Case study – Obama
The case study is intended to professionally present an evaluation of a significant and honourable leader whom you admire and respect. The case study must present a clear connection between your choice of leader and a theoretical approach to Leadership. Preferably choose a leader from your own culture or New Zealand, but this is not essential. Your case study profile should address the following: 1. Discuss the rationale for your choice of leader (what makes this leader honourable? why do you admire this leader? Provide clear justification of being honourable with references i.e. how is the leader honourable?) 2. Context (briefly describe and outline their characteristics and achievements) 3. Examine the approach to leading (how do they lead? What is their style? What is their theoretical approach to leading?) 4. Discuss and evaluate Strengths and weaknesses (Provide a concise analysis) 5. Reflect on Important lessons (What have you learned from investigating this leader?) 6. References in APA 6th
