Hello Class,
For those of you who have not received the textbook yet, chapter 4 discusses the different types of leadership style, such as autocratic, democratic, transformational, and others. If your textbook still has not arrived, search the internet to learn more about each. With that information and the seven decision making steps model listed below (you can also search the internet to learn more about each), you will be able to successfully complete the week two forum.

The year after next, the NCAA Women’s Final Four will be held in your city.

As a servant leader, I want to make sure I have built a strong team around me as the director of sports commission. Leaning on my team, I want to make sure that we gather all relevant information when it comes to hosting a Women’s Final Four. I can be a servant leader and give my employees the opportunity to do this on their own and trust they will gather all the information. We will divvy up our staff to make sure we understand what it takes to host a Women’s Final Four. We need to compare previous Final Four’s for both men and women to understand the proper steps to make sure it is equitable for what we are offering all teams that will be coming. As well we need to understand how many people would possibly be coming to our event, what they expect, and how people have previously felt about their visits to a Final Four. We need to make sure we have the venue to support everyone coming and give the teams coming to the proper venue, support, and accommodations to make sure they have the best time and give themselves the best chance to succeed. We need to continue to get these details by looking at previous sites that worked well and didn’t work well for them. Once all of this information is gathered, we can manage, discuss, and weigh the evidence of what we will do in order to provide the best hosting site, accommodations, hotels, food, practice venues, and hospitality possible to the players and fans. Overall,
