitions of leadership in the literature specific to the topic of leadership. We have addressed several components of leadership, and there are a variety of terms used to refer to particular leadership styles. Now you will review these and build a personal working definition of leadership. As this is just the start of our course together, I hope you will refine your definition as we learn more about the topics, and you learn from each other in our discussions.
o List at least two leadership concepts that you feel are most important or most appealing to you, and what about each concept you find appealing.
o Reflect on the leader you described in our discussion and provide an example of his or her skills to show which leadership aspects were demonstrated by this person.
o Share which aspects of leadership you feel you use most often when you act in a leadership role.
o In at least two to three sentences, share your working definition of leadership and why you think this definition is best as you plan to grow your leadership skills.
I would recommend you paste your responses into Grammarly to help you with editing. I do this regularly, and it is a great help, even if you are a strong writer.
