Assignment – Examine Trait, Skills, Behavioral, Situational, and Path-goal approaches/theories of leadership

Prepare a presentation as if you were a leadership instructor. You are to prepare it so you will be able to teach a lesson to a class.

Using the five approaches/theories of leadership we have discussed in the first three weeks of class, document what the approach or theory is based on, how it is different than the others, and when it is best used. Consider the strengths and weaknesses of each one. Give examples of when each theory would work best.

For example, consider different positions like a construction plant manager or a school principal or a nurse. What approach would work best for different positions? Incorporate that into your lesson. Your goal is to have your audience (students) understand the five approaches and when to use them.

Examine trait, skills, behavioral, situational, and path-goal approaches/theories of leadership. Then prepare a presentation as if you were a leadership instructor to teach a lesson to a class.
