You are a manager in a large company, and you are assigned to a mentor. Your mentor is very excited that you are taking this particular course and has therefore asked you to develop and share your own personal theory of leadership. Your mentor wants to make sure that your personal development is grounded in theory and practice and so has asked you to first demonstrate the foundation of your leadership approach. To do this, you will choose three theories—a combination of classic and contemporary—that you have studied in this course, in addition to selecting three leaders who exemplify your chosen theories and three who are anti-exemplary.

PART ONE: THIS SHOULD BE THREE PAGES LONG
You will analyze each theory for its strengths and weaknesses and evaluate the leaders you have identified in relation to those theories. You will use the concepts and lessons from this part of the final project to inform the second part, in which you apply the theories to an organization and articulate your personal leadership philosophy.

Your work must address these critical elements:
I. Introduction
Introduce your three chosen theories and three chosen leaders. Be sure to provide a brief explanation of why you have selected these in particular.
How do they apply to your personal leadership style or the development of one?
II. Analysis of Established Theories

A. Theories Review
1. Summarize the major principles of the chosen theories and the potential impact on empowerment and emotional intelligence.
2. Explain how these major principles look through the lenses of those in the roles of power and influence in an organization.

B. Theories Critique
1. Analyze the strengths of the three theories and their potential impacts on the individuals, groups, and organizational levels.
2. Analyze the weaknesses of the three theories and their potential impacts on the individuals, groups, and organizational levels.

C. Theories Application
1. Evaluate the effectiveness of the leadership styles of the leaders who exemplify your selected theories. For instance, what aspects
of their leadership styles align with your identified leadership theories?
2. Evaluate the effectiveness of the leadership styles of the leaders who are the anti-exemplary of your selected theories. For instance,
what aspects of their leadership style(s) do not support your identified leadership theories?
3. Apply the selected leadership theories to your past or present organizational context. This is where you think about the interplay of
the selected leadership theories and the individual, group, and organizational levels of your past or present organizational context.

III. Conclusion
1. Summarize how the theories can alter organizational decision making in relation to roles of power and influence, especially in relationship to your
own personal leadership style.

PART 2- THIS IS THE SECOND PORTION OF THE PAPER AND  SHOULD BE TWO PAGES LONG.

You are a manager in a large company, and you are assigned to a mentor. Your mentor is very excited that you are taking this particular course and has therefore asked you to develop and share your own personal theory of leadership. This person wants you to be very detailed in this process and submit a report for review.

For Part II, you will use your theoretical review and critique from Part I to develop your personal theory of leadership.

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Personal Theory of Leadership
A. Introduction: Briefly summarize the theories you analyzed in Part I, focusing on an overview of the key aspects from that analysis that will
inform the discussion of your personal leadership style and its application.
B. Identify aspects of the theories of leadership discussed earlier that you would like to incorporate into your personal theory of leadership. Be
sure to include the potential impact on transformational change.
C. Determine how theory and practice intersect in your personal leadership theory. How do the exemplary leaders inform your personal
theory of leadership?
D. Differentiate which aspects of your theory are essential to you and which aspects are more flexible and therefore less essential. Be sure to
address potential impact on internal and external stakeholders.
E. Differentiate which aspects of your theory seem the most challenging and the most comfortable to you and why. What are the intersections
between these aspects and those you identified as essential and flexible?
