You may see leaders in obvious positions, but sometimes leaders appear in places you don’t expect. How does this person use their power for good, and have a positive influence on people?

 

Leadership comes in many shapes and forms.

You may see leaders in obvious positions, but sometimes leaders appear in places you don’t expect.

Think about people whom you have encountered in your lifetime.

Whether it is observed in your workplace, school, or everyday life, there are likely behaviors and situations that take place that exemplify leadership.

 

Read through your Chapters 12 and 13 and review the different types of leadership, as well as the power and influence that comes with the roles.

Identify a Leader:

Come up with one example of a person in hospitality that you want to share about who you think represents a true leader.

If you can, identify someone that you personally have interacted with and can share in detail about.

Share a brief narrative (tell the story) of how you came to the conclusion they are a great leader (You can use a pseudonym if you prefer this person remains Anonymous, but you must identify an actual person).

Remember, the person does not have to be a position in high power to be a leader! I’ve worked with people who were not in leadership positions but were great leaders who had great influence.

If you cannot think of someone in your circle of influence, then you can do some research online to identify a hospitality professional that would fit the description.

After doing some research and reflection, identify whether your identified person is a manager or a leader, and why.

Identify a minimum of 2 leadership types and/or perspectives that would apply to the person you identified.

Explain why you think this person is as you described, and reference you textbook and any other research you have found.

Finally, describe the power and influence that your identified person has.

Do they have possess organizational power or personal power, or both?

What kind of tactics have they used to influence others?

How does this person use their power for good, and have a positive influence on people?

Share examples and detailed descriptions, referencing your textbook where applicable.

You must provide a minimum of two in-text citations and/or references to resources from the course or that you have researched (one of which is your textbook).

The goal of the initial post is to answer the discussion question fully, bringing perspectives from the assigned readings, your own experiences, and your own analysis.
