Our attributes and competencies play a significant role in our effectiveness as leaders, where success is not just a factor of what we know, but how we represent ourselves in the workplace and what we do with that knowledge. This is the essence of the Be-Know-Do model, which captures the fundamental attributes, behaviors, and characteristics reflected in the most effective leaders. For this assignment, students will choose a leader with whom they are familiar and prepare a short essay discussing how the elements of the Be-Know-Do model were—or were not—demonstrated and the overall impact of their leadership style.
This assignment will be submitted electronically as a Word file.
