1.The authors, Kouzes & Posner, identified five leadership practices consistent behaviors through years of extensive research with thousands of participants. Discuss the section "Credibility is the Foundation of Leadership" addressing the following questions: a. Leaders do need to be honest. In the section titled "credibility is the Foundation of Leadership" of the article, the authors stated that 60% of their 75,000 respondents rank honesty as the top characteristic they look for in the leader they would follow. b. The social consequence of dishonesty is not as simple as they might seem. People often think that lies breed contempt and guilt, but they do much more. c. The natural consequences of dishonesty are that they make the person build a false persona. A fake identity leads to alienation from families and friends. And a life of fakeness ultimately alienates them from your true self. d. Yes, leaders do inspire. The ability to inspire is one of the single most important leadership skills that separates great leaders from average ones. e. An inspirational leader I have known is my mother. She is the person I look up to, At the age 17 she took upon herself the responsibilities of her entire household. She started working for a nominal fee and would provide for her family. 2. Review the outline for each of the five practices: Model the Way, In-spire a Shared Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, Encourage the Heart. a. I choose "Model the way" leadership practice. In this, Leaders establish principles concerning the way people constituents, peers, colleague, and customer alike should be treated and the way they should pursue goaks. b. Martin Luther King behaved in ways opposed by the said practice. He did not follow the rules and standards as how a person should be treated. He spoked up for himself and his people and set up new standards of excellence. 3. In group/ out group followers: a. Describe an example of a leader from your experience who created an "out group of followers through their behaviors and traits. Please be sure to discuss someone who created "out group", which means there was also an "in group of subordinates which this leader treated more favorably than the" out group. This question is not asking about a poor leader who treats everyone badly: A leader from my past who created out- group subordinates would be my hotel general manager. b. Identify and describe the specific behaviors this leader exhibited, as well as the leader's personality characteristics: The Myers Briggs Type Indicator is one of the most well- respected and widely- used personality type assessment tools. The Myers Briggs Type Indicator can be used a guide to help identify strengths, weaknesses, and the way you perceive and process information. C What were the consequences of this leader's treatment of the "out group to the department, other employees, and or company? The team leader should make this list but keep it confidential. The leader should study the list to determine what differentiates the two groups. D. How could this leader change to avoid the out group and create a happier, honest work culture where people feel respected for their talents and views? Leadership is extremely important for an organization. Great leaders help improve morale in an organization. Even during hard times, effective leaders can help their subordinates be confident and happy in their positions. 4. Leader Member Exchange: a. Based on my opinion, the leader Member exchange assumes that good leadership is the result of dyadic two- way relationships between managers and employees. The leader must be connected to their employees, which is possible through trust, respect, support, and loyalty. B. for me, the best example of the person who passes Leader- Member Exchange style is Coach John Wooden who is best known for his 27- year legacy at UCLA, where he led the Bruins to 10 NCAA national championships, a record that will most likely never be repeated. I like to read about and study people who generate this type of success, for what i can learn from them. 5. Personality, Behavior and Traits: A. My strengths are positive attitude and hardworking. This two helps me in my success. In every work and any kind of situation I went through I think positively and do my best with hard work B. Test: I register and test myself i feel like my opinion and the test points quite the same. C. Brief strengths: When I compared to test My strengths, the test of the questions is related to my strengths. I can say I am quite impressing with the test part. D. How to use strengths to become a good leader:1 can show great leadership strength by existing prepared to make adventurous decisions when confronted with risky circumstances. You will be prepared to direct your committee effectively if you can handle with anxiety, tension, and suspicion in formulating conclusions. Drocun Fa34 words Tet Predidtions On TAccesibity.
