This activity gives you the opportunity to consider your leadership style, values, attitudes, behaviors, and norms that will guide how you will lead others and how you will lead intentionally—strategically. Morrie seemed to grasp the notion that his leadership was of value to others, even in his final days. What do you think they said about him in the eulogy? Likely, they spoke of legacy. For this activity, you will consider your leadership legacy and guiding principles.
You will create a one-page, infographic to demonstrate your personal leadership credo. it is about your leadership philosophy. You can use technology such as Canva, PPT, or Word to create a one-page expression of your learning. Creating our own patterns helps us to learn. This one-pager connects to both the verbal and visual learning styles, to what you’ve read and experienced from the Mitch Album reading, Tuesdays with Morrie. Again, you’ll have the opportunity to connect words, images, and personal values. In short, this one-pager becomes a metaphor for the learning you’ve done.
Your one-page, illustration should:
- Highlight at least three personal values that will guide your leadership. (Values statements)
- Make a personal statement about what you’ve read, viewed, or experienced as you’ve interacted with the reading. (Morrie Take away)
- Discuss at least two operating norms that will guide your leadership. (What behaviors will be observable from your leadership? Think about styles and the characteristics we discussed of those top ten.)
- Be creative and engaging.
