Portfolio Part 1 due June 2, feel free to contact me if you have any questions on this assignment. These portfolio assignments are about YOUR leadership development, so you may write them in first person.
Portfolio Part 1 - Philosophy of Leadership Statement
The first part of the course long assignment is a Philosophy of Leadership Statement. For this portfolio entry you will examine and articulate your own leadership experiences and philosophy of leadership.
To do this you will read the assigned class readings, as well as doing your own independent research, and review your own leadership experience. You may also solicit the input of friends and family. Your finished paper will be 3-4 pages long (not including the cover page or reference page, and attachments) in APA (6th edition) format and will become the first item in your portfolio.
Your papers should discuss at a minimum:
• How you define leadership in public safety.
• Why you think leadership is necessary.
• The qualities and habits of a good leader.
• Explain and discuss your experiences as a leader and what you learned from them about leadership. (Remember this does not need to be experiences from a formal leadership position - but rather can be anytime you acted in the ways you identified above as being leadership.)
• The personal values and beliefs do you incorporate in your leadership behaviors.
• The leadership styles do you utilize.
• How you motivate people.
• How you respond to negativity or challenges to your ability to lead.
• Summary statement.
Format your assignment according to the following formatting requirements:
1. The answer should be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides.
2. The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
3. Also include a reference page. The Citations and references should follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.
