Examine Trait, Skills, Behavioral, Situational, and Path-goal approaches/theories of leadership Prepare a presentation as if you were a leadership instructor. You are to prepare it so you will be able to teach a lesson to a class. Using the five approaches/theories of leadership we have discussed in the first three weeks of class, document what the approach or theory is based on, how it is different than the others, and when it is best used. Consider the strengths and weaknesses of each one. Give examples of when each theory would work best. For example, consider different positions like a construction plant manager or a school principal or a nurse. What approach would work best for different positions? Incorporate that into your lesson. Your goal is to have your audience (students) understand the five approaches and when to use them. Remember that your presentation should not just be words. You should make it professional and interesting. Make sure that any photos or diagrams you may use are open source (while still citing your source). Do not copy definitions from the book. Use your own words to get your students to understand the different aspects of the theories.
