Part 1:

For Part 1, select a relevant and topical leadership issue from current news media that revolves around ethics and ethical decision making. Write an evaluation (500-750 words) of the situation that addresses the following:

1. 1.The power bases used by the leader.
2. 2.The influence tactics used by the leader.
3. 3.The leadership style of the leader.
4. 4.The outcome (or potential outcome) of the situation.

Conclude by justifying whether or not you think this leader supports the values of conscious capitalism. Is the leader's leadership style effective? Do you believe the leader acted ethically in the situation? Be sure to consider each tenet of conscious capitalism in your leader evaluation.

Next, imagine yourself as a practitioner of servant leadership. You have been appointed into the leadership role in this same circumstance. Explain how the situation would be different. Address the four criteria listed above in your discussion and incorporate the principles of conscious capitalism by explaining how your personal values and style are influenced by each tenet.

Part 2:

For Part 2, develop a leadership philosophy statement as an appendix to your evaluation in Part 1. Begin by reflecting on what you have learned about effective leadership and conscious capitalism. Keep in mind that one's leadership philosophy is a unique statement that encapsulates your own view of leadership, so the final product may vary, but your statement should incorporate the following:

1. 1.Personal values and beliefs that influence your leadership style.
2. 2.Past experiences or people that have influenced the development of those values.
3. 3.Expectations of self and others.
4. 4.Leadership style and influence tactics.

Your goal is to create a distinctive statement (250-500 words) that incorporates the elements outlined above. The end product should clearly articulate how you view yourself as a leader and how others would view you as a leader. It should also make clear how you can contribute to the success of other people and an organization as a whole.
