The textbook and articles we’ve read during OLCU 600 have done an excellent job of describing theoretical approaches to leadership, but there can be a gap between theory and the actual practice of leadership. The purpose of this assignment is to provide you with an opportunity to examine leadership in the real world by interviewing a leader who exemplifies outstanding leadership, and compare real-world practices to the theoretical concepts. Your selected leader may by a personal or professional contact who has a formal leadership position or leads informally without position power.
