SITXHRM003 Lead and Manage People
Paper: I The Leader
Description:
The old-fashioned view of leadership is that leaders are marked out for leadership from early on in their lives; and that if you are not a born leader, there's little you can do to become one. However, the modern view of the leadership is that through patience, persistence and hard work, you can be a truly effective leader, just as long as you make the effort needed (mindtools).
In this assessment task, you will be required to write a paper on self, "I The Leader", visualising yourself as a future leader and discussing your own leadership style and qualities based on your own perception of self. This exercise will also be useful in identifying self-development opportunities in the subsequent assessment task.
The paper must be written in your own words and appropriate referencing and citation must be used in all external references (preferred: Harvard referencing system: Your trainer/assessor will provide you with referencing guidelines. There is no specific structure of paper, but it will be expected that you will present your paper with at least three identifiable sections; Introduction, body (main headings) and conclusion.
