Critical Leadership Comparison Paper – due September 7. Using Northouse’s Leadership: Theory and Practice (8th ed., chapters 8-10 and others), plus other resources (PPT files, some relevant resources are listed on the Moodle course site as well as in the Leadership Bibliography provided at the beginning of the course), write a 5-7 page (double-spaced) paper in which you compare and contrast the three leadership approaches: (1) Transformational Leadership, (2) Servant Leadership, and (3) Authentic Leadership. Each of these leadership approaches has become popular recently, yet how do they relate to one another? Are they virtually the same, or are there differences? In 1-2 paragraphs only explain the core concepts of each leadership approach.
Then provide an integrated discussion comparing and contrasting the three approaches. At the end of the paper, you must be able to clearly articulate why each is different, or not, and which you think is the most effective approach of the three, including how you might implement this approach in your work setting. You must include an introduction and conclusion. A cover page is not necessary.
