In this essay, please define management and leadership (cite and reference support for your definitions). Then, explain the difference between management and leadership (use citations and reference to support your argument). Provide an illustration of an effective leader (living or deceased, famous or not famous) - why is this person an effective leader? What do you admire about this person? Next, based on the styles listed in Chapter 5, what leadership style best fits you and why?
Special Note: You may also go beyond the book if there is a leadership style that you feel is not mentioned that represents you such as authentic leadership, appreciative leadership, mindful leadership, transformational leadership, transactional leadership, etc ... just bring in citations to define and support which style best represents you.
Finish your essay with three to five things you can do to strengthen how you can best lead others, why you feel leadership is core to management function for supervisors, why someone would follow you (that is followership) and list one resource such as a book, a blog, audio book, or a journal/magazine (provide complete reference) that you would like to read next and why?
