Leadership and Transformation
An important aspect of a graduate education is the ability to connect theory and practice - in other words, to apply ideas from scholarly research literature to your own experiences and use these concepts to improve your practice. The effective leader and manager will continually compare his or her experiences and approaches with recommendations from the management literature, and will critically evaluate what he or she reads based on prior knowledge and experience. This assignment will enable you to connect your transformational story to key leadership concepts. Additionally, it will help prepare you further for one element of your Final Project, a written critique of a leadership model or concept in relation to your own perspectives on leadership.
To complete your Individual Assignment:
Revise your transformational story based on your colleagues' feedback. Add a brief (approximately 500 words) explanation of how a key leadership concept discussed in this unit, or a previous unit, relates to your transformational story. Be sure to cite your references to the literature, include a reference list, and format your assignment in Harvard style. In your explanation, be sure to address the following:
- How does your transformational experience illustrate - or refute - a leadership concept from this unit, or a previous unit?
