Description

Essay focuses on a prominent leader who you admire, and it can be anyone of your choosing. There are three main components that you need to address fully in your paper:

  • Explain whether the leader’s style is transformational or transactional.
  • Describe the leadership characteristics that the leader demonstrates.
  • Describe the aspects of servant leadership that the leader exhibits.

The body (or text) of the paper should be three to four pages in length, in addition to the title and references pages. So, the total length of your paper needs to be at least 5+ pages.

Two scholarly sources, plus the text, must be used. This means there needs to be at least 3+ sources on the references page.
