Analyze a Failure of Leadership
Ask participants to identify to their partner someone who had trouble as a leader.
Suggestion : Give your own examples to illustrate the points about leadership you want to emphasize. Cite prominent examples from recent business history. Avoid politics.
Emphasize the importance of learning from the example of others Caution participants not to blindly adopt the selected styles, mannerisms, practices, and philosophy of their favorite leaders.
