Identify a leader with whom you are familiar. You can use a pseudonym if you wish (it will be better that you pick a leader that you have a firm opinion about i.e. either one that you think was particularly successful or unsuccessful).
Provide an overview of the leader you have chosen, the context in which they ‘lead’ and your reason for choosing them. Then, drawing upon relevant theory, explain the reasons for the leader’s success (or failure). You will need to assess aspects like the leader’s traits, style and engagement with situational factors.
Finally, what does your analysis suggest about the importance of leadership in contemporary organisations
