Assignment 1: Adaptive and Global Leadership
In this Assignment, you will focus on Adaptive Leadership from a global perspective. When approaching this Assignment, do so from an international and global view. When selecting a contemporary leader, make sure you can find enough information on that leader to help you conduct a solid analysis and apply critical thinking.
This Assignment will assess your knowledge based on the following outcome:
GM502-3: Practice global interconnectedness as it applies to your field of study.
Northouse (2016) explains that Adaptive Leadership Theory focuses on the adaptations required of people in response to changing environments. Rather than being Leader centered, this theory is centered around the follower. One underlying problem for the leader in using Adaptive Leadership Theory is that he or she may not be able to assess situational needs effectively when co-workers or direct reports work virtually or outside the geographic boundaries the leader is primarily located in. Using your Readings for this week, your work in Unit 4 on virtual team leadership and at least three outside references from academically credible sources, in this 4–5 page APA compliant paper you will:
1. Define at least three major problems that a leader encounters when attempting to assess the demands of a situation given a global role. Specifically, what cultural barriers might a leader encounter when working internationally? You may also include information on whether the leader worked in a virtual or face-to-face situation.
2. Present the results of research and best practices you have completed which would resolve these problems. Provide at least three best practices that address the specific issues you identified.
3. Describe any personal examples you may have with a leader, including your role as a leader who used or attempted to use Adaptive Leadership Theory in a global/international role for problem resolution. You may also include information on whether the leader worked in a virtual or face-to-face situation.
4. Research examples of contemporary leaders who work in a global context that may have used Adaptive Leadership Theory. You may also include information on whether the leader worked in a virtual or face-to-face situation.
5. Based on what you have discovered this week, what specific actions can you take to implement this style into your current leadership approach? Be as specific as you can when selecting an action and include how you will be able to measure the effectiveness of this new approach.
