The purpose of this paper is to examine leadership qualities through a political psychology lens. Write as if you are a Political Psychologist. Choose a world leader. You are going to observe, analyze and evaluate this leader.
-Review the chapter on leadership and personality-Houghton Ch 8 (I attached the personality chapter as a pdf below in the files! It’s chapter 8: Personality and Beliefs pg 101-113)
-Who is the leader that you are going to discuss? What party are they running with?
-What is the background and history of the leader? Experience?
-Why is the leader in their position? Look at their website
-What is the leader’s leadership style? Observe the leader in a recent debate.
-Based on your observations, how does the leader talk about themselves? What would you say their leadership style is?
-How do other people talk about the leader? Both supporters and opponents.
-How is the leader currently doing in the polls? Why is the leader displaying these poll numbers?
-Explain and interpret the leader’s leadership style with examples.
-Evaluate the leader’s style. What works and what does not work in their leadership style?
-How do you define an effective president? As a president, what would make this leader an effective president? What would make them ineffective?
-Include relevant information, but limit your scope of information. You have to continually ask yourself: is this a NEED to know piece of information, or just interesting to know.
-When choosing a leader-Choose someone that is interesting to you or choose someone you want to know more about. Consider choosing a leader from the opposite political party as you. Really take some time to decide on a leader.
