Discuss how you would rate the leader on authentic leadership and why, providing specific examples.

References to be no older than 5 years.

For this assignment, be sure that you have read this unit’s reading authentic leadership:

Choose a highly visible leader, someone you admire and would like to emulate. You will be looking to examine a situation when a leader’s cultural adaptation, cultural intelligence, ethics, and perhaps even moral and values have been tested and applying his/her actions to your own, perhaps developing, leadership style.

Consider the factors of Authentic Leadership; discuss how you would rate the leader on authentic leadership and why, providing specific examples. Also consider the issues brought up in the reading for this unit, particularly ethics and personal values. View the actions of the leader through multiple lenses. Do cultural situations impact the leader’s rating? Include whether their behavior was favorable or not.

Why is this leader someone you admire? As you examined this leader against the factors of Authentic Leadership, did he or she rate as highly as you thought? Look at this exercise and who you want to be as a leader — where do these things converge?

Submit a paper of about 500-1000 words that both demonstrates that you understand adaptive authentic leadership and is also reflective in nature. Be sure to cite your references using APA format.
