Discussion: Leadership Theories

Think of a leader within your organization that you feel demonstrates ethical behavior. (This could be someone from a past or present employer, school, religious group, or family.)

Each example should be written with multiple sentence answers. 

  • Discuss why you feel they are an ethical leader.
  • Give at least two examples of their ethical behavior.
  • What is their leadership style?
  • How did you determine it?  Give an example of how they exhibit their leadership style. The original posting or answer to the questions must go well beyond a one or two worded response.

Be sure to access the watch page and watch the two videos before creating your posting. Enter this forum and discuss the prompts posed above. After you have submitted your discussion response, read through all the contributions in the forum, and then reply to at least two of your classmates.

Try to choose at least one person who has a different approach than your own. Be sure to make meaningful and respectful comments.
