Assignment - Management Paper
Description - Write 8-10 pages analyzing the leadership strategies in a team experience.
Introduction - Practicing reflective and reflexive skills is essential to developing authentic leadership. This assessment is an opportunity to take all that you have learned throughout the course and apply it to a professional group setting, which will help you develop your leadership skills within the organization. Although the coaching that we have focused on up to this point has been done with individuals, it is important to realize that coaching can also be done with groups. Coaching can be used to help leaders meet organizational goals and fulfill the mission, vision, and values of the organization. As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration, and they are not required to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.
