Class Info: Class: BUS-253 Leadership and Mgt Skills Book: Leadership Theory, Application, & Skill Development by Robert N.Lussier, Christopher F. Achua, Sixth Edition Assignment Info: I have included three (3) videos for you to watch. This assignment is a “compare and contrast” assignment between each of the three (3) videos. After watching each of the videos, answer the following: 1. What is the definition of “strategic leadership” that each of the lecturers give us? What are the similarities? What are the differences? 2. What do each say about what the importance of understanding strategic leadership? 3. What do each say about how “power” (perceived and/or real) affects a leader’s ability to lead? 4. Is there any difference between strategic leadership, as practiced by the military, as opposed to strategic leadership that is practiced by industry/business? If so, what is that difference? If not, why is it not any different? Be thoughtful in your responses. There is a lot of important messages in these three videos relating to the impact that strategic leadership has on outcomes. Responses are to be narrative (essay) in nature and should be a minimum of three (3) full pages in length. No outlines. It is not necessary to retype the question in your responses.
