Project Summary: Unit 2 Assignment: Interview with a Leader In your reading for this week, you are introduced to the theories of Transformational and Authentic Leadership (Northouse, 2012). Kouzes and Posner (2012) complement these theories by introducing us to the last of the five exemplary leadership practices, Enable Others to Act, specifically Fostering Collaboration. While examples from your text provide good foundational knowledge, learning from a leader you are familiar with will show you how these concepts can be applied in situations you can relate to more closely. In this 4-5 page APA compliant paper you will: 1. Provide an overview of the concepts and practices in your reading and identify the relationship between them. 2. Identify a leader who has been successful in creating organizational growth and change using the concepts and practices you have read about. This leader can be one from a current job, a volunteer group, or other activity you are engaged in, a classmate, or a family member. 3. Discuss why you selected this person and describe the leadership accomplishment that has supported your selection choice. 4. Interview this leader using the questions below: a. What has been your leadership training and educational background? b. How did you learn to be a leader? c. What were the circumstances that caused you to have to demonstrate leadership? d. How did you engage others in the leadership effort you were engaged in? e. Did you encounter obstacles? How did you overcome them? f.
