3. Pick one scene and discuss what you would have done differently as a supervisor and why.

4. How does a high-stress environment affect supervisory techniques, as compared or a less stressful environment?

5. What supervisory trait do you most relate to and why? You should include a personal account from your life.

6. Why do supervisors fail if they are using a "textbook" technique? Explain using the scenes from the movie/show or your own personal life to enhance your explanation.

If you have already seen the movie or TV show episode, you may "skim" it to refresh yourself.

If you do not want to watch any of the above movies or TV shows, you must email me by week 6 for an alternate assignment. Here are some ideas for alternate assignments:

Alternate topics include Leaders in the News; Corporate Leadership Failures/Successes and/or Government Failures/Successes, Leaders in Politics, Visionary Leaders.
