Week 6 Assignment

Leadership Evaluation and Leadership Philosophy

In earlier topics, you explored the tenet of conscious
leadership and the influence of self-awareness on your leadership style. You
established that a clear understanding of your abilities, motivation, and goals
provides a firm foundation for leading others. Leadership studies demonstrate
that the most effective leaders know how to draw upon self-leadership skills to
in turn motivate and lead others to expand their strengths to ultimately better
serve the goals of an organization. For this assignment, you will continue to
study conscious leadership and look at a leadership example from contemporary
media and evaluate how well the particular leader exemplifies the qualities of
effective and ethical conscious leadership. Then, you will compose your own
leadership philosophy statement to articulate the qualities that will make you
an effective conscious leader of people and organizations.

Part 1:

For Part 1, select a relevant and topical leadership issue
from current news media that revolves around ethics and ethical decision
making. Topics must be approved by your instructor. Once approved, research the
situation and gather data in order to evaluate the dynamics of the situation.
Write an evaluation (500-750 words) of the situation that addresses the
following:

The power bases used by the leader.

The influence tactics used by the leader.

The leadership style of the leader.

The outcome (or potential outcome) of the situation.

Conclude by justifying whether or not you think this leader
supports the values of conscious capitalism. Is the leader’s leadership style
effective? Do you believe the leader acted ethically in the situation? Be sure
to consider each tenet of conscious capitalism in your leader evaluation.

Next, imagine yourself as a practitioner of servant
leadership. You have been appointed into the leadership role in this same
circumstance. Explain how the situation would be different. Address the four
criteria listed above in your discussion and incorporate the principles of
conscious capitalism by explaining how your personal values and style are
influenced by each tenet.

Part 2:

For Part 2, develop a leadership philosophy statement as an
appendix to your evaluation in Part 1. Begin by reviewing your self-assessment
results from Topic 2 and reflecting on what you have learned about effective
leadership and conscious capitalism in the course. Keep in mind that one’s
leadership philosophy is a unique statement that encapsulates your own view of
leadership, so the final product may vary, but your statement should
incorporate the following:

Personal values and beliefs that influence your leadership
style.

Past experiences or people that have influenced the
development of those values.

Expectations of self and others.

Leadership style and influence tactics.

Your goal is to create a distinctive statement (250-500
words) that incorporates the elements outlined above. The end product should
clearly articulate how you view yourself as a leader and how others would view
you as a leader. It should also make clear how you can contribute to the
success of other people and an organization as a whole.
