Week 5
Project
Course Project: Leadership Training
It will take more than a week’s effort to adequately
complete this major assignment. Plan time to start the research and other work
for this assignment earlier than the week in which it is due.
The organization you selected in Week 1 is designing
training for all the managers at all levels. It wants to base the training on
one leadership theory.
Tasks:
Write a paper recommending a leadership theory. Address the
following:
Summarize key details about the organization and two or
three of the most important insights you have developed so far about the
organization during your course project. This one paragraph summary should
provide just enough information that someone who has not ready any of your
papers so far would have a brief background for understanding your project
organization.
Why do you believe your chosen leadership theory is the best
for your organization? What is your rationale? What research can you cite to
support your choice? What are the factors in your organization that make your
selected leadership theory the best choice?
How will using this theory positively impact the following
variables?
Managers’ behavior toward subordinates and its effect on
subordinates
Communication
Motivation of subordinates
Group and team behavior
Decision making
Culture
Be sure that you conduct the research necessary to support
your conclusions and cite your sources appropriately.
