Exploring Personal Leadership Styles

A leader is a visionary who has the end goal in mind and can see the big picture. A leader is a motivator of his/her followers. There are a variety of leadership styles a leader may hold. What separates a leader from the rest are the traits they posses to succeed and the various background assumptions held true by the leader.

After reading about leadership styles and conducting some outside research, analyze your own strengths and weaknesses as a leader. Relate these to the styles you studied. For example, one of your strengths could be a servant leadership style because of your ability to place the follower first.

Once you identified your strengths and weaknesses, determine what you could do to improve upon your strengths and mitigate your weaknesses. Prepare your analysis as a 1-2 page essay.
