Discuss the following for this assignment:

  • Do you feel your leadership style is more task or relationship-oriented? Explain.
  • Think of a recent negative or positive experience where you were required to lead an individual or group of people (school, home, work, community, etc.). Describe where do you think you would plot on Blake and Mouton’s managerial leadership grid?

  • Which theory do you think best describes Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, and Nelson Mandela? Justify your answer.
